Enhancement talent

Enhancement talent

Extracted from the Wikipedia article Job (professional wrestling).

Wrestlers who routinely (or exclusively) lose matches while having little to no offense are known as jobbers. A wrestler skilled at enhancing the matches they lose, as opposed to a jobber, is called a carpenter. Carpenters often put up a fight against a wrestler higher up on the card before eventually losing. In the post-kayfabe era the term has taken on a negative connotation, leading to the use of the neutral term enhancement talent.
