History Wrestling / ChristopherDaniels

* EvenEvilHasStandards: The point of The Prophecy may have been to tear down the ROH code, but even they could not pretend they did not respect Wrestling/TheGreatMuta.

** Back in 2000, when Wrestling/{{Edge}} and Wrestling/{{Christian}} had revived the "Conquistadores" gimmick in an attempt at getting a shot at the [[http://www.wrestling-titles.com/wwe/wwe-world-t.html WWE World Tag Team Titles]], Daniels and Aaron Aguilera, as "Rick" and "Sparky," were the alternate Conquistadores when E&C needed to "prove" they weren't under the masks.

** (in Wrestling/{{AAA}}): [[ForeignWrestlingHeel La Legion Extranjera]] (led by Wrestling/{{Konnan}}, with LoadsAndLoadsOfCharacters.)

** He showed up on ''[=Numb3rs=]'' with Tito Ortiz.

* DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment: Whenever he and Kazarian are Tag Team Champions, they refer to themselves as "The World Tag Team Champions of the World".

* BaldOfAwesome / BaldOfEvil: Depending on whether he's a {{Face}} or {{Heel}}. Matt Taven declared the bald head of Daniels to be an affront against {{God}}, given that Chris used to have hair as far back as the early days of his wrestling career before he came to TNA. In WCW it was dyed blonde.

* GettingCrapPastTheRadar: His black "GFY glove", which covers all his fingers except [[FlippingTheBird the middle finger]] (and the thumb, if that counts).

* CrowdChant: The TNA fans figured out pretty quickly who "Suicide" was and chanted "Daniels" during "Suicide's" matches. As Chris Sabin put it "That ass is unmistakable". However, perhaps not ''too'' unmistakeable because they kept the chant up after Frankie Kazarian had taken the suit and did a pretty good job of imitating him.

** {{Exploited| trope}} after [[Wrestling/MickieJames Alexis Laree]] attacked Prophecy stablemate Simply Lucious in a vain attempt to stop her from ruining AJ Styles's shot at winning the ROH Heavyweight Championship from another Prophecy stablemate, Xavier. Christopher Daniels accused Laree of having no honor and dared her to face Simply Luscious head on in the ring. Laree accepted and [[{{Hypocrite}} Daniels jumped Laree from behind, laying her out with the last rites]].
** Later in TNA, Jim Cornette {{Enforced| trope}} this trope in TNA so Daniels and Wrestling/AJStyles went and hired Sirelda to stop Wrestling/GailKim from screwing them out of the tag team titles.

* UrExample: One half of the first Wrestling/{{N|ationalWrestlingAlliance}}WA Midwest Tag Team Champions, alongside Kevin Quinn and one half of the first ROH Tag Team Champions, alongside The Prophecy member Donovan Morgan.

* UrExample: One half of the first Wrestling/{{N|ationalWrestlingAlliance}}WA Midwest Tag Team Champions, alongside Kevin Quinn.

* InkSuitActor: In ''Awe Yeah Comics'' with Wrestling/FrankieKazarian.

** "This is the worsst town I've ever been to"

* DiabolusExMachina: Bad Influence owes its existence to this trope. He and Kazarian had issues with each other and were pretty much thrown back together after the end of Fortune just to make AJ Styles's life more difficult…hey, {{tropes are not bad}}.

* ChivalrousPervert: Curry Man, who did prevent Shark Boy from "stomping a fishing hole" in the Wrestling/AngelinaLove but also was constantly trying to get her to agree to a date with him, when accusing Shark Boy of such was part of the reason why he was going to attack her in the first place.

* AffectionateParody: The Prince Justice Brotherhood (Curry Man, Wrestling/SharkBoy and Super Eric Young) was one of {{Superhero}}es. [[note]]Prince Justice was one of Abyss's old gimmicks.[[/note]]

* VillainWithGoodPublicity: He didn't get the worship he desires but did throw the first pitch at in The Hangar at Lancaster, CA prior to the Lancaster [=JetHawks=] hosting the San Jose Giants.

* CoolTeacher: He's been trained by Kevin Quinn and Dory Funk Jr. He's given training to B-Boy and Wrestling/CheerleaderMelissa.

* AffectionateParody: The Prince Justice Brotherhood (Curry Man, Shark Boy and Super Eric Young) was one of {{Superhero}}es. [[note]]Prince Justice was one of Abyss's old gimmicks.[[/note]]

"The Fallen Angel" Christopher Daniels (real name: Daniel Christopher Covell, born March 24, 1970) is a [[ProfessionalWrestling professional wrestler]], student of Mike Anthony, who made his debut in Windy City Pro Wrestling in 1993 and went on to have brief stints in the World Wrestling Federation and [[Wrestling/{{WCW}} World Championship Wrestling]]. He is best known for his time in [[Wrestling/ImpactWrestling TNA]] and Wrestling/RingOfHonor, with him being one of the founding fathers of the latter promotion: the first wrestler to seriously threaten the code of honor. He is also in the East Coast Wrestling Alliance Hall Of Fame.

* AbortedArc: The Claire Lynch angle ended up being canned early, as people discovered the actress' online acting profiles and started sending her abuse

* {{Anticlimax}}: He signed with WCW and a match between him and Michael Modest was heavily hyped. The match was actually entirely awesome — until it ended with Wrestling/ScottSteiner running in and kayfabe breaking both their ankles with a pipe. Neither one would be seen in WCW again. To make it a little worse, Daniels underperformed a bit and was overshadowed by Modest, who put in one of the best performances of his career.

* AwardShow: The Extraordinary Gentlemen's Organization opened up their own Hall Of Fame and inducted Bobby Roode in protest for Wrestling/KurtAngle being inducted into the TNA Hall Of Fame.
