More terms you need to know! These are just a few of the letter K terms you might run across. Now we should all be clear on Kayfabe huh?
* Kayfabe, term used to describe the illusion (and up-keep of the illusion) that professional wrestling is not staged (i.e. that the on-screen situations between performers represent reality). The term is said to have been loosely derived from the Pig Latin pronunciation of the word "fake" ("akefay").
* Kick out, when a wrestler breaks a pin by kicking upward, usually right before the ref counts to three.
* Kill, to diminish or eliminate heat or drawing power. There are a variety of ways to do this, but mostly it is done by having a wrestler do too many jobs. A house can be killed by too many screw-job endings. Synonymous with bury.
