Redefining the tropes mean they have to be renamed as well.
No, it doesn't. Where'd you hear that?

Do the new definitions make sense with the current names?

Did someone already rewrite the descriptions?

Wow, I can't believe there's a Bested at Bowling trope, as having characters compete is reasonably common, but unless every type of competition gets its own trope, it all should be put into one. A couple of the Bested at Bowling examples aren't even of bowling. Most could be marged into Beaten By A Girl (which could keep its name or be renamed Underdog Victory, either way); and there are "big game" type tropes that could pick up most of the others.

Underdog Victory seems to be a redirect for an existing trope. That redirect doesn't really make sense.

Well, this thread was absolutely pointless. Locking up.
