The term 'jabroni' is suggested to be originated by WWE Hall of Famer The Iron Sheik. However, it was The Rock who picked up the term and crossed it over into the mainstream during his rise to superstardom during the Attitude Era in the late 1990s.

In addition to jabroni, Dictionary.com also added new words to their website, such as 'amirite', 'ish' and 'janky".

Did The Rock coin the term 'jabroni'?

While it is believed that WWE Hall of Famer The Iron Shiek created the term 'jabroni,' the true origins of the word are actually unknown, which is often the case with many words.

When previously asked about the origins of the term 'jabroni'. The Rock was quick to credit the Iron Shiek. During an interview for a documentary about The Iron Shiek's career, The Rock pointed out the influence that the WWE Hall of Famer had on The Great One's career, as well as confirming that 'jabroni' was "The Iron Shiek's word":

"His impact on my career has really been profound. Now the word jabroni is connected to me. When a lot of people think, 'oh, jabroni, oh, yeah, yeah, it's The Rock's word.' No, no, no, no. It's not my word. It's the Iron Sheik's word."

According to Dictionary.com, the word 'jabroni' could have originated from the Upper Italian dialect giambone, which means 'ham'.
