Line 18:
** Vince comes off as almost heroic in these cases when you remember that this punishment he takes is completely by his own choice. Look it up, he never, ever comes out ahead in a feud. Even in the rare cases where he's the face, [[The Bad Guy Wins]]. Vince pretty much says that he's a natural villain and shouldn't come out on top.
** His daughter, the Billion Dollar Princess [[Stephanie McMahon]], was also a Butt Monkey herself during much of the attitude era, especially at the hands of [[Chris Jericho]] and [[Dwayne Johnson|The Rock]] who never missed an opportunity to give her a verbal beatdown. One year, they even made a compilation of her [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GnohiXG0T68 most embarrassing moments.]
* Ken Anderson. In just one week, he was assaulted by: [[Wrestler/Sting (wrestling)|Sting]], Sting again, [[Matt Hardy]], Abyss, Sting again again, Sting a fourth time, [[Hulk Hogan]], Sting yet again, and [[Rob Van Dam]]. Seems like people just can't resist beating up the asshole.
* Oh, boy Jillian Hall. Hell she could even be the new trope namer. Around 2007 they gave her a [[Hollywood Tone Deaf]] gimmick as a [[Take That]] to Brooke Hogan who was trying to have a music career. When she got moved to Raw she became a joke and jobber and existed for four years being mad fun of for her bad singing. In both 2009 and 2010 she had only one pinfall victory that she got herself. She actually managed to capture the Divas' title from Mickie James...only to lose it to Melina about two minutes later. Then there's that one-sided feud with the [[Jerk Sue|Bella Twins]].
* [[Zack Ryder]] seems to have been reduced to this as well in recent times, as he has been getting repeatedly pummeled by [[Kane (wrestling)|Kane]], humiliated and used by a scheming [[Eve Torres]], and jobbing to wrestlers who are less popular than him (usually after a crowd-pleasing Broski Boot and a failed attempt to pull off a Rough Ryder).
