  • A little while after his face turn the camera zoomed in on a little girl mimicking MVP's "ballin" hand gesture a few times before she noticed and started waving at it.
  • His graceful acceptance of Kofi Kingston beating him for the United States Championship in 2009, which is a rare sight in professional wrestling in general, WWE and particular and unexpected from a Rod Tidwell/TO expy. Despite this, during his heel run in TNA, he would take shot at The New Day gimmick in its infancy, telling Lashley in January 2015 to stick with him and the Beat Down Clan if he didn't want to go shucking and jiving and singing gospel music. And despite that, fast forward to 2019, a clip surfaced of the internet of MVP and former Cryme Tyme member Shad Gaspard, both long since separated from any high-profile wrestling promotion, at a WrestleMania 35 watch party witnessing Kofi capture the WWE title. MVP and Shad's reaction is... well, just watch it. And try to avoid the guy cutting the onions.
  • His defeat of Toru Yano in Philadelphia, showing that he had not just made it into "Puroresu" but had finally made it big, being the first ever IWGP Intercontinental Champion. Only half of the crowd seemed to be awake but the speech MVP gave after winning made up for it.
  • Why did MVP appear in the 2020 Royal Rumble? He wanted his son to see him compete.
  • His small tribute to friend Shad Gaspard, who lost his life saving his son, with wearing a customize shirt of the man one night.
