No Holds Barred Beatdown / Web Original

Go To


  • The Angry Video Game Nerd hands one of these to Bugs Bunny of all people. Two years later though, Bugs gets his own back, and then some.
  • General rule of thumb: Don't pick a fight with Doki or else
  • Cobra Kai: "Big boy" Brucks finds out the painful way what happens when the Villain Forgot to Level Grind (which his pal Kyler did not) while his former victim Took a Level in Badass. During tryouts for the crew Kreese is assembling in the third season, he brags and boasts about getting a no-sweat victory. Hawk announces that he's up for the challenge and makes a clear example out of him. Kreese is the only one in the entire room that isn't shocked in the least at the outcome.
  • CollegeHumor: The "Grease Dilemma" sketch ends with Danny, Sonny and Doody all violently beating Kenickie to a pulp after realizing that Kenickie roofied and raped Rizzo.
  • Dream SMP: The Imprisonment arc ends with Dream beating Tommy to death with his bare hands. Over a book.
  • The Debbie and Carrie Show: Carrie Sims actually gave Ted Wilson one of these both to avenge her past beating by him (he used a baseball bat, but Carrie only used her bare hands) and to protect both James Smith and his girlfriend Penny Bentley from being bullied by Ted again.
  • Dreamscape: In "A Curse or a Blessing", Kaila pummels Mechelly with her many arms, but since Mechelly is a robot, this does nothing.
  • Half-Life but the AI is Self-Aware: Benrey and Bubby, who've been obviously plotting something behind Gordon's back for all of the first third of Act Three, lure Gordon into a room with a medical station, lock him inside and start beating the shit out of him. The lights are turned off, so the entire scene is sound-only. Dr. Coomer does nothing because Gordon's out of PlayCoins™, so Tommy's the only one who's genuinely concerned about Gordon. Then somebody cuts off Gordon's right hand in the midst of the whole thing, which Bubby immediately says they weren't told to do. Gordon's dumped into a garbage disposal (which had been already activated when he had been thrown in, so he wasn't crushed, and it's implied that Benrey and Bubby were working with the military to betray Gordon.
  • Mercs: In "Hijack", Varisa comes upon hacker Tess. Cracking her knuckles, Varisa steps in for the beatdown. She proceeds to be smacked around by Tess in a lengthy montage.
  • My Little Pony Meets has a few examples:
    • In The Joker meets, the clown makes the mistake of making Applebloom cry in front of Bat Man, who is so enraged that he eats The Joker's gun and chases him across Ponyville, before cornering him in a shed and turning the lights out, so he can give him a beating so brutal, it cannot be seen.
    Joker: I don't think that's supposed to bend that way- AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!
    • Played for Laughs in Super Man meets, where Celestia has to call on Supes to help her save The Crystal Empire because Luna is busy beating Freddy Krueger to a bloody pulp in the dream world.
    • Played (relatively) for drama in Rapunzel meets, where Rarity and Spike are helping fend protect Rapunzel from the trio of Diamond Dogs, who retaliate by beating Spike so badly he almost dies. Rarity quickly returned the favor.
    • Used again in Toucan LDM meets where the creator himself wins a free trip to Ponyville only to meet Lyra and Bonbon, who he has repeatedly had beaten up in his videos, for no particular reason. You can probably see where that leads.
  • The Nostalgia Critic went all out on The Neverending Story III Escape From Fantasia disc after being tortured by the movie for twenty minutes. Played more seriously years later in a Vampire Reviews episode, where he beat a child to death and everyone is horrified.
  • OverSimplified: Near the end of the Pig War video, Winfield Scott is seen beating the living daylights out of William S. Harney with a belt for continuing to blatantly disregard Scott's orders.
  • A Creepypasta known as The Lamp has it's main character fall into the coma where most of the story takes place by being on the receiving end of one of these.
  • Red vs. Blue Revelation: Episode ten in its entirety (nearly 8 minutes). Also counts as a Curb-Stomp Battle as the Reds and Tucker are trying to fight Tex. Unusually for the trope though, this particular beatdown is hilarious. Particular mention goes out to Grif, who undergoes no less than seven Groin Attacks in one fight scene. Honestly, you could argue the entire fight was pretty much a No-Holds-Barred Beatdown directly aimed at Grif's balls.
    • Donut received one in season eleven by the entire cast, after they've been stranded on an unknown planet for an extended period of time and he screws up what may be their one shot of getting back home.
    • Tucker later received one from Doc in the "Chorus Trilogy" note , when all of Doc's laden anger of years of abuse finally comes to a boil, after Tucker not only reveals that they didn't even notice he was accidentally trapped in a void but reveals this in a completely unsympathetic and dismissive matter.
  • In the Rooster Teeth Let's Play of Minecraft, episode 8, Gavin ends up trolling Geoff one too many times, leading to Geoff beating him in real life.
  • The Saga of Tuck, Tuck is ambushed by several Jerk Jocks, who then leave him in the cheerleaders' locker room — where he gets beaten again by the cheerleaders. He was so badly injured that they called in a helicopter evac, and he nearly died a few times both in transit and on the operating table.
  • In Six Chances, one of the main characters Jericho has a habit of beating people senseless with his suitcase when enraged. Ironic in that his profession is that of a peacekeeper.
  • The Spoony Experiment. Spoony gets into a beatdown by Snow who not only leaves him bloody and bruised, but snaps his Gunblade in half. Spoony gives one back of his own by hitting him with anything he can get his hands on before ripping Snow's throat out.
  • In Super Mario Bros. Z, as a general rule, when Mecha Sonic appears, someone is about to get their ass kicked in this fashion. The most notable example is probably when Yoshi gets the tar beaten out of him in the third episode (and it's even more brutal in the reboot).
    • Psht, forget Yoshi! At least he survived! Sure, the Axem Rangers were kind of a dick troupe, but Mecha Sonic not only wiped the floor with them, but also murdered each one, each time more brutally than the one before, giving us images of him doing things like crushing Axem Green's skull in his hand and disintegrating Axem Red with a Kamehame Hadoken — after first laying into him with Akuma's signature Shun Goku Satsu attack, no less!
  • Survival of the Fittest has the fight between Rick Holeman and Laeil Burbank in V3, which devolves from a gunfight into a straight up beatdown when both their guns fail, Laeil slips and falls to the ground, and Rick then proceeds to beat her to a bloody pulp. She manages to turn the tables, though, once she grabs hold of her sword.
  • Vaguely Recalling JoJo:
    • Jotaro Kujo delivers one to Steely Dan as just punishment for the crap Steely Dan put him through.
    • Avdol delivers one to Cameo while asking Cameo to "grant" his wishes.
    • Jonathan Joestar delivers them to Dio Brando when he gets angered enough.
  • In Whateley Universe, Paige gave one to Carl when he challenged her regarding their common relationship with Sara, including a particularly nasty Groin Attack; if he hadn't been a werewolf, she probably would have killed him. Shortly afterward, Carl gets another No-Holds-Barred Beatdown from Razorback, whom he had been taunting; Jack's response was to rip out one of Carl's femurs and taunt him back with it.
