Imagine if WWE not only retained the Attitude mentality, but turned it up to eleven.

You get WWE Over The Edge, an alternate universe, machinima take on WWE, which uses Yukes's line of WWE games as the base.

Be forewarned. Spoiler tags are only for Summerslam 2012-present; anything before that will be unmarked.

!This work provides examples of:

* AssholeVictim: See Laser-Guided Karma.
* TheAtoner: Dolph Ziggler. [[spoiler: Outing the chairman's affair with Summer Rae probably wasn't the best thing to do after all.]]
* AxCrazy: One would expect Dean Ambrose to be this, but he raises the stakes. [[spoiler: He ripped off Cody Rhodes's ear at Summerslam.]]
* BatmanGambit: This is a big one. [[spoiler: Edge knew AJ Lee would end up retaliating on him after the plan he made with Trish Stratus, so he deliberately needled her to the point where she caused the limo accident that presumably ended his career. Along with that, he knew Christian would jump to his defense and try to get to the bottom of everything. However, everything Christian believed was all wrong, right down to the limo that was used. Oh, and the whole thing cost Captain Charisma his career AND the World Heavyweight Championship, too.]]
* BeautyIsNeverTarnished: Averted.
* BigBad: Drew [=McIntyre=], as he would crash WWE to the point where he got Raw and Smackdown thrown off the air after ''Wrestling/HellInACell 2011'', which would eventually lead into the birth of Octane. His status as this is coming under threat after he [[spoiler: cheated on Stephanie [=McMahon=].]]
** [[spoiler: Edge has run away with the throne after the Survivor Series.]]
* TheChessmaster: Edge.
* DarkerAndEdgier: It has enough sex and violence to the point where it makes '''ECW''' look like Universe Era WWE.
* DespairEventHorizon: The Undertaker hit it after Aces High after losing the Ministry of Darkness, any chance at getting control of WWE, and being rejected by his own brother Kane. [[spoiler: Enter Bray Wyatt...]]
* ExactWords: When laying down the rules for the Elimination Chase leading to the Survivor Series, Stone Cold mentioned that anyone who has participated in a World Heavyweight Championship match in 2012 was eligible. [[spoiler: The Intergender Double Title TLC Match at Aces High ''did'' count after all.]]
* HotterAndSexier: Trish Stratus after turning on the Miz and aligning with Edge, and Stephanie [=McMahon=]-[=McIntyre=], [[spoiler:who now has Kaitlyn under her employ.]]
* IKnowYoureInThereSomewhereFight: Kane had this with Undertaker at Summerslam, which he lost. At Duality, he went after Bray Wyatt himself in a coffin match. [[spoiler: Not only did he lose that one too, but Bray ordered Undertaker to set the coffin on fire. He did.]]
* IronicEcho: Cody Rhodes beat Mick Foley at Wrestlemania to become the new Hardcore Icon. As of Summerslam, [[spoiler: Rhodes is now missing an ear, just like Foley.]]
* KarmaHoudini: The Miz was turning this into an art form, until Survivor Series.
* KilledOffForReal: [[spoiler: Kane, at the hands of Undertaker and Bray Wyatt... presumably.]]
* LaserGuidedKarma: [[spoiler: Stephanie [=McMahon=] cheated and turned on HHH to get with Drew [=McIntyre=]. Months later, thanks to Dolph Ziggler and Big E, it comes out that Drew cheated on her with Summer Rae. Unsurprisingly, she goes absolutely nuclear.]]
* MoreThanMindControl: Bray Wyatt flawlessly does this to [[spoiler:the Undertaker]].
* NoHoldsBarredBeatdown: [[spoiler: Summer Rae caught one from hired gun Paige for her role in the Chosen One's affair.]]
* PowerStable: The Empire[[note]]Drew [=McIntyre=], Wade Barrett, Sheamus, Randy Orton[[/note]], Paul Heyman's Juggernaut [[note]]Brock Lesnar, Jack Swagger, and Ken Shamrock[[/note]].
* PutOnABus: Mr. [=McMahon=] after Powertrip, courtesy of CM Punk. Randy Orton after Wrestlemania.
** CM Punk hasn't been seen since Summerslam himself.
* PyrrhicVictory: Triple H defeated Drew [=McIntyre=] in their blowoff Wrestling/HellInACell match at Summerslam. [[spoiler: However, Drew would have the ultimate victory by breaking HHH's neck and ending his career.]]
* RealLifeWritesThePlot: Raw and Smackdown getting thrown off the air. This was done to facilitate the transition from WWE 12 to WWE 13.
* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: Stone Cold Steve Austin after Summerslam, as one would expect.
* SerialEscalation: This one crosses into meta territory: Stone Cold promised an industry-shattering announcement, and it ended up being [[spoiler:that not only will the 2013 Royal Rumble take place in Tokyo, BUT NEW JAPAN PRO WRESTLING WILL BE INVOLVED.]]
* ShamefulStrip: Stephanie [=McMahon=]-[=McIntyre=], at the hands of Triple H. She got Pedigreed soon after.
* ShownTheirWork: One of OTE's major calling cards. Video packages include lines from real-life promos spliced together to fit the match, and all of it is done seamlessly. Even the amount of detail put into their mods is jaw-dropping.
* TheDogBitesBack: It would not be wise to break AJ's heart. Edge paid for this mistake with his career.
* TooDumbToLive: '''COREY GRAVES.''' More often than not, Sami Zayn has to try to bail him out of trouble, which ends up with him getting beaten up as well. [[spoiler: This includes [[BigNo crashing]] Kane's 10 bell salute.]]
* WalkingSpoiler: AJ and Trish are big ones, but Stephanie [=McMahon=]-[=McIntyre=] is the chief one.
* WouldHitAGirl: Most notably: Big Show, Edge, and Triple H.
* YankTheDogsChain: [[spoiler: When it seemed that Christian would finally reach the top of the mountain, Edge and Trish Stratus not only cost him the World Heavyweight Championship, but his career as well. Oh, and everything he gathered about Edge's career ending limo accident was all wrong, too.]]
* YouGoGirl: [[spoiler: Five words: World Heavyweight Champion Trish Stratus. And it's possible Lita will be her first challenger for it.]]
