Line 1:

When a nice, normal [[Professional Wrestling]] character suddenly goes into a rage, you've hit his [[Berserk Button]].
* Typically, when fans jump the rail or even flinch in a threatening manner toward a wrestler, the wrestler's first act is to beat the holy hell out of the fan. Even [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fzr6-Z1_wnw referees] are not to be messed with.
Line 17 ⟶ 14:
* Threatening Lacey with a railroad spike is a surefire way to have either Austin Aries or Jimmy Jacobs attempt to murder someone.
* Tipping or spilling the APA's beer is just asking for them to beat your ass.
* Do not, I repeat, do not
* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zVa49EwJj0w PRINCESS PEACH IS A TRAMP!]
* [[Green Lantern Fan]] is one of the most reviled figures in wrestling, even
* Mocking [[Jim Ross]] will inevitably incur the wrath of EVERYONE. God help you if [[Jim Cornette]], [[Jerry Lawler]], or [[Steve Austin]] find out about it themselves.
** Matt Striker is slowly becoming this for Lawler, as well.
Line 25 ⟶ 22:
* Attacking [[Shawn Michaels|HBK]]'s family or faith in any way-- physically, mentally, financially-- is a great way to communicate to him you really don't need your bones anymore. [[Vince McMahon]], [[Chris Jericho]], and [[John Bradshaw Layfield|JBL]] all discovered this the hard way.
* In a July 11, 2011 promo, [[John Cena]] claimed that he was an underdog to [[CM Punk]]... but then Punk retaliated that ''he'' was the underdog, while Cena was the face of the company. And then rubbed salt into the wound when he compared him to his "hometown" (West Newbury, MA, but the show was in Boston so that's what got named) - going over its underdog history as insinuators of the American Revolution and the Boston Red Sox - but saying that now they were a dynasty, [[You Are What You Hate|they'd become the New York Yankees]]. Cena promptly punched him in the face.
** Cena's best bud, [[Zack Ryder]] is definitely off
* Learn from [[Christian]]'s example and do ''NOT'' slap [[Sheamus]] or spit in the face of [[Randy Orton]]<ref>That time he was being [[Dangerously Genre Savvy]] concerning Randy</ref>.
* Oh, good God. Don't even think about making personal attacks towards either the mother, father
{{quote|'''[[CM Punk]]''': ''(While holding Christian in a submission with enough force to get officials involved)'' [[Madness Mantra|THIS IS YOU, CHRIS! THIS IS GONNA BE]] '''''[[Madness Mantra|YOU, CHRIS!!!]]'''''}}
* Do '''NOT''' make fun of John Laurinaitis' voice.
Line 36 ⟶ 33:
* Learn from Layla and DON'T THROW FOOD AT [[Natalya Neidheart]]! It won't end well.
** Same goes with Ryback, as [[Kane]] quickly discovered following Survivor Series (2014).
* If you're going to offer any diva a business deal, make sure that one or two things are clear: One don't try to hit on her, and two check to see if she's married. [[The Miz]] failed to realize this when he made a move on Naomi, and {{spoiler| Jimmy Uso}} made Miz pay for it.
* For the love of [[Mick Foley| Foley]], DO NOT make a disrespectful remark about a wrestler's deceased [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dAt1kk-632s#action=share family member]. Just go ask Paige when [[Too Dumb to Live| she made that mistake]].
* If a food fight is in process, make sure you refrain from throwing your ammo toward [[The Big Show]] and [[Kane]] if you can. If you're going to, make sure there are few people looking, or run the second they're hit by food from YOU. We're looking at you, Heath Slater.
* If you're a woman and slaps a man, with a strict [[Wouldn't Hit a Girl| hands off of women rule]], you might wanna make sure he isn't dating a woman who will attack... bonus points if it happens to be a [https://youtu.be/X11J2oRJn3E Bella]. Just ask Maryse when she opts to slap [[John Cena]], of all people.

* Sadly, in real life, domestic violence is a problem. Luckily, many wrestlers WON'T put up with it. Big Cass found out the [https://dailyddt.com/2018/06/22/report-last-straw-big-cass-grabbing-carmellas-arm/ the hard way] when he was to confront his real-life ex-girlfriend, Carmella. When Cass got violent towards Carmella, many of the other wrestlers, such as the Usoes and Erick Rowan, weren't going to let that happened. While it wasn't sure if it can be proven, it's clear that the [[World Wrestling Entertainment|WWE]] has their limits on violence, and Cass was fired on those grounds.
* If you plan on [[Would Hit a Girl| hitting a girl]] in front of a guy, better hope the guy with a [[Wouldn't Hit A Girl| strict rule against]] isn't a [[Wife-Basher Basher]]. Baron Corbin learned this one the hard way when he attacked [[Fighting Irish|Becky Lynch]] in front of Seth Rollins. Since Lynch can easily fight on her own, Corbin knocked her out with the End of Days. Rollins responded with a series of kendo strikes, chair shots, and a curb stomp on Corbin.
* Kofi Kingston is often an easy-going guy until you decide to threaten his family. [[Randy Orton]] did just that and paid for it.
