8 Stupidest Banned Words In The WWE

7. International

The word "international" is banned because, well€ I€™m not quite sure. The guidelines state that the word €œglobal€ should be used instead. One possible explanation for this is the slight differences in the definitions of the two words. The word €œglobal€ refers to matters concerning the entire earth, whilst the word €œinternational€ is defined as something that concerns two or more nations. Therefore, describing the WWE as having a €œglobal appeal€ as opposed to having an €œinternational appeal€ does actually seem to make a more impressive claim. But let€™s face it, prior to reading that last paragraph how many of you would have actually ever distinguished between the words €œglobal€ and €œinternational€ rather than just using them interchangeably? I for one wouldn€™t have (I had to Google the difference between the two for the purposes of this article), so I€™m assuming that I wasn€™t alone on this. Whilst there is a slight distinction between the two words, the word €œinternational€ is arguably the more accurate word the WWE should be using in most instances. When referring to their fan-base they can accurately state that they have €œinternational appeal€ whereas they can only speculate that their appeal is €œglobal€. Given the number of €œinternational€ Superstars that have fought for the WWE over the years, it also seems particularly odd to take away one of the words that could be used to describe them. After all, the term €œglobal Superstars€ doesn€™t really make as much sense.
