-* [[Creators Pet]]: Invoked. His initial push to the Intercontinental Title involved WWE getting him over as a heel by giving him [[Creators Pet]]-ish traits (courtesy of [[Vince McMahon]] himself, being talked up by the commentators as a breakout star, and generally playing a [[Boring Invincible Villain]]).

 ** Averted as of his transfer to Raw, as he was quickly [[Demoted to Extra]].
 * [[Crowning Music of Awesome]]: "[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ui_VvlUVx_8 Broken Dreams]," a dark and brooding song in contrast to his peers' more energetic songs.

 * [[Badass Decay]]: So, so much after dropping his Dr. Of Thuganomics gimmick. He's been saddled with a massive inferiority complex, even though part of his charm as the DOT was that he rarely doubted himself, if at all. There was also the softening of his edginess when the 'E began to mold him into a "friendlier" hero, for lack of a better term. "[[Epic Fail|JBL is poopy]],"
-* [[Creators Pet]]: At least to WWE's target demographic.

 * [[Evil Is Cool]]: The Dr. of Thuganomics, a reason why most fans still hope he'd go back to basics <s>[[Incredibly Lame Pun|thuganomics]]</s>.
 * [[Ho Yay]]: With [[Shawn Michaels]], most notably.
 * [[The Scrappy]]: 2005-present.
-* [[They Changed It Now It Sucks|They Changed Him Now He Sucks]]: Currently WWE's quintessential example.

 ==== [[Low Ki|Kaval]] (Brandon Silvestry) 2010 ====
-* [[Badass Decay]]: In the indies as Lo-Ki he was a '''GIANT''' badass. A [[The Stoic|Stoic's Stoic]] who rarely talked and just wrestled, plus he had the hardest kicks in wrestling. But when WWE brought him in as Kaval, he became a "rookie" with Laycool of all people, as his mentors despite having ten years of experience,only won NXT because of his popularity [[Arson Murder and Jaywalking|and wore a pink shirt]]. And his treatment at Smackdown [[It Got Worse|got even worse!]] where he only won ''a single match'' against Dolph Ziggler. His last match with WWE was with Drew Mcintyre and lasted only 26 seconds.

 * [[Narm Charm]]: His entrance consists of him stalking out to the ring in a manner similar to [[Goldberg]], except he's around half Bill's size.

 ==== Ken Kennedy (Ken Anderson) 2005-2009 ====

 * [[The Scrappy]]: His current character plays with this - He was popular with the younger fans, but various points in his face run (Such as his tag team with [[John Morrison]]) highlighted a lack of charisma or had him acting like a brat ([[John Cena]] is unwillingly in [[The Nexus]], R-Truth says he should just quit the WWE but Cena refuses, Truth runs away & tells Randy Orton that he thinks Cena's going to screw him over because he refused to quit); since his heel turn, he's been convinced that he's deserving of a WWE title shot despite (In-universe) not actually doing anything to deserve one & even the other heels (Who usually join in when a face is being mocked) think he's annoying. Given the number of times the WWE has tried pushing him & then dropped him back to the low-mid card after he didn't get over as well as they wanted, he may also qualify as a legitimate Scrappy.
 * [[Straw Man Has a Point]]: Subverted. R-Truth gets victories over [[Randy Orton]] and [[John Morrison]] during a Gauntlet match, before wrestling [[John Cena]] to a double disqualification, winding up with his first shot at the WWE Championship. However the next week [[John Morrison]], who's supposed to be Truth's friend, comes out and mocks him for being unfit (Due to his drinking water during a match and smoking cigarettes) & only getting his shot because the New Nexus attacked [[Randy Orton]] & [[The Miz]] caused a double disqualification to try amd get out of defending the title. [[Genre Savvy|R-Truth then points that all John's trying to do is get into his head, so that he challenges John to a match & puts his title shot on the line]], a challenge which John then accepts. However, R-Truth then tries to back out of the match (He doesn't say that he never actually challenged John to a match, he starts trying to back out of the match), before Morrison points out that Truth had ''just'' said that if he won the WWE title, he would be a fighting champion. R-Truth then tries to get the fans to agree with him, only for them to cheer in response to the idea of the match & R-Truth to agree because of that. Morrison then beats Truth quickly, taking his spot in the title match; he snaps & beats up Morrison. The next week he tells the fans that doing things "for them" has gotten him nowhere and actively cost him his chance at the gold. Keep in mind that whilst R-Truth has a point in his reasoning for his [[Face Heel Turn]], Morrison also had a valid point by pointing out that Truth had really earnt the shot due to the interference in his matches.
-* [[What an Idiot]]: On the 02-07-2011 episode of Raw, airing from Milwaukee, he tried to get his customary [[Cheap Heat|Cheap Pop]] and got the city wrong, referring to Green Bay instead. This was probably because it was the day after the Green Bay Packers won the Super Bowl that weekend. The crowd almost immediately started "Milwaukee" chants, and [[Michael Cole]] joined in and started inciting the crowd.
