THE IMPACT CREATIVE TEAM, POTATOES IN WRESTLING, UPSIDE DOWN ORIGINATOR AND MORE

By Mike Johnson on 2021-06-12 10:00:00

I've heard the term potato used for pro wrestling - what does it mean?

When one wrestler "potatoes" another, it means they accidentally (or perhaps not so accidentally) nailed the other legitimately hard.

Who handles the Impact Wrestling booking?

The core of the current creative team is Scott D'Amore, RD Evans, Jimmy Jacobs and Tommy Dreamer.  

Who books Ring of Honor?

Currently, Hunter Johnston aka Delirious.

We see all these upside down hanging moves, but who started them?

The first person I can recall doing it regularly on national TV was Shelly Martinez as Ariel in WWE's ECW but I believe part of it comes for Tajiri popularizing the Tarantula in the United States.

Do you ever see Elizabeth going into the WWE Hall of Fame?

I think it would be silly to think that WWE wouldn't want to put her in at some point.  My guess is it would be a Legacy wing addition.
