Line 19:
* [[Disappeared Dad]]: Lincoln has been on the road for most of his son's life, driving a truck and arm wrestling. Subverted in that he regularly wrote to his son and wife, double subverted in that Michael never got any of his dad's letters. No solid reason is ever given for Lincoln's estrangement; when asked, he merely says "[[Hand Wave|I made some mistakes]]."
* [[Even Evil Has Standards]]: Jason Cutler offers to give Hawk half a million and a new semi if he will just leave town and leave him and Michael alone. Hawk refuses. Jason explains that Michael is the only family he has left and this way Hawk can be back to his normal life.
* [[Ham -to -Ham Combat]]: Come on, the final showdown between Bull and Lincoln for the world championship, extreme closeups of each man grunting and sweating and screaming in slow motion! That was a total ham-off!
* [[I Gave My Word]]: Lincoln agrees to his sick wife's wishes to meet his estranged son, even though the son hasn't seen or heard from Lincoln in a long time or the fact that the Grandfather hates Lincoln, Lincoln is going to see this through.
* [[Large Ham]]: Bull Hurley, several of the opposing arm wrestlers in fact like Grizzly, but Bull is the biggest (no pun intended) example.
