  Rarely, if a wrestler is especially massive, the crowd might respond Dużo, "Plenty".

Songs

• Mam tak samo jak ty: Sen o Warszawie by Czesław Niemen, sometimes sang before PpW shows begin. Also a hymn of Legia Warszawa, so used by extension for babyface reception of Legia Łysych.
• Nie rzucim ziemi skąd nasz ród: Rota, a 1908 patriotic poem by Maria Konopnicka. Sometimes heard in matches involving German heels.
• Pan kiedyś stanął nad brzegiem: this is Barka, a religious song that was especially liked by the Polish Pope John Paul II. Fans may start to randomly sing it at 21:37 (9:37 PM), the exact hour of his death. It is not in the Pope's memory, however, but rather the opposite - mocking his cult deeply enshrined in Polish Catholicism. Also often sang for Greg from Kombat Pro Wrestling in his Pope of Polish Wrestling gimmick, which he seems to enjoy.

Production issues

Wrestler-specific

• Bartoszyce, a gdzie to kurwa jest? - "Bartoszyce, where the fuck is that?": used to insult Gustav Gryffin's hometown.
  Sometimes used for other heel wrestlers' cities, in which case it may need extra words to match the rhythm. For Chemik's four-syllable hometown of Wejherowo no padding is needed, but for Isnorr's Poznań the chant starts with Miasto Poznań ("Poznań city").
