Here's Jim Ross at Clash of the Champions XII saying foreign object, but quickly correcting himself. I wonder if they fined him for that.

<p class="text-xs text-slate-350 leading-relaxed break-words">My favourite example is from Wrestlewar 91. Butch Reed catches a pair of brass knuckles from Teddy Long and accidentally nails his partner, Ron Simmons. Ross says &quot;Reed has an international object *as they say*.&quot;
Also, what a catch by Butch Reed, right?</p>

&lt;p class=&quot;text-xs text-slate-350 leading-relaxed break-words&quot;&gt;The term would become a bit of a joke. Obviously, Ted Turner didn&amp;#39;t mean for this to happen, and it almost sounds like an act of malicious compliance from the commentators.&lt;/p&gt;

&amp;lt;p class=&amp;quot;text-xs text-slate-350 leading-relaxed break-words&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Wrestlers would make fun of it. Mick Foley makes one swipe at International Object in his memoir, Have a Nice Day.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;

&amp;amp;lt;p class=&amp;amp;quot;text-xs text-slate-350 leading-relaxed break-words&amp;amp;quot;&amp;amp;gt;As for how seriously it was taken at CNN, I don&amp;amp;amp;#39;t know. Apparently the fine for saying &amp;amp;amp;amp;quot;foreign&amp;amp;amp;amp;quot; was $100, which doesn&amp;amp;amp;#39;t not seem like that much money.&amp;amp;lt;/p&amp;amp;gt;
