*TearJerker: Taylor's return to the WWE as his brother's associate, Uncle Howdy, is cut short when Windham contracts COVID-19 in February 2023 and passed away six months later. The following year, while inducting his father and uncle into the Hall of Fame alongside his sister Mika, Taylor, who previously played the typically cheerful Bo Dallas, breaks down in tears whenever his brother is mentioned. After his father concluded his speech, Taylor joins the fans as one of the many fireflies paying tribute to Windham.

* '''EnsembleDarkhorse''': One of the biggest in the company. Especially when you remember how not long before, ''almost nobody'' in the IWC liked him. The way he's managed to go from one end of the scale to the other in less than a year is absolutely amazing.

* BaseBreaker[=/=]XPacHeat[=/=]TheScrappy: Oh yeah. Even though he got some cheers during his match with Sami Zayn at ''[=SummerSlam=] Axxess'', the crowd was almost relentlessly against him, and there appeared to be nothing he could do to change their minds.
** RescuedFromTheScrappyHeap: Turning him into a delusional conniving heel who somehow ''thinks'' he's a face seems to have done this with a lot of people. At the very least it's convinced people to take him as being SoBadItsGood. [[Wrestling/BrayWyatt His brother's]] rapidly rising popularity at the time certainly helped improve his standing with fans.



* '''SoBadItsGood''': His gimmick of a delusional heel, who thinks he's a face. It shouldn't work...and yet it does. It worked ''so'' well, in fact, that WWE made [[Wrestling/TheNewDay a stable]] with a similiar gimmick.

* FridgeBrilliance: In a way, Bo's gimmick is like a LighterAndSofter version of his brother's gimmick: both are heels who preach to the audience, but while Bray's an AxCrazy cult leader on some kind of mission, Bo's an inspirational moron with no clear goal other than winning and getting people to Bolieve. Both have a lot of fans in their corner, but Bray's fans actually take him seriously while Bo's fans support him, but still laugh at him (as intended). Both like to push their own creeds, but while Bray delivers his sermons as a mix of metaphors and florid prose hiding messages of dark intent, Bo just gives people trite cliches. And they're both pretty solid opponents, but while Bray's an absolute monster, Bo is ''mostly'' harmless. Unless your name is El Torito.



* WTHCostumingDepartment: His plain white trunks that he's been wearing for a majority of 2015 have elicited this reaction from a lot of people. Many say it looks like a diaper. Perhaps fittingly, since joining the Social Outcasts, he's changed outfits.

* TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodPlot: Bo Dallas's exit from NXT. He was put in a match against Big E, where if he won, he'd get a NXT Championship match and if he lost he had to leave NXT. He ended up losing and threw a hissy fit over it. This would have made a much bigger impact if it wasn't for the fact that several promo packages had been played hyping up his debut on the Main Roster priot to that, and if said debut hadn't already taken place when he was banished from NXT.
