Line 37:
** And then there's Money in the Bank, a [[Gimmick Matches|Gimmick Match]] whose winner can claim a title shot any time within the next year. It usually gets cashed in right after the current champ has gotten thoroughly beat up by someone else.
* An episode of ''[[Seinfeld]]'' has Jerry and George ask Elaine which of the two would win in a fight. Elaine says George, on the basis that he would fight dirty. George happily admits it, and Jerry happily accepts it. This is confirmed in a later episode where the three of them fight, and George does win.
* Starbuck in [[Battlestar Galactica (2004 TV series)|the re-imagined ''[[Battlestar Galactica Reimagined]]'']], particularly during the episode Scar, wherein Viper pilots are confronted with a deadly, newly-motivated enemy sortie, who utilises all sorts of tricks and decoys.
{{quote|'''Starbuck:''' 'This isn't dueling pistols at dawn, this is war. You never wanna fight fair. You wanna sneak up behind your enemy, and club 'em over the head. You see, Scar understands that. And so do I. So, that's why I'm gonna kill him.'}}
** Of course, the most pragmatic thing Starbuck ends up doing in that fight is {{spoiler|swallowing her pride and luring Scar into an ambush so that someone else can take the kill and get the glory}}.
