* ImmediateSelfContradiction: During his rant on Vince Russo's attempts at sympathy in his autobiography, Bryan insists that he's never criticised Russo as a person. When Vinny points out that Bryan has called him an idiot, Bryan just shouts "He ''is'' an idiot!", though he still considers this a criticism of Russo in a professional rather than personal capacity.

** Going the other way, Dave rated a Wrestling/MitsuharuMisawa vs Toshiaki Kawada match for Wrestling/{{All Japan|ProWrestling}} in June 1994 six stars, proclaiming it to possibly be the greatest match ever. About two decades later the Wrestling/KazuchikaOkada vs Wrestling/KennyOmega match at [[Wrestling/NewJapanProWrestling Wrestle Kingdom 11]] he also gave six stars, immediately declaring ''it'' to be the greatest match of all time... but then awarded their next match at ''Dominion 6.11'' ''six-and-a-quarter stars'' (Dave would give one more match that year 6 stars, and another match that year got 5 3/4 stars). Omega and Okada's ''Dominion 6.9'' match the following year sent the rating scale into the stratosphere with ''seven'', and every year since has featured several matches over 5 stars, an ''era mirabilis'' for Dave's vision of professional wrestling.

Precision "F" Strike has been renamed to Breaking Point Swearing as of this TRS Thread.


* BreakingPointSwearing: Dave usually doesn't swear most of the time, but reviewing rather atrocious or controversial angles/promos sometimes have him let out a swear, for example one time describing a nonsensical [[Wrestling/ImpactWrestling TNA]] angle with Dixie Carter and ending by shouting "What the fuck!?"



* PrecisionFStrike: Usually when Dave swears, one time describing a nonsensical [[Wrestling/ImpactWrestling TNA]] angle with Dixie Carter and ending by shouting "What the fuck!?"

* InsistentTerminology: They often use the most famous name for a FinishingMove (eg, the STO will be called the [[Wrestling/{{Edge}} Downward Spiral]]), but Bryan once stopped a review to explain that he will only refer to Wrestling/BethPhoenix's Glam Slam as the [[Wrestling/CarleneMoore Bitch Clamp]] due to RuleOfCool. Wrestling/JohnCena's Attitude Adjustment is still sometimes called the FU.
