Line 55:

* [[Nice Hat]]
* [[No Indoor Voice]]
Line 77:
** Bill Eadie, to a lesser extent. He portrayed minor characters like [[Fake Nationality|Bolo Mongol]] and Super Machine, but he's notable for having two completely distinct characters which were perhaps equally famous in their respective eras: Demolition Ax and, preceding that, [http://www.onlineworldofwrestling.com/pictures/b/billeadie/11.jpg The Masked Superstar].
** Randy Colley also went by Moondog Rex.
** Averted with Brian Adams. Though he competed under other names (most notably his own name at the beginning and end of his career), his [[World Wrestling Entertainment|WWE]] career is notable for his having portrayed five distinct gimmicks (Demolition member; neon-wearing Hawaiian good guy; dark-purple-wearing, face-painting bad guy; ex-convict [[The Enforcer|enforcer]] for the Nation of Domination; and bikergang leader), ''all named Crush''.
* [[The Other Darrin]]: Barry Darsow replacing Randy Colley as Smash.
* [[The Pete Best]]: Randy Colley as Smash.
Line 193:
* [[Acrofatic]]: Bubba Ray
* [[Badass Family]]: Moreso in the original ECW.
* [[Canon
* [[Holy Shit Quotient]]
* [[Improbable Weapon User]]: "D-VON, GET THE TABLES!!!"
Line 303:
** Their finishing move, "get well soon". Paul would pass the opponent and enziguri the back of his head while Brian hit a reverse STO
* [[Cool Mask]]: As part of their ring entrance attire that went along with their new costumes. They ranged from Phantom of the Opera masks, purple fencing hoods and harlequin masks. This was lampshaded one time by commentary:

JBL: Have you seen them without it? They aren't really good looking.<br />
Cole: Yeah, like right now and every week.<br />
Line 326:
* [[Heterosexual Life Partners]]: They both trained together in [[Shawn Michaels]]' Wrestling Academy, fought as a team (They only fought one on one four times), their entrance has them pointing to each other before back flipping before grabbing hands, and they like hugging each other a lot.
* [[Hilarious in Hindsight]]: Brian's rap against [[John Cena]] in 2003. 'Nuff said.
{{quote|
'''Audience''': "Sucks!" }}
* [[Holy Shit Quotient]]: And how. Suicide dives are always a specialty when these two clear the ring. Let's also not forget the ladder match
Line 350:
* [[Ass Kicks You]]: They both use running corner hip splashes in homage to their father.
* [[Badass Long Hair]]
* [[Berserk Button]]: Tread with caution on Naomi, as [[The Miz]] discovered the hard way.
* [[Cool Big Sis]]: Although she was referred to in passing as their 'cousin' at the time of their partnership, Tamina played this role to the Usos during the early parts of their WWE career.
* [[Dance Battler]]: Well, they dance before they battle.
Line 359 ⟶ 360:
* [[Tag-Team Twins]]
* [[Wild Samoan]]: Subverted. They don't dress the part, and the few aspects they do use, such as performing Polynesian wardances, are used to both intimidate their opponents and pay homage to their Samoan heritage.
* [[Would Hit a Girl]]: Downplayed and was for laughs as they [https://youtu.be/mD8oPTA5EKQ got Lana] during a food fight. To be fair, in a fight food, women were pretty much fair game.
* [[Wrestling Family]]: Members of the large Anoa'i family, specifically the sons of Rikishi, and the nephews of Umaga and Tonga Kid. If you were to count the Anoa'i family's "blood brothers", you could throw the Maivia family (and therefore one
=== [[The World's Greatest Tag Team]] - 2002-2004, 2006-2007, 2009-2010 ===
Line 416 ⟶ 418:
* [[Pint-Sized Powerhouse]]: As Seth Rollins, The Miz, Fandango, and Heath Slater all found this out the hard way.
=== The Shield (2012-
==== As a whole ====
* [[Arc Words]]: JUSTICE… what else
Line 431 ⟶ 433:
==== Dean Ambrose (Jonathan Good) ====
* [[Ax Crazy]]: You thought the Wyatt Family and [[Randy Orton| Randy Orton]] was this… they’re at sane most of the time.
* [[Dangerously Genre Savvy]] Even as face, Ambrose is often like this.
* [[Ironic Name]]: Ambrose’s birth surname is “good”, and he’s mostly a [[Heel]].▼
** [[Despair Event Horizon]]: Likely due to Rollins's betrayal, only for Bray Wyatt to egg him on.
* [[Psychopathic Manchild]]▼
* [[Determinator]]: It's kindly hard to make him quit. Just ask anyone who fought him.
* [[Enforced Method Acting]]: Rollins was the only one told in advance about his fate with the Shield, making the reaction Ambrose had real.
▲* [[Ironic Name]]: Ambrose’s birth surname is “good”, and he’s mostly a [[Heel]] though he later made a [[Heel Face Turn]].
