1	* SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic: [[https://youtu.be/QUdslSdQdk8 The end credits song]], sung by John Joyce.
2	* BigLippedAlligatorMoment: The scene where Rip and Samantha go to the diner, and Rip foils a robbery there. The robbers escape but none of this is ever mentioned again.
3	* CultClassic: Amongst wrestling fans.
4	* HamAndCheese: Having fun, Creator/TinyLister?
5	** Brell is almost as over the top as Zeus.
6	* HilariousInHindsight: In the movie, a rich media mogul attempts to sign Hulk Hogan, which fails. In real life, Hulk Hogan would later sign with a rich media mogul that also happened to own WCW.
7	** Admit it, it's hard to see Zeus's defeat and not exclaim [[Film/{{Friday}} "You got knocked the]] ''[[PotHole fuck]]'' [[Film/{{Friday}} out!"]].
8	** The rules of ''Battle of the Tough Guys'' are ''the exact same'' as the ones used by the ''UsefulNotes/UltimateFightingChampionship''. And this film came ''4 years'' before that sport was created. Hell, the octagonal ring used in the final fight is prescient of the UFC Octagon.
9	* MoralEventHorizon: If Brell didn't cross it when he [[AttemptedRape tries to have Samantha raped]], he's utterly, irredeemably over it when [[KickTheDog he sics Zeus on Rip's brother, beating him so badly he needs a wheelchair afterward]].
10	* {{Narm}}: Quite possibly one of the Narmiest movies ever made. Pretty much the only reason to watch it is for the NarmCharm.
11	** Zeus' constant screaming
12	** Rip managing to burst through the top of a limo like an explosion (leading to the infamous "dookie" scene)
13	** The ridiculously over-the-top final fight.
14	** Hogan's never been the best actor in the world, but his snarling and grunting in some parts of the movie border on cartoonish.
15	** "''[[BringMyBrownPants ...Dookie?]]''"
16	* OneSceneWonder: Stan Hansen AKA the guy who makes fun of Brell's minion's "teenie weenies".
17	* RetroactiveRecognition: While Zeus' actor, Tom Lister was reasonably well-known as an actor at the time, younger fans might know him as [[OneSceneWonder the prisoner]] who [[spoiler: refused to take part in The Joker's "social experiment"]] in ''Film/TheDarkKnight.''
18	* SignatureScene: The "dookie" scene, largely due to Hogan's hilariously bad acting making an already ridiculous scene into a farce beyond what words could describe.
19	* SoBadItsGood: It's ''really'' hard to take this movie seriously, especially in today's more postmodern ProfessionalWrestling circles. Many enjoy it for the cheesiness however.
