* Played amazingly well in ''[[Red vs. Blue (Machinima)|Red vs. Blue]]'' season "Revelation" (it was choreographed and animated by [[Monty Oum]] what do you expect),the reds are cowering as something is battering down a door, door is thrown out off the hooks, and a certain female character says "Okay. So who's first?" [[Crowning Moment of Awesome|What follows is]] [[No-Holds-Barred Beatdown|7 minutes of pure awesome.]]

** Pretty much every fight that [[Badass|certain female character]] is involved in is bound to be this.

* The Screamsheet's Fights section has a few of these. Most notable is [http://screamsheet.wordpress.com/fights/the-biggest-damned-fight-ever/ "The Biggest Damned Fight Ever,"] which features [[Bruce Campbell]] stomping almost everyone who had appeared in that section prior.

** This would have more long-term consequences, since at least in Western countries it led to pity and even sympathy for demons that affected human relations with them post-war (and, it seems, influenced human harshness against the angels in return).

** Just to give you an idea of how badly the demons were destroyed, in the first battle the demons were fielding around 440,000 troops, and were facing several thousands of humans. Humans suffered only 600 casualties. Only 300 demons lived.

* The ''[[That Guy With the Glasses (Website)|That Guy With the Glasses]]'' 1st anniversary video included a few of these. Most notably {{spoiler|[[The Nostalgia Critic (Web Video)|The Nostalgia Critic]], despite effortlessly dispatching anybody else he runs into and having fought a pretty close battle with [[The Angry Video Game Nerd (Web Video)|The Angry Video Game Nerd]] previously, seems to get beat up pretty badly whenever he runs into the Nerd in the battle. This includes taking multiple attacks to the crotch. Even so, the battle technically ends in a tie and the Critic does gain the upper hand on a few occasions.}} Also, nearly every character is introduced by literally appearing out of nowhere and knocking the previous character to the ground. Nearly all of Angry Joe's scenes consist of him screaming and doing crazy karate gestures before being knocked out by another character seconds later. And {{spoiler|[[What Kind of Lame Power Is Heart, Anyway?|Ma-Ti]]}}takes a particularly large amount of punishment from just about everybody.

* Just after [[Atop the Fourth Wall (Web Video)|Linkara]] manages to defeat Mechakara, he winds up on the receiving end of one at the hands of Lord Vyce.

* "The Turks or the Geek" in the [[Whateley Universe (Literature)|Whateley Universe]]. Team Kimba finally figures out who bushwhacked and stomped their least battle-worthy members a month or so earlier. They challenge said team (the Young Turks) to an arena match in front of them whole school, with only the four team members considered the least threatening. Team Kimba uses their abilities to learn how the Young Turks plan to game the fight: extreme curb stomping ensues.

* In one episode of ''[[Homestar Runner (Web Animation)|Strong Bad E-Mails]]'', Strong Bad decides to find out what would happen if he were to poke Pom-Pom with a pin while he's on fire. To make things more interesting, Strong Bad blindfolds himself. He didn't see what happened, but he's sure that Pom-Pom [[Stuff Blowing Up|exploded in a big fiery ball that was visible from space]], and that [[Suspiciously Specific Denial|in no way did Strong Bad get the ever-loving crap beaten out of him]].

* [[Big Bad|Mecha Sonic]] in ''[[Super Mario Bros Z]]'' practically specializes in this, having technically only been defeated ''once'' (thanks to a [[Deus Ex Machina|conveniently-produced Super Star]]), but the two instances that specifically qualify as this trope would be the [[No-Holds-Barred Beatdown|No Holds Barred Beatdowns]] of Yoshi, then later the Axem Rangers and the Koopa Bros. (Yoshi at least got better. The others [[Killed Off for Real|didn't.]])

* This has happened (for both sides) in ''[[Comic Fury Werewolf]]'', but is most prominent in Game 8 for the town (3 wolf lynches in 3 days), and Game 10 for the Werewolves.

* In [[Touhou a Glimmer of An Outside World (Roleplay)|Touhou a Glimmer of An Outside World]], Yukari and Yuyuko both attacked a panicked, seemingly sleep-deprived Reimu to get her to calm down. Reimu, rather unsurprisingly, lost.

* The most recent [[Screw Attack]] [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8er83h9Bbn8&feature=digest_refresh_fri Death Battle] between Rainbow Dash of ''[[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic (Animation)|My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic]]'' and Starscream from ''[[Transformers Generation One]]'' has {{spoiler|Rainbow Dash pulling one of these on Starscream,}} to the point that the battle was the most one sided battle they've ever done by far<ref>Starscream only manages to even connect with an attack ''once'', via a cheap shot with the Null Ray. Given that she's not mechanical, this does little more than annoy her. He also manages an annoyed swat which accomplishes even less, but it's questionable whether that one even qualifies as an attack.</ref>. The fact that this trope was used at all is unique for the series as usually the battles are shown to be as close as possible, even if the winner needs to receive a nerf or the loser a buff to even things out a little.

** Another case was in the [[Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles]] one, where the Leonardo attacks Michelangelo and kills him in seconds. It was noted in the aftermath that Leonardo went after Michelangelo because he was the easiest target.
