We hear it talked about, but I've never seen the whole list before - this is from a few years ago though as it's dated 2008. It's actually quire funny.

They never want to use the phrase "the title is on the line". It's not creative enough apparently.

The highlight though -

Words to avoid:
"belt", "strap" - we don't have belts or straps. We have Championships, Titles. The belt represents something.

So they're not allowed to use the term "belt" because they don't have belts. Then they proceed to call it a belt. Good one. My girlfriend is quite drunk right now and even she spotted that and laughed about it.

Wait you can't use "me" or "I" ... how is one supposed to refer to onesself? Like I just did? lol

To be fair I agree with 80% of that list... just some of them are stupid.

Although it should be pointed out this is from 2008 so some of my criticisms may be no longer applicable.

I bet most of this is still relevant. Saw this this morning on a wrestling news site so this one has only recently come to light, despite being nearly about 8-9 years old. It seems that this is only for commentators as reports I have seen only link it to them. Makes sense with commentators not being able to say me or I. Would be a bit more difficult for wrestlers, but commentators don't need to refer to themselves when speaking.

Love how they're not allowed to say interesting.

Just another reason WWE is insanely over produced. I also hate they cant ever call something just the championship. In promos they always gotta say the whole thing "WWE UNIVERSAL CHAMPIONSHIP!" It always sounds so forced and not natural. Gah.
