Evil Counterpart/Professional Wrestling

Examples of s in include:


 * Inverted by Shawn Michaels in the angle for his Wrestlemania XXV match with The Undertaker. The Heartbreak Kid casted himself as a sort of Good Counterpart to Big Evil, even going so far as to do a "holy" rendition of the Man from the Darkside's entire gimmick: white hat and longcoat, druids in white robes, Cherubic Choir instead of Ominous Latin Chanting, a massive Cheshire Cat Grin instead of a Death Glare after taking the hat off, quoting scripture from the Bible as opposed to something that sounds like out of a Tome of Eldritch Lore, and for the piece de resistance at Wrestlemania XXV itself, descending from the rafters of the Reliant Astrodome on a white chariot, as if God Himself sent the Showstopper from the heavens to smite the undefeated streak of the Deadman. That said, considering he initiated the feud and was playing the cocky heel, it might be a case of Light Is Not Good.
 * His "cockiness" was a stated defiance of a man claiming to be the devil who will steal his opponent's souls, after intimidating them to psychological submission through endless mindgames. And it was Taker who initiated the feud when he confronted Shawn during his feud with JBL.
 * Undertaker and Kane, when they feuded, were sort of counterparts to each other. Which one was evil often switched, but usually Kane fit this role. During their Wrestlemania XIV match, Undertaker found himself on the receiving end of many of his own moves.
 * The Undertaker once fought against an imposter Undertaker, and Kane once fought against an imposter Kane.
 * Dolph Ziggler and Kofi Kingston are longtime rivals to each other and have quite a few similarities. They're small and athletic, have a wide plethora of moves, and they both get angry quite easily, but while Kofi is kind and honorable, Dolph is arrogant, cocky, and a major league cheater.
 * In the Global Wrestling Federation, a wrestler called the "Dark Patriot" was introduced to challenge their main hero, the red-white-and-blue-garbed Patriot. D.P. (actually Eddie Gilbert's brother Doug) wore all black with red stars.
 * During their feuds around 2001-2003, Kurt Angle was kind of an evil counterpart to Chris Benoit. Both are extremely strong and talented submission and suplex specialists, and tended to match each other move for move. But Benoit was The Quiet One who treated wrestling as a simple job, while Kurt was boastful and prone to cheating.