▲* [[Psychopathic Manchild]]: Even as [[Face]]
* [[Wouldn't Hit a Girl]]: On Jan. 02, 2017, episode of [[Smack Down]], he got slapped by Maryse while dealing with her [[The Miz| husband]]. This would ended in a DQ win for Ambrose but meant he couldn't get the title that was on the line. Ambrose simply talks some sense into the referee, rather than hitting Maryse back. Instead, Ambrose opted to allowed the match to continue and just get Maryse removed from the ring. {{Spoiler| The tactic worked.}}
==== Roman Reigns (Leati Anoa'i Jr.) ====
* [[Determinator]]: There are two words that he's less likely to say... "I Quit". Just ask [[Kane]].
* [[Kiai]]: His roars… that can only [[This Is Gonna Suck| one thing]] for anyone in his way.▼
** [[Major Injury Underreaction]]: This guy had to put up with a chock-slam on to a [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LT_uvZViygc cab] by [[The Big Show]], and yet he calmly walks away.
▲* [[Kiai]]: His roars… that [[Oh Crap| can only mean]] [[This Is Gonna Suck| one thing]] for anyone in his way.
* [[Lightning Bruiser]]
** [[I Know Madden Kombat]]: He used to play American football during his high school and college years, which explain his spare technique.
** [[What Could Have Been]]: In real life, he was considered during the NFL draft pick for Minnesota Vikings and Jacksonville Jaguars. He wasn’t the [[Brock Lesnar| only one who tried for the Vikings]].
* [[Kick the Son of a Bitch]]: He was only able to hold off his anger for so far it was only a matter of time before he acted it out. That was the case for [[Triple H]], who kept on making his life hell for the rest of 2015.
* [[Real Life Writes the Plot]]: Back in 2014 for the Night of Champions, Reigns was forced to bail out of a match against Seth Rollins due to legitimate Hernia surgery.
* [[Reasonable Authority Figure]]: When it comes to the Shield, Reigns seems to be this, after all he did put Rollins and Ambrose in their place during an augment. When the duo had an augment at the Royal Rumble, Reigns made them two of the twelve guys to fall victim.
* [[Wrestling Family]]: Reigns is a member of the Anoa’i, which also includes [[Dwayne Johnson| The Rock]], Rikishi, The Usos, and Tamina Snuka. Unlike the Usos, Snuka seems to be spared, but to be fair… Snuka is a Diva, so… yeah.
** [[Wild Samoan]]: His dad, Sika, and uncle, Afa, are [[Trope Namer| Trope Namers]].
* [[Worthy Opponent]]: Just ask Kane, Brock Lensar, and even [[Mark Henry]]
==== Seth Rollins (Colby Lopez) ====
* [[Arch Enemy]]: Dean Ambrose, and most recently, [[John Cena]]
* [[Beard of Evil]]: As a heel, of course
* [[Face Heel Turn]]: A day after '''Payback''', he turned his back on Ambrose and Reigns, then joining the Authority.
* [[The Heart]]: He seems to take this role.
** [[Screw This, I'm Outta Here]]: He did this on RAW in March of 2014 during a match against the Wyatt Family, which forced Reigns to chase Rollins while Ambrose knew he was [[Oh Crap| screwed]].
* [[Getting Crap Past the Radar]]: September 29 edition of Raw, after getting his Money in the Bank briefcase back from Dean Ambrose, who stole it, there was a buzzing sound. When [[Triple H| the]] [[Stephanie McMahon| Authority]] checked their phones, they noticed the sound was coming from the briefcase. Rollins explains it’s an electric razor, since he shaves his underarms like many other wrestlers.
** [[Funny Aneurysm Moment]]: This seems a bit more awkward when nude photos of Rollins were leaked online during the week of February 9th.
* [[Oh Crap]]: He had a fair share amount of this.
** When he tried to curb stomp Roman Reigns, Reigns manages to escape and take one of the cinder-blocks that would've been used. Rollins was in Reigns' path when the cinder-block was thrown, forcing Rollins to duck out of the way. Once the cinder-block broke apart upon hitting a turnbuckle, Rollins had the look of shock on his face.
** After denying [[Brock Lesnar]] a rematch for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship, Lesnar went [[Unstoppable Rage| insane]]. When Rollins decides to [[What an Idiot!| kick Lesnar in the face]], he quickly discover his mistake when Lesnar just stood there.
* [[Wouldn't Hit a Girl]]: During his tenure at [[Ring of Honor]] as Tyler Black, he rejected the order to fight none other than Kia Stevens, aka Kharma or Awesome Kong. Stevens was the ONE WHO DEMEANED HE FIGHT.
** [[Wife-Basher Basher]]: Rollins also won't take kindly to anyone beating up a woman in front of him. Just go ask Baron Corbin.
