History WesternAnimation / ScoobyDooWrestlemaniaMystery

* SpiritualSuccessor: To ''WesternAnimation/TheNewScoobyDooMovies'' from the 1970s. Like that series, this too features Scooby and the gang teaming up with animated versions of celebrities (or celebrities playing the characters they're best known for).

** There's a blink-and-you'll-miss-it appearance of [[spoiler:[[WesternAnimation/YoungJustice Wonder Girl, Artemis, Zatanna, and Miss Martian]] (in their civvies) watching the match.]]

* ShoutOut: There are a few scenes of four girls watching [=WrestleMania=] who look suspiciously like [[WesternAnimation/YoungJustice Wonder Girl, Artemis, Zatanna, and Miss Martian]] (unless it's them). This doubles as a MythologyGag; the show this movie is emulating had Scooby cross over with DC characters before.

* SpotlightStealingSquad: John Cena and Sin Cara on the wrestler's side. Sin Cara's case is justified through--his great-great-great-great grandfather, Sin Cara Grande, fought the Ghost Bear in the past and he must continue his family's legacy.

* KnownOnlyByTheirNickname: Assumed to be the case for Ruben's uncle being addressed as "Cookie".

''Scooby-Doo! [=WrestleMania=] Mystery'' is the 21st title in the WesternAnimation/ScoobyDooDirectToVideoFilmSeries. This is co-produced with Creator/WWEStudios, and many wrestlers made cameo appearances. It was released in March 2014 as a celebration of thirty years of Wrestling/WrestleMania.[[note]]Well, 29th, actually. the first Wrestlemania was held in 1985.[[/note]]

* BearsAreBadNews: The ghostly bear being the BigBad of the film.

** Reuben stating how he has his own wrestling name and costume, "The Bonebender." [[spoiler: He shows up in the climax in said "costume" and proclaiming himself as "The Bonebender".]]

* KarmaHoudini: Bayard repeatedly tries to kill the gang, but we never see him get punished for it. Justified in that the gang clearly had no clue that Bayard caused the rockslide and Bayard would probably sue them for trespassing on his property. Ms. Richards is also never seen punished for attempting to arrest and falsely accusing Shaggy and Scooby of something they didn't do, especially when she had no right or authority to do so.

** Shaggy's comment on AJ Lee being "Kane with lipstick" is probably a subtle reference to her 2012 storyline where she actually dressed up as Kane once and was shown to be even crazier than the Big Red Monster himself.

** The various times Shaggy and Scooby have been bait for the mysteries, apparently. None of the mentioned cases were shown in any of the prior movies or television shows.

* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: Unlike most authority figures, Vince researched Mystery Inc and immediately asks for their help. And during Scooby's ClearMyName incident, he goes to the side of Mystery Inc instead of immediately hauling the poor dog to jail (although having Shaggy and Scooby wrestle Kane to clear their names is a different thing).

* TheResenter: [[spoiler: What motivated Cookie to create the Ghost Bear. His injury prevented him from pursuing his dream of becoming WWE Champion and having to train newcomer after newcomer who would probably obtain what he could never get, with one of them being his own nephew, only made this become pure hatred. The likely reason he doesn't want his nephew to become a wrestler is that he's afraid he'll become the Champion he never got a chance to be--but it also he had a case of EvenEvilHasLovedOnes and truly did not wish to see his nephew end up like him.]]

* ShoutOut: There are a few scenes of four girls watching [=WrestleMania=] who look suspiciously like [[WesternAnimation/YoungJustice Wonder Girl, Artemis, Zatanna, and Miss Martian]] (unless it's really them). This doubles as a MythologyGag; the show this movie is emulating had Scooby cross over with DC characters before.

* SpotlightStealingSquad: John Cena and Sin Cara on the wrestler's side. Sin Cara's case is justified through--his great-great-great-great grandfather, Sin Cara Grande, fought the Ghost Bear in the past and it's his duty to continue his family's legacy.

