Today is all about the letter J in the world of wrestling. I never realized there were so many off the wall terms until I started looking through these posts. It tends to become second nature when you hear them at a match. Take notes there will be a quiz at the end of this series!
Job, a scheduled loss (also "jobbing", "jobber", "jabroni", and "job cleanly"; compare "screwjob").
Jobber, a wrestler whose primary function is losing to better-known wrestlers. Some synonyms include preliminary wrestler, enhancement talent, loser, jabroni, babaganoosh and ham-and-egger.
Jobber to the Stars, a mid-card wrestler who is fairly well-known and gains victories over lesser-known wrestlers on occasion, but is primarily used as a jobber to talent higher on the card than him.
Joshi, Japanese women's wrestling.
Juice, steroids (see also gas and roids). Also, blood (see juicing).
Juicing, bleeding (frequently, but not always, self-inflicted) (compare "blading" and "hard-way juicing").
