I thought that when wrestlers were in holds and slapping themselves* they were signalling the other guy what moves to do, like a baseball catcher

In all fairness, this is not far off the mark because for a sleeper or chinlock, there could be spot-calling going on. And some guys might have short hand for stuff like 'two slaps means shoot me off the ropes, dropdown, leapfrog, clothesline'.