* TheVoiceless: Sin Cara, which is lampshaded by Fred. Luckily for the Scooby-Doo gang, Cena speaks "Masked Luchador" (presumably from hanging out with Rey Mysterio all those years), and Sin Cara's actions definitely speak louder than his words.

* YouHaveGotToBeKiddingMe: Miz going, "Really?" at the Ghost Bear. First when Miz has to climb up the Triple H standee in the opening and the Ghost Bear swipes its claws at the leg to make him fall. The second is when the Ghost Bear crashes into his sleeping motel where he's shown in bandages and slings.

* {{Expy}}: Cookie is seen to be one of [[Videogame/PunchOut Doc Louis]]: they're both portly African-American coaches who retired from a sport they loved and are shown training newcomers to become champions. Their similarities end there though: [[spoiler: unlike Doc, who doesn't seem to take it badly that he's not fighting anymore, Cookie resents the injury to his leg that prevented him from becoming champion and decided to enact revenge.]]

* shift: While Scooby is dreaming where he wrestles food monsters, the animation shifts to the same style as the video game.

!!Tropes seen in this film include:

* ArtShift: While Scooby is dreaming where he wrestles food monsters, the animation shifts to the same style as the video game.

** Reuben stating how he has his own wrestling name and costume, "The Bonebender." [[spoiler:He shows up in the climax in said "costume" and proclaiming himself as "The Bonebender".]]

* TheCameo: Many WWE superstars are lending their voices. These include: John Cena, Triple H, Santino Marella, Sin Cara, Kane, Brodus Clay, AJ Lee, The Miz, Michael Cole and Vince [=McMahon=].
** Big Show and Alberto del Rio fight in a tag-team match against John Cena and Sin Cara (not voiced, though). There's also appearances by Sgt. Slaughter, Jerry "The King" Lawler, and Jimmy Hart (rocking with an [=iPad=]).

* ContinuitySnarl: Somewhat. Triple H and Kane are shown in their wrestling gear despite the current Authority storyline, with a clip showing Triple H fighting alongside Sin Cara, John Cena and Brodus Clay. Although this could be justified with the movie being produced prior to the storyline.

** [[spoiler:He must've somehow figured out that the belt Scooby had was a fake.]]
* {{Crossover}}: Scooby-Doo with the WWE of course. Notably this was the whole gimmick to ''WesternAnimation/TheNewScoobyDooMovies'' in which the gang has teamed up with real celebrities most of the time. This was also used occasionally in ''WesternAnimation/WhatsNewScoobyDoo''.

* {{Expy}}: Cookie is seen to be one of [[Videogame/PunchOut Doc Louis]]: they're both portly African-American coaches who retired from a sport they loved and are shown training newcomers to become champion. Their similarities end there though: [[spoiler: unlike Doc, who doesn't seem to take it badly that he's not fighting anymore, Cookie resents the injury to his leg that prevented him from becoming champion and decided to enact revenge.]]

* HoistByHisOwnPetard: [[spoiler: Cookie put post-hypnotic triggers during the bonus dance mini-game Scooby played in the beginning of the movie. While it helped Cookie when Scooby stole the WWE Championship belt, it also gave Scooby the ability to fight off Kane in the climax and thus foil Cookie's plans.]]

* KarmaHoudini: Bayard repeatedly tries to kill the gang, but we never see him get punished for it. Justified in that the gang clearly had no clue that Bayard caused the rockslide and Bayard would probably sue them for trespassing on his property.

* LimitedWardrobe: The tendency for Mystery, Inc. to always wear the same clothes like cartoon characters typically do is lampshaded by Shaggy.

