** Even before that, his [[GenreSavvy Genre Savviness]] made him rightfully suspicious of Jack's sudden offer to team up and. However, Omi and the others still [[DudeWheresMyRespect looked down on him]] because he wasn't an apprentice and [[CassandraTruth ignored his opinion]] in favor of the villain they've been fighting on a regular basis. Not surprisingly, [[TooDumbToLive the apprentices get captured]] with no way to prevent Pandabubba's minions from raiding the temple. Raimundo successfully pulled off a feint and orchestrated a breakout all by himself, and making a comeback win in the showdown was just icing on the cake.

* He also shows he's no country bumpkin in the episode with the mermaid, in which [[HoistByHisOwnPetard he turns the tables on Jack by using two Shen Gong Wu to send the sharkbots after him]].




to:

* Dojo when he reveals his SuperpoweredEvilSide, as revealed in the seventh episode of season two. He takes several levels in badass, though too bad it's accompanied by several levels in jerkass too. Best shown when facing off with Jack's latest mechanical invention -- even Wuya was freaking out.

* Ripping the Heart of Jeong Jong right out of Mala Mala Jeong's Jong's chest using the Golden Tiger Claws he retrieved from the Earth's core was a definitive Omi-being-awesome moment.




to:

* A joint CMOA for Omi and Chase Young during their EnemyMine in "Dangerous Minds". Chase tells Omi to [[DontThinkFeel block out his thoughts and just let his tiger instincts fight for him]]. Omi meditates for a moment while the [[ItMakesSenseInContext giant spiders]] close in around them, and then all of a sudden both warriors stand [[BackToBackBadasses back-to-back]] and use the same series of moves at the same time in opposite directions. They kick so much ass that their mindless enemies run away in fear.



* Much of "Sizing Up Omi" was about how unstoppable the Cyclops is; which just makes Clay opening their showdown by jump-kicking is through ''seven'' '''HUGE''' stone pillars all the more impressive. It doesn't end up as well as he might have hoped, but it was undeniably awesome.

* Unlocking his wind element to it's fullest extent in the [[MeleeATrois Showdown Trio]] with Jack and Pandabubba, pulling off a seemingly impossible come-from-behind victory that even [[SmugSuper Omi]] admitted was awesome.

* Swinging around a HumongousMecha by the end of the Tangle Web Comb as if it was nothing and sending it flying through the ceiling back at Jack Spicer in "The Crystal Glasses".
* Blowing up hordes of Jack-bots by the dozens? A normal day's work for the Xiaolin Warriors. ''Glaring'' at one until it fearfully hits its own self-destruct switch? Preposterously awesome. Doubles as a CrowningMomentOfFunny.

* Even normally ineffectual villain Jack Spicer got one, when he used what everyone agreed to be the most useless Shen Gong Wu (the Changing Chopsticks) to essentially pwn the good guys and steal all of their Shen Gong Wu in a XanatosGambit that the good guys didn't even realize until the episode was over.

* Before that, we have all four monks plus [[spoiler: Good!Chase]] trapped by every enemy. Rai promptly volunteers to drink the [[ItMakesSenseInContext bowl of 1500-year-old]] [[PsychoSerum Lao Mang Long Soup]] so that the others can escape, even reasoning his case when [[UnresolvedSexualTension Kimiko]] instantly steals it because they don't want him turning evil. He would have gone through with it, too, [[spoiler: if Good!Chase [[HeroicSacrifice hadn't taken it, instead]].]]




to:

* Raimundo sends Kimiko's PDA a virus. What does she do with it? She isolates it while calmly sitting in Jack Spicer's cage after he catches her, calmly ignoring her opponent's taunts all the way even as he leaves to steal their Wu, and then sends it to Jack's computer so that she can escape. Then she [[CrowningMomentOfFunny crashes a car into the robot impersonating her,]] [[BigDamnHeroes right after RoboKim catches all three guys.]]




to:

* How does his Pa know that he's become a man? Clay finally tells him to [[CallingTheOldManOut shut his trap and let Clay win the Showdown his way.]] After spending the bulk of the episode [[WellDoneSonGuy cowtowing to the man's every order]], this was especially gratifying.

* Although Chase and Hannibal thought she was Jack at the time, for Disguised!Kimiko to win a Xiaolin Showdown against CHASE YOUNG and HANNIBAL ROY BEAN by tricking them into fighting against each other, which is what caused them both to lose the showdown, clearly pegs this as a CMOA for Kimiko and a very strong argument for Brains Over Brawn.

* For the show as a whole: the fight between Omi and Hannibal in "Wu Got The Power," in which Omi and Hannibal are converted into beings of pure energy and bend the forces of nature around them for their fight. They clash as enormous cloud-beings while dramatic lightning strikes and the elements tear at the Earth. Even the animation becomes more detailed to match the ramped-up level of destruction.
