* OnceASeason: See CharlieBrownFromOuttaTown above. TNA got into a weird habit of "firing" him almost once a year during a "Feast or Fired" match, and then him coming back in another persona. First Christopher Daniels, then Curry Man, then Suicide (albeit accidentally), then simply as "Daniels" (and not even he understands why). It was there that they ran out of ideas and gave up.
* OneOfUs: ''Massive'' comic book fanatic, gamer, and Series/DoctorWho [[http://www.comicbookresources.com/prev_img.php?pid=9923&pg=9 villain]].
* RedBaron: The Fallen Angel.
* RetroactiveRecognition: Astute fans who hung tough during the twilight days of {{WCW}} will remember Daniels as having made his [=TV=] debut during one of the final Nitros. Despite his most memorable moment being a botched move off the rope resulting in him bouncing three feet in the air off the top of his head, he showed a great deal of promise and technical savvy and was signed to a contract. Unfortunately, {{WWF}} completed their purchase of the company just a couple of weeks later and he never got to wrestle for [=WCW=] again, nor was his contract picked up by the [=WWF=] when the dust settled.
* RoaringRampageOfRevenge: His reason for returning to TNA in 2011 is to take revenge for AJStyles being taken out by Bully Ray.
* SanitySlippage: Fell under this at ''Bound for Glory'' 2011, complete with {{evil laugh}} and [[IneffectualDeathThreats ineffectual death threat]].
** Now he's claiming that he just "beat" AJStyles and RobVanDam after pretty much every time he interacts with them.
* SpotMonkey: Averted; Daniels employs a wrestling style with many impressive spots, but manages to actually chain them together with decent wrestling, and thus avoid being tarred with the Spot Monkey brush.
* TakeUpMySword: Took over AJStyles place as leader of Fortune after AJ got taken out by Bully Ray.
* TheOnlyOneAllowedToDefeatYou: See Destination X 2011, and the AJ Styles match, rivalry. SamoaJoe is not impressed.
* TheReasonYouSuckSpeech: Daniels delivered one of these to ROH fans as a heel, right before departing the company for TNA.
