* ''WesternAnimation/JackieChanAdventures'': In the season 1 finale "Day Of The Dragon", when the newly-revived Shendu refuses to give the Dark Hand the treasure of Qin Shi Huang because [[ExactWords technically]], [[LiteralSplitPersonality Jackie's dark side]] [[ExactWords got him the talismans]], [[BullyingADragon Valmont orders Tohru to fight the big demon dragon]]. It goes as well as you'd expect, with Shendu using his telekinesis and super-strength to effortlessly throw Tohru out of the skyscraper. Though fortunately, Tohru survives the fall with just some broken bones.

* The battle between OSI and the original SPHINX organization of ''WesternAnimation/TheVentureBrothers'' lore: SPHINX is simultaneously annihilated and humiliated by an army of ''Music/VillagePeople'' impersonators, who appear to have suffered no casualties. In fact, the concept of the CurbStompBattle is parodied by how some of OSI's attacks clearly reference well-known war atrocities. It also dovetails with the fact that the OSI is a rather obvious {{Expy}} of WesternAnimation/GIJoe - the idea seems to be "if GI Joe actually killed COBRA [[NeverSayDie instead of letting them get away after every weekly defeat]]," best punctuated by a sequence where they do the old "bad guy [[EjectionSeat ejects just before his plane goes down]]" routine before he's instead shot. By the time of the series, there's only a handful of SPHINX operatives remaining, and they're all in hiding.

** During their initial fight, [[MotherNature Gaia]] easily withstands all of [[BigBad Zarm's]] attacks and counters them with massive doses of his KryptoniteFactor (pure elements of nature). She's actually about to win, when he decides to cheat by targetting the Planeteers rather than her, thus turning the tables.
** The final battle starts with Gaia holding Zarm off with little effort, until the Planeteers manage to call Captain Planet. Once summoned, he finishes the job in minutes.
* ''WesternAnimation/CelebrityDeathmatch'': One episode pitted Bigfoot against the Loch Ness Monster. Everyone present was expecting the longest, most epic bout in Celebrity Deathmatch history. Nessie won in ''six seconds''.

* ''WesternAnimation/RickAndMorty'': "Interdimensional Cable 2: Tempting Fate" features a brief clip of a game show called "Man vs. Car", in which a burly guy fights to the death against an ordinary car. [[CaptainObvious Naturally, the car wins]], and one of the announcers even makes an offhand comment under his breath about how ridiculous the concept is.
--> '''Announcer:''' I mean, wouldn't the cars win every time?

** The first six minutes of "[[Recap/AvatarTheLastAirbenderTheEarthKing The Earth King]]." It's basically nothing but Aang, Appa, Sokka, Katara, and Toph vs. pretty much ''the entire Earth Kingdom army'' around the Earth King's palace, and not only these four humans + one flying bison pounding the Earth Kingdom's soldiers into the ground, they're doing it while barely slowing down and [[ApologeticAttacker apologizing the whole way]], or least [[TeamMom Katara]] and [[BadassNormal Sokka]]. By this point, it's clear that Aang and Toph have had enough.

** One of these is how the Equally Matched Aggression system came into being. A criminal calling himself Turnbuckle tried to abduct a young Rusty Venture. Action Man came out, gave him a warning, and then pistol-whipped him into the ground before putting a bullet in his skull.

Action Man came out, gave him a warning, and then pistol-whipped him into the ground before putting a bullet in his skull. Thus a system used to rank supervillains to avoid putting them in one-sided fights was created.

** Eddy's duel with Rolf in "[[Recap/EdEddNEddyS3E7DuelingEds Dueling Eds]]" is essentially Rolf walloping Eddy with a fish while Eddy feebly tries to apologize and back out. Even when Rolf expresses frustration that Eddy won't fight back and tells him to HitMeDammit, Eddy can't even complete the swing of his fish before Rolf effortlessly whacks him off the log. In all, the duel lasts just 45 seconds.

** In "[[Recap/EdEddNEddyS5E16TightEndEd Tight End Ed]]", it's clear from the moment the Lemon Brook Lumpers take the field that the Peach Creek Cobblers, consisting of all the boys from the Cul-de-sac save [[InTouchWithHisFeminineSide Jimmy]], don't have a chance in Hell. Not only do the Cobblers lose 62-0, they end up heavily beaten and battered, with only Ed making it out in one piece by being made the team mascot. Eddy, [[UnsympatheticComedyProtagonist as usual]], gets the worst of it; not only do his attempts to steal Ed's glory with a mascot costume of his own fall flat, the Lumpers stuff his face with lemons and take him back with them to Lemon Brook.
