when ron says 'total shoot'...

[West.Coast.Skippy]

when ron says something is a 'total shoot', do you believe him?

[underdog]

Sometimes.

[disneyspy]

totally

[sailor]

Sometimes.

word.

[West.Coast.Skippy]

word.

yeah, i don't think 'total shoot' has always been a 'total shoot'.

[Donnie Iris]

I think he intends honesty but misuses the phrase. Isn't he really trying to say "this is a straight shoot" rather than "total shoot"?

[disneyspy]

i think its an old professional wrestling term for "no bull shit"

[IamFogHat]

What's the point of saying it otherwise?

[ANC]

I've never heard or noticed Ron's saying 'total shoot'....

[hammersavage]

I've never heard or noticed Ron's saying 'total shoot'....

This a work or a shoot?

[West.Coast.Skippy]

What's the point of saying it otherwise?

the point would be to create excitement, tension, interest in what was happening on air. i'm not convinced that he fibs about 'total shoots' from time to time, but i suspect he does, for the sake of heightening the drama of whatever is going on at the time. but i could be wrong! :help:

"this is a total shoot,disney controls so much shit in orlando that when the disney spy would call in, WJRR would start experiencing technical problems"

kinda yeah. a shoot is basically breaking kayfabe (keeping the intended reality of wrestling going) and telling how you really feel about something.

[Death Metal Moe]

I think everytime I've noticed him saying it I felt what he said afterwards was pretty much 100% truthful. I don't think he's above throwing it out there to get your attention but I feel most of the time he uses it, he's being honest afterwards.

[Farthammer]

I have never heard the Phrase total shoot before Mr. B started saying in on one of his many radio shows. Must be a Philly thing.

[disneyspy]

first time i heard it was in the florida days and macho man and the hulkster were on air,i cant remember which one said it but i took it as meaning"and this is no bull shit" but as jab said its some wrestling term that i imagine has been around for awhile

[tanless1]

it takes alot of words to fill 4hrs

[Meataball23]

I believe its 100% serious when he says it. Just like he wont say a secret list if its written down

[Fuzz Whatley]

Shoot=Truth
Work=Lies
:drunk:

[Hottub]

It's the very last thing he said before Your Mom's Box when they left JFK.

[STC-Dub]

It depends...

[Gvac]

Bob Dylan taught me that to live outside the law you must be honest.

Therefore, my answer is "yes."

[BlackSpider]

Only if he prefaces it with "literally"...

[boobieman]

Wait Wait you mean to tell me that Ron actually Lies????

SEEYAYAYAYAYAYAAA

[pussyhound]

I think fez having a secret is a work. Ya see these boys ain't doin it for the suits in the front offices and the clothes fez wears, well thats what they're all wearin on wall street daddy.

[Serpico1103]

When he says "total shoot" it is akin to a director yelling "action." "Total shoot", and then an elaborate well thought out bit begins.

[Brad in Bama]

I think most times it's more him pulling back the curtains a little. Not all, but a little.

"this is a total shoot,disney controls so much shit in orlando that when the disney spy would call in, WJRR would start experiencing technical problems"

WJRR....the rock station!

[disneyspy]

WJRR....the rock station!

my friends used to joke cuz theyre promo was "JRR,just ron and ron in the morning,just rock and roll the rest of the day" and they would say "ya except when the disney spy calls in,then they have technical prrrrobbbbblems"

[cougarjake13]

shoot in proffesional wrestling is something that is real. Alot of times in the 90s of wcw when the nwo were around they'd go to the ring and cut a shoot promo,where they'd shit on people FOR REAL. especially ric flair and scott steiner they hated each other.

in japan wrestling is potrayed as a real sport. their isn't as much of the goofy shit mcmahon does,so before matches they cut shoot promos on each other,not talking up their character or any weirdness mcmahon has introduced to be the pro wrestling norm.
Work is one of the most commonly used terms in wrestling. It means many things:

a wrestling match is called a "work," and the wrestlers involved are said to work the match. This means that the fight was choreographed and the outcome was predetermined.

that's why when fez and dave are at each other's throats and ron asks if this is a work its probably cuz he isn't sure if fez and dave are really at each others throats.


sry for the long post.
