A new PWTorch has been launched this week in the iTunes store. Its a comprehensive list of insider pro wrestling terms from today and yesterday, dating back to some of the early antiquated terms of the early 1900s. Over 200 terms defined and available now for purchase in the iTunes store. Just search "pwtorch" in the iTunes store to purchase it.

If you want to impress your friends with established insider terms they may not have heard before, including some used exclusively within the inner-circles of wrestlers, bookers, and producers, this is a list that youll want at your fingertips. If you are curious about what some obscure term you read actually means, this is the source.

The historical origins of terminology are revealed. Learn what people inside the industry mean when they have said "stooge," "spud," "showing light," "Sheakespeare," "schmoz," "sandbag" (and thats just a few in the "S" category). What is a "rizat?" Or a "marshmallow"? An "outlaw promotion?" A "marriage" in the context of wrestling? Or "going bush"? Whats "bozark"? And what does "kayfabe" really mean?

Its a glossary that has been published and advertised before in USA Today, the Sporting News, and many national pro wrestling magazines over the last 20 years, updated and available now in digital format in the form of an iPhone and iTouch App.
