** At Wrestlemania X-7, it took Wrestling/StoneColdSteveAustin a series of sixteen chair shots to the body -after a [[FinishingMove Stunner]] and another huge steel swing to the head- to finally put The Rock down for the 3 count. And moments later he [[KickTheDog nailed the former World Champion with the very title he just took from him]].
** [[Wrestling/BryanDanielson Daniel Bryan]], once he attacked Wrestling/{{Kane}} with ''26'' chair shots. Wrestling/{{Sheamus}} hits Wrestling/BigShow after the latter got DQ'd with '''31''' chair shots.

* During his Iron Man match with John Cena at ''Bragging Rights 2009'', Wrestling/RandyOrton tried to '''''blow him up''''' with pyrotechnics. In fact, this is pretty much Randy's ''modus operandi'' -- other instances include that time he attacked Wrestling/{{Batista}} after he won the WWE Title from him at ''Extreme Rules'', and that time he RKO'd Wrestling/{{Christian}} ''twice'' on the announcer's table after Christian took advantage of the stipulations of their match and used it to win the World Heavyweight Championship. Note that during the latter, Randy was a ''{{Face}}''.

* Wrestling/BrockLesnar vs Wrestling/JohnCena, Wrestling/SummerSlam 2014. Cena is on the receiving end of a CurbStompBattle by Lesnar, who hits Cena with sixteen German suplexes throughout the match. Lesnar even took Cena's [[FinishingMove Attitude Adjustment]], and [[NoSell laughed it off]]. As the announcers said when Lesnar won, "it wasn't even close." What makes this so notable is that Cena has a reputation as an InvincibleHero, so to see him lose so completely is very rare.

* Wrestling/BretHart got so agitated over Wrestling/JerryLawler's {{Heel}} shenanigans at ''Summerslam 1993,'' that he wound up getting disqualified for leaving the Sharpshooter locked onto Jerry for almost three full minutes. That's longer than some TV matches last.

** This one is actually justified since Hart didn't give up, nor did he break the hold. What was Backlund gonna do, let him go?

* In his first couple years in the [[Wrestling/{{WWE}} WWF]], [[Wrestling/JohnTenta Earthquake]] would follow up his wins by hitting another [[FinishingMove Vertical]] [[AssKicksYou Splash]] on his opponent.

** [[Wrestling/BryanDanielson Daniel Bryan]], once he attacked Wrestling/{{Kane}} with ''26'' chair shots. Wrestling/{{Sheamus}} hits Wrestling/TheBigShow after the latter got DQ'd with '''31''' chair shots.

* One of Hiroyo Matsumoto's {{tag team}} maneuvers is [[AssKicksYou a butt splash on a downed opponent]] after [[CombinationAttack her partner has leaped into her arms or on her back.]] At Oz Academy's ''Stand by my Woman'', she performed this on company founder Mayumi Ozaki with Ran Yuyu and ''Wrestling/AjaKong'' latched onto her, making Ozaki suffer over three times her weight falling on her. Incidents such as this lead to the ''Hiroyo Matsumoto Destroy'' meme.

* During the pre-1990s era, a common practice to help push Monster Heels – especially large super-sized musclemen – as unstoppable, feared, bloodthirsty forces (at least on syndicated television) was to have said heel continue beating their opponent, applying a submission hold, or delivering the finishing moves multiple times to a hapless jobber long after the victory was recorded. Naturally, the heel would then grunt out that he wanted to do the same to the top babyface of the organization, thus setting up the anticipated feud.

* In ''WWE'', wrestlers who have been feuding long enough will pull off something that garners this trope. One example involves Wrestling/TheNexus beating the hell out of people, though their favorite punching bag Wrestling/JohnCena pulled this off himself at ''TLC 2010'' where after beating [[BigBad Nexus leader]] Wrestling/WadeBarrett, he pulled a table on top of him and then dropped a series of supposedly decorative steel chairs suspended by a cable on top of him.

** Wrestling/{{Sheamus}} hits Wrestling/TheBigShow after the latter got DQ'd with '''31''' chair shots.
** [[Wrestling/DwayneJohnson The Rock]] once hit Wrestling/MickFoley with '''SIXTEEN''' chair shots... Yes that's nearly half of Sheamus' total, but Mick's hands were cuffed behind his back, and each shot was ''directly to the face and head''.
* In Wrestling/{{CHIKARA}}, "Lightning" Mike Quackenbush got himself disqualified by hitting his nemesis 17 times with varieties I-IV of the Quackendriver.

* Similar to King Kong Bundy, Wrestling/BigELangston used to insist the referee count to five instead of three.

* Wrestling/BrockLesnar vs John Cena. Summerslam 2014. Nuff said.

* Wrestling/KingKongBundy: During his mid- to late-1980s run as a monster heel, he often insisted that referees count to five when counting the pinball after delivering one – or, as sometimes was the case, multiple – avalanches to hapless jobbers, to push himself as an unstoppable force.

** In the mid- to late-1980s WWF, this was often done with said villain's ultimate goal being to torture, cripple and ultimately defeat HulkHogan for the World Title … and more than once, the villain was stupid enough to deliver his finishing move several times (out of arrogance, sadism or just plain stupidity), more than enough to beat Hogan … only for Hogan to shake it all off and ultimately come back to defeat the bad guy.
