Professional wrestling has accrued a considerable amount of jargon throughout its existence.[ In the past, professional wrestlers used such terms in the presence of fans so as not to reveal the nature of the business.][ Into the 21st century, widespread discussion on the Internet has popularized these terms.][ Many of the terms refer to the financial aspects of professional wrestling in addition to in-ring terms.]
