The "saved by the bell" is more likely from boxing, where if an opponent was knocked down and the ref had started to count to 10 but the bell rang before he got to 10, thus ending the round and the downed opponent could be helped up by his trainer and get a little time to recover before the next round started.
Where did piss poor come from?
