With money tight, a carny would call home collect, telling the operator their name was "Kay Fabian". This was a code for letting the people at home know that they had made it safely to the next town. The family would then deny the call. A carny could therefore communicate without paying for the cost of a phone call or telegram.

The term "kayfabe" is thought to have originated as carny slang for "protecting the secrets of the business". However, another tradition holds that "kayfabe" was merely Pig Latin for "be fake", and thus an instruction by one carny to another not to break character at the moment a "rube" or "mark" was close by.

I use to listen to the Bubba The Love Sponge show a lot and when he had Hogan in the studio, they would go into carny speaking in code. It was actually amazing seeing if you could decipher what they were saying to one another.

So it's a secret language used in the Circuit now!!

Whoever devise a way of speaking like that surely must have not been and some good stuff!

I don't know about in the Circuit now, but when Hogan was running in the 80s and 90s he said that he used it. So I have to assume a lot of the old school wrestlers that I grew up with used it to talk to each other.

so HHH will pedigree Punk and cost him the title...setting up a 2011 Corporation Angle with HHH and Cena playing the parts of Vince and Rocky while Punk plays the Mankind role......(or Del Rio cashing in MITB, which makes more sense since RAW will need a Mexican American champion when they broadast Raw from Mexico City later this year....so Cena will play the Mankind role and Punk will go back to the mid card)

so following that logic....Beth Phoenix is going to win the IC belt.....then Punk will work the mic against her and eventually have a match with her where there will be a double pinfall....leading HHH to announce Punk and Beth as co-champions...much like Steph did with Chyna and Jericho....

then HHH will bring in Goldberg at either theSurvivor Series, or the Rumble to setup a Goldberg/Undertaker match at WM 28...where HHH will try to cost Taker his streak...but the Undertaker will be motivated by a "higher power" and thwart Hunters plans.......

The Undertaker will then go on to kidnap Kelly Kelly and force her to marry him....but Cena will try to rescue her...only to be crucified in the ring which will be followed by the revelation that "the higher power" has been HHH all along and Cena will facehim in a streetfight for the COO position.

Great booking all around!
