History Awesome / StreetFighterIV

* Midway between this trope and SugarWiki/FunnyMoments: Zangief's ''Super'' intro has [[HusskyRusskie him]] wrestling [[BearsAreBadNews with bears]] [[SnowMeansDeath in the snow]] like other times... [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c6-7mHDZEwE and it finishes with him AND the bears flexing their muscles.]]

* Overlapping with MoralEventHorizon, we have Bison's actions in [[spoiler: Decapre]]'s ending. [[spoiler: Did he just manage to ''force Cammy to return to Shadaloo'', using [[IllGirl Decapre]] as the bait]]?! [[ManipulativeBastard Yes, he did. THE BASTARD.]]

** We have [[spoiler: Sakura bringing Ryu back from the Satsui no Hado via a CooldownHug at ''great'' risk to herself]] and [[spoiler: Ken briefly reaching the State of Nothingness as he fights to rescue Eliza.]]
** [[spoiler: Also from the same movie, we have Ryu enter the State of Nothingness against Seth. Prior to this, Seth had been pounding Ryu into the ground and shrugging off everything he threw at him. Ryu enters the State of Nothingness, [[GoodHurtsEvil he burns Seth's arm just by grabbing it]] before knocking him away and defeating him with the Metsu Hadoken.]]

* Rolento was treated as sort of a bizarre, but funny character in ''Street Fighter x Tekken''. But in ''Ultra'', we get to see him in element: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JwalvJLtox8 A competently commanding a massive military force. He even takes out Seth with a plethora of grenades]] and a PreMortemOneLiner and all of S.I.N's secrets and technology are his for the taking! Not so funny now, is he?

** She survives, and enjoys, El Fuerte's food.
* "I do not take orders from you. Now YOU listen!". [[DidYouJustFlipOffCthulhu Did Hugo just tell off Bison?]]

* Sagat's intro movie has him decide to get a rematch against Adon. Adon is confident he'll win, not knowing he only manged to beat him because [[WorfHadTheFlu Sagat's rage kept him from focusing on the fight]]. Sagat defeats him immediately with the Tiger Destruction.
