** During Top 10 vs Top That, Top 10 spun Opponent's Choice during the second round of what was an extremely competitive match. [[CriticalResearchFailure Top That gave them Biopics, a well-known strength of Rocha's]], which allowed Top 10 to edge them out in what was considered one of the best Teams matches of all time. To this day, people still scrutinize Top That for this move.

** Shannon Barney purposely drafted Eliot Dewberry at the inaugural draft just to ensure that the Wildberries would be split up. Many fans already consider her the front-runner for Heel of the Year, [[UpToEleven and this was before a single match had even been played that season.]]

** Who's the Boss vs the Odd Couple II saw Who's the Boss break the Teams points record with 37 points and was an all around fantastic match with the Odd Couple putting up an impressive 32 points. However, the most discussed aspect of the match revolves around a controversial challenge with [[UpToEleven the first question]]. The answer to the question was [[Creator/IdrisElba Idris Elba]], which Bateman, Sneider, and Reilly all wrote and verbalized correctly. Andreyko, who answered last after giving a fun anecdote about [[Film/HobbsAndShaw the movie in question]], wrote ''and'' verbalized "Idris Alba." He was initially judged as being correct before Bateman yelled for him not to erase his board and challenged that "Alba" was an entirely different name and shouldn't have counted. Unfortunately for him, the challenge was ruled in Andreyko's favor with the judges' reasoning being that it could be perceived as a simple misspelling and that they felt that he clearly knew who Idris Elba is. The ruling of this challenge is widely loathed, as many agree wholeheartedly with Bateman that "Alba" is an entirely different name than "Elba" and that Andreyko's mistake is particularly egregious considering that three different competitors answered before him with the actual correct answer, yet he still verbalized it incorrectly, which weakens the argument that he knew Elba's real name. People also take issue with Harloff's defense that challenges will always be ruled on a case-by-case basis regardless of past precedent, as there have been prior incidents where competitors were deemed incorrect because they misspelled a correct answer by one letter.

** In 2017, many felt that 6 Degrees, who were [[{{Franchise/Batman}} twice-]][[Film/AmericanPsycho nominated]] that year for Best Teams Entrance, lost to Wolves of Steel for their [[{{Film/It}} It]] entrance as a result of vote-splitting between their two nominated entrances, something Clarke Wolfe humbly acknowledged in her and Mark Reilly's acceptance speech.

** As vengeance against John Rocha for winning Singles Entrance of the Year for 2019 over him, Greg Alba wore a VForVendetta mask and a cowboy hat, old signatures of Rocha's, during the Reel Rejects' match against the Cuckoo's Mess while John Humphrey wore a Jigsaw mask. Enraged, Rocha demanded Alba take the mask off and confiscated it from him, only for John Humphrey to reveal he was wearing his own V for Vendetta mask under his Jigsaw mask and handed it to Alba to wear for the match, also revealing that he was wearing ''another'' Jigsaw mask under that mask.

** The Pride put up a great performance in their debut match against the Butcher Boys, but received a lot of flak for their heel personas. Goddard especially received ridicule for [[NarratingTheObvious outright proclaiming that they're heels]] during the match to defend their antics to the point that Harloff discussed making a shirt out of it and Brad Gilmore felt the need to give a lesson about the history of heels and their portrayal in Wrestling on an episode of the Schmoedown Rundown.

* SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic: Much of the original music qualifies, but a special mention goes to Korruption's theme, especially when it was played ''live'' during Kalinowski's entrance at Spectacular IV.

* MoralEventHorizon: Ken Napzok betraying Rachel Cushing to join the Lion's Den after failing to show up to their match against Blofeld's Cat, forcing her to face them two-on-one. The disheartened look on Cushing's face further solidifed this moment as Napzok's MEH, as he mocked her for trying to bring him back to the light.

** All the way back at the end of Season 3 in 2016 at the inaugural Schmoedown Spectacular, Dan Murrell accepted Finstock's offer to join the Lion's Den, only to quickly bow out of the faction after they failed to show up to support him in his title match against John Rocha. Additionally, during the moment in which Murrell accepted Finstock's offer, Rocha crashed the interview to insult Finstock and shove him out of the way before launching into a tirade towards Murrell. Cut to two years later midway through Season 7 and Finstock has officially become both Murrell ''and'' Rocha's manager after Finstock and Ben Bateman were accepted into the Five Horsemen at the Houston event.

** Between Andrew Ghai's antics and the exasperated commentary by Kristian and Mark, the entirety of Ghai vs Murrell could count as this. What makes the below quote doubly count as a CMOF and [[{{SugarWiki/AwesomeMoments}} Crowning Moment of Awesome]] is that Ghai's prediction actually comes true to the shock of the audience.

** The Family vs The Paddington Two was a solid match that originally ended with the Paddington Two prevailing, but [[HonorBeforeReason Atchity believed that the Family's 5-pointer wasn't written properly and didn't want the Paddington Two's win to result from what he perceived to be a poorly-worded question]]. As a result, the Family received a new question that they knew and got the win. It's widely agreed upon that Atchity should not have challenged the question at all and left it for the Family to challenge if they wished to. However, to this day, there is disagreement regarding whether or not the question itself was fair to ask and if the Family's replacement question was too easy, which has spurred debate over whether the Family was as good of a team as their record indicates.

* OvershadowedByControversy: Patriots vs Top 10 III, which ended up being the Patriots' final successful defense, may be the least popular match of all time with over a fifth of the votes on its [=YouTube=] upload being dislikes. Top 10 was down by only four points going into the betting round where Sneider spun Westerns, a strength of Rocha's. The Patriots got the question wrong while Top 10 knew it, but the Patriots challenged that their answer of [[Creator/JaneFonda "Jane Fonda"]] was written incomprehensibly on Rocha's board and shouldn't have counted. The ruling was that the entire round would be redone with a new wheel spin, which landed on Will Smith, and a new question, which the Patriots got right and Top 10 missed, creating a ten-point deficit that helped the Patriots knock out Top 10 in the speed round. Fans are torn on whether or not Top 10 deserved credit for their answer, whether they should've just had their points deducted for not writing the answer clearly enough, or whether the teams should've redone the round with a new Westerns question. However, the decision to have a re-spin is nearly universally loathed, as it seemed entirely unnecessary based on the actual controversy at hand.

** In-universe, Dagnino secretly planning on trading Sneider after the Patriots lost the belts was seen as this by Sneider and Napzok, which caused the Lion's Den to implode and Sneider and Napzok going off to do their own things.
