In professional wrestling, a wrestler's workrate is somewhat synoymous with his talent level. This term comes from the fact that most of the action in pro wrestling is a work, a creation designed to play to the audience, or "work" the crowd. Hence a wrestler with a good workrate is one who can pull the work off to maximize crowd reaction.

In professional wrestling, workrate refers to the ratio of action in a wrestling match to the innaction. A worker is said to have a "high workrate" if he or she has little inaction in the match.
