19[[quoteright:195:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/mark_jindrak_339.jpg]]
20* {{Expy}}: The "Reflection of Perfection" gimmick was extremely similar to the "Narcissus" gimmick Wrestling/LexLuger had in his WWF debut, even using the same triple-mirror as part of his ring entrance.
21* TheFightingNarcissist: Hooked up with Teddy Long and suddenly gained the RedBaron, the “Reflection of Perfection".
22* LightningBruiser: Has the highest vertical leap in WWE history; his personal best is over 40 inches (100 cm). The commentators would mention this almost every time he did a dropkick.
23* PutOnABus: Left the promotion in 2005. He later joins Wrestling/{{CMLL}} as Marco Corleone.
24* TheQuietOne: Never talked all that much.
25* TokenWhite: Of Teddy Long’s Thuggin and Buggin stable, which he’s one of two. The rest of the group consisted of African Americans.
26* UnderwearOfPower

35[[quoteright:238:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/maven-huffman-02_4160.jpg]]
36%%* BaldOfEvil: As a heel.
37* BrokeYourArmPunchingOutCthulhu: Drop-kicked and eliminated Wrestling/TheUndertaker in the most shocking moment of the '02 Wrestling/RoyalRumble...and proceeded to get beaten and dragged around the arena by an ''extremely'' pissed off Dead Man.
38* DemotedToExtra: Pretty much slip-slided down the card after his one shot for the World Title in 2004, getting squashed by Wrestling/{{Batista}} and Wrestling/SheltonBenjamin and ending up in a low-tier tag team shilling [[Wrestling/MikeBucci Simon Dean's]] "health products."
39* FinishingMove: First a top rope bulldog, then the back cracker, which he introduced to WWE.
40* FriendOrIdolDecision: More like a "World Title or Join Evolution" decision, which Maven was faced with after Survivor Series 2004 as the first guest RAW GM. Valid points were made for either option, but Maven ultimately chose to go for the gold...and came up just short. His frustrations, likely the late realization he may have chosen wrong in the long run, led to his FaceHeelTurn.
41* TheGenericGuy: Wrestling/{{Nidia}} was the trailer girl from West Virginia, [[Wrestling/ChristopherNowinski Chris Nowinski]] was the first WWE Harvard Graduate and the asshole with the metal mask, Wrestling/MattMorgan was the "most athletic big man in wrestling" with a nasty stutter that [[BerserkButton you did NOT make fun of]], Shaniqua was the Amazonian dominatrix manager of the Basham Brothers, Wrestling/JackieGayda was Rico's assistant and [[Wrestling/TheWorldsGreatestTagTeam Charlie Haas's]] lover (and future wife), [[Wrestling/JohnMorrison Johnny Nitro]] was an Wrestling/EricBischoff suck-up, one third of MNM, and eventually an [[CaptainErsatz ersatz]] [[Music/TheDoors Jim Morrison]]. Maven? He was that guy who won ''Wrestling/WWEToughEnough''.
42* NoHoldsBarredBeatdown: Received several from the Undertaker after he eliminated him from the Royal Rumble.
43* RealMenWearPink: When he teamed with Simon Dean.
44* SquashMatch: Lost a series of them to Shelton Benjamin, the worst being losing to him ''twice'' for the Intercontinental Title at New Year's Revolution ''without ever mounting an offense''.
45* TheWorfEffect: Frequent victim of it.
46* WrestlingDoesntPay: Became a wrestling infomercial salesman. Eventually this became true in real life.
