Most Overused Wrestling Trope?

By Scott Keith on 22 November 2019

What wrestling trope would you say is the most overused? Not so much the one you hate the most, but the one that is played out? For me it would have to be the one where 2 wrestlers are facing each other in a match,(or even a tag team match), and other wrestlers interfere after a while, then it is turned into a tag team match/super tag team match. I've seen enough of this trope in the last 10 years to last me a lifetime.
I find ref bumps in general to be completely overplayed, and I'm glad AEW hasn't yet started down that particular road.