** During the tag-team match, John Cena hurls The Big Show over to the announce table and the impact is so powerful that the table is totaled and Show leaves ''three'' {{Impact Silhouette}}s. Seconds later, Show comes out of nowhere with a picnic table, without a scratch on him.
** The Ghost Bear goes through this in the final battle. It goes up against Sin Cara, Kane, ''and'' John Cena, who all get their fair share of signature blows off on it including the Five-Knuckle Shuffle. It gets dazed, but still bats around the others like it was nothing. It takes Scooby-Doo with a final belly flop that ''destroys the arena'' to finally take the win. [[spoiler: It helps that it was more of a robotic suit that could've absorbed some of the damage, but the blows to the face were pretty much unprotected, showing Cookie still had his wrestling endurance.]]

** The opening credits shows many clips from the original ''WesternAnimation/ScoobyDooWhereAreYou''.

* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: Unlike most authority figures, Vince did research on Mystery Inc and immediately asks for their help. And during Scooby's ClearMyName incident, he goes to the side of Mystery Inc instead of immediately hauling the poor dog to jail (although having Shaggy and Scooby wrestle Kane to clear their names is a different thing).

* TheResenter: [[spoiler: What motivated Cookie to create the Ghost Bear. His injury prevented him from pursuing his dream of becoming WWE Champion and having to train newcomer after newcomer who would probably obtain what he could never get, with one of them being his own nephew, only made this become pure hatred. The likely reason he doesn't want his nephew to become a wrestler is because he's afraid he'll become the Champion he never got a chance to be--but its also he had a case of EvenEvilHasLovedOnes and truly did not wish to see his nephew end up like him.]]
* RousingSpeech: Cookie tries to give an inspirational speech to Shaggy and Scooby...then Kane walks by and gives them the throat slit gesture.

* ShoutOut: There's a few scenes of four girls watching [=WrestleMania=] who look suspiciously like [[WesternAnimation/YoungJustice Wonder Girl, Artemis, Zatanna and Miss Martian]] (unless it's really them). This doubles as a MythologyGag; the show this movie is emulating had Scooby cross over with DC characters before.
** In one scene, Fred shows off his new camera--with it's "[[WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes Illudium]] Q-36 Digital Zoom Lens."

* SpotlightStealingSquad: John Cena and Sin Cara on the wrestler's side. Sin Cara's case is justified though--his great-great-great-great grandfather, Sin Cara Grande, fought the Ghost Bear in the past and it's his duty to continue his family's legacy.

* TrialByCombat: When [[spoiler:Scooby and Shaggy are accused of stealing the championship belt]], they are made to earn their freedom in the ring by defeating ''[[ThisIsGonnaSuck Kane]]''.

* TheVoiceless: Sin Cara, which is lampshaded by Fred. Luckily for the Scooby Doo gang, Cena speaks "Masked Luchador" (presumably from hanging out with Rey Mysterio all those years), and Sin Cara's actions definitely speaks louder than his words.

* Bowdlerise: Kane's Chokeslam. Instead of [[NeckLift grabbing an opponent by the throat]], he grabs them by the chest.

* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: Unlike most aucthority figures, Vince did research on Mystery Inc and immediately asks for their help. And during Scooby's ClearMyName incident, he goes to the side of Mystery Inc instead of immediately hauling the poor dog to jail (although having Shaggy and Scooby wrestle Kane to clear their names is a different thing).

-->'''Shaggy:''' ''(in regards to not bringing anything other than food for the trip)'' Like, what's the big deal? We all wear the same clothes ''every single day!''
-->'''Fred:''' Well, [[DumbassHasAPoint he makes a good point]].

* MadeOfIron: During the tag-team match, John Cena hurls The Big Show over to the announce table and the impact is so powerful that the table is totaled and Show leaves ''three'' {{Impact Silhouette}}s. Seconds later, Show comes out of nowhere with a picnic table, without a scratch on him.

* ShownTheirWork: The animators worked hard to recreate the moves and entrances of the wrestlers. Sin Cara's movements, in particular, are ''really'' fluid. They even note Kane's heterochromia.
