* Zig-zagged in ''[[https://archiveofourown.org/works/14997911/chapters/34760702 The Horsewomen Of Las Vegas]]'' after the gunfight at the Jakked Motel [[spoiler: where Wrestling/{{Naomi}} gets killed]]. The brass at the LVPD decide to spin it that she (a partolman) "went cowboy" and Wrestling/{{Bayley}} (a vice detective) went after her to try and save her, as one of the dead at the scene(presumed to have been killed by Bayley) was Steve Blackman, an international assassin on Interpol's most wanted list. This gets her a unwanted reputation of being one herself. Much to her annoyance, it gets her a lot of unwelcome respect from the Clark County Sheriff's department, including Sheriff [[Wrestling/StoneColdSteveAustin Steve Austin]].

Just as with cowboy sheriffs in the old west, cowboy cops rarely show any remorse for using lethal force. First kill scenarios are rarely depicted; these guys (and occasionally gals) have usually filled whole cemeteries to capacity before we meet them for the first time.
