* CanadaEh: From Quebec.



* CanadaEh: On the old version of CHIKARA's roster page, Matthews' wrestling style was described as "Canadian style!" Jagged was described as "Quebec's Ostentatious Obnoxio!"



* CanadaEh: A rare aversion, since he's usually billed from [[PartsUnknown "Wizard Beach, Las Vegas"]].

* BackFromTheDead: Reincarnated, as iPPV viewers witnessed in the ''Tomorrow Never Dies'' stinger "Waseca County". In October 2015, his reincarnation, the Estonian [=FarmerFrog=], made his CHIKARA debut, then re-became the Thunderfrog in February 2016.



** CommutingOnABus: Commuted in for King of Trios 2018.
* DropTheHammer: Wielded first the Hammer of Peace, then the Hammer of War after the Bloc Party destroyed the original hammer. One of his trademarks was slamming it down from the top turnbuckle, stunning everyone and knocking them from the ring. Killed the Brown Morning of Belarus and Tursas with it.

* OnlyTheChosenMayWield: The Hammer of Peace/War. It could barely be moved by anyone besides the Thunderfrog, much less actually lifted.
** After the Thunderfrog's death, this overlapped with TakeUpMySword, as the Hammer was lifted and claimed by Icarus at the end of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X-U54xPWCmw this video]]. After Icarus was found unworthy, the [=FarmerFrog=] claimed the Hammer after ''Top Banana''.
* ShoutOut: To ComicBook/TheMightyThor.
** Also a minor one to Literature/TheFrogPrince, as he sure loved his princesses. (And milk maids. And queens.)

* OurDragonsAreDifferent: No wings or horns, can't breath fire, mostly green, and a big head. He got over, though, and, Eddie Kingston put him over huge on commentary in his debut match at ''Running in the Red''.

* OurDragonsAreDifferent: The joke behind Dragon Dragon was to act as a piss-take on wrestlers with "Dragon" in their names -- Wrestling/UltimoDragon, Dragon Lee, Super Dragon, etc. -- by being an ''actual'' dragon. No wings or horns, can't breath fire, but mostly green, and with a big head. He got over, though, and, Eddie Kingston put him over huge on commentary in his debut match at ''Running in the Red''.

Black Sheep cleanup, removing misuse and ZCE


* BlackSheep: Sees herself as this of the Hatfield[=/=][=McCoy=] family, particularly in comparison to Boomer. Subverted in regards to Dasher after his FaceHeelTurn, as he sees her as the only member of their family he can trust to have his back.

* MoodWhiplash: At ''Time Will Prove Everything'', March 24, 2007, he faced Create-A-Wrestler (today, Dasher Hatfield). In his promo, Crossbones [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wknkxux43dk questioned the logic]] of such a gimmick, and called C-A-W "a nobody," "a loser" and a "dead man." Then Icarus walked over and told Crossbones, "Good job with Franchise/CaptainAmerica," and Crossbones responded with a chipper "Thanks, buddy."
