* In ''Survivor Series 2014'' Triple H has the match rigged to tip the odds in his favor. He pays Wrestling/TheBigShow to knock out Wrestling/JohnCena early in the match, and when it came down to Wrestling/DolphZiggler facing off against Wrestling/SethRollins, Triple H knocks out good referees and brings out a phony referee to make the match his. Just then, Wrestling/{{Sting}} makes his WWE debut by storming the ring and knocking out the referee and Triple H, leaving Dolph to take the win and overthrow Wrestling/TheAuthority.

** Wrestling/MikeQuackenbush was facing [[Wrestling/DevonStorm Crowbar]], and Crowbar's valet Syrena kept interfering. Quack headed to the back to find a partner, Crowbar followed...and practically ''dove'' through the curtain when he realized who Quack had found as a partner. Quack and Luna ultimately won the resultant mixed-tag match.

One wrestler thought to go a step further: Mark Callaway. Dropping his persona of Wrestling/TheUndertaker, Mark Callaway hunted down [[Wrestling/VinceMcMahon Vince [=McMahon=]]] to his office, pounded on the door and said, [[SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome "If you don't open this door and get your ass out here I'll knock it down and kick it."]] Vince did answer, and Callaway said, "If you still want to have a company tomorrow, you better apologize to BretHart."

* Subverted at ''Wrestling/{{WCW}} Fall Brawl 1996'', in which Team WCW was to fight the [[Wrestling/NewWorldOrder NWO]] in a [[GimmickMatches WarGames match]]. {{Wrestling/Sting}} was originally supposed to be part of Team WCW, but then the nWo announced Sting had joined them (while running around with [[CostumeCopycat a fake Sting]]), and would be part of their team instead. Team WCW believed that Sting had actually betrayed them, and went in a man down, and thus were getting their clock cleaned by the nWo. But who should arrive as WCW's fourth man but the real Sting! Sting beat up the entire nWo team all by himself -- ''and then walked out of the match'', angry because the WCW guys (including his own best friend Lex Luger) distrusted him enough to believe he'd actually join the nWo. WCW lost the match when Luger submitted to the fake Sting's [[FinishingMove Scorpion Deathlock]].

Dreamer was fighting against all four guys as best he could until it became obvious that he was outnumbered. With Dreamer down, Doring got on the mic and talked about how he's the best looking guy in the locker room, the most hardcore and the best dancer, and decided to prove it by dancing, with his theme, Music/SoulCoughing's "Super Bon Bon" playing. Then "Let Me Clear My Throat" by DJ Kool hit, and [[Wrestling/MikeBucci Super Nova]] ran out with a STOP sign followed by Wrestling/TheBlueMeanie with a garbage can full of weapons. Wrestling/JoeyStyles called them, "Blue Jack and [=Novastafa=]!" Meanie and Nova emptied out the weapons, which included a tennis racket, a chair, a '''ComicBook/CaptainAmerica shield''' and more. Dreamer [[FinishingMove DDT'd]] Victory on the shield, and found among the weapons a '''bowling ball bag'''. He placed the shield on Victory's groin and dropped the bowling ball bag ''there'' for the pin. After the match, Meanie and Nova dragged Wright into the ring and set him up in the corner with his legs spread. Dreamer then debuted the bowling ball to the groin spot that Al Snow would later use in WWE, with Joey saying, "[=Steerike!=]" Dreamer's music, Music/AliceInChains' "Man in the Box" as he, Meanie and Nova did New Jack's [[UsefulNotes/MalcolmX "X" sign]], before "Let Me Clear My Throat" came back on and Dreamer, after a brief moment of reluctance, danced in the ring alongside Meanie and Nova.

Then "Let Me Clear My Throat" by DJ Kool hit, and [[Wrestling/MikeBucci Super Nova]] ran out with a STOP sign followed by Wrestling/TheBlueMeanie with a garbage can full of weapons. Wrestling/JoeyStyles called them, "Blue Jack and [=Novastafa=]!" Meanie and Nova emptied out the weapons, which included a tennis racket, a chair, a '''ComicBook/CaptainAmerica shield''' and more. Dreamer [[FinishingMove DDT'd]] Victory on the shield, and found among the weapons a '''bowling ball bag'''. He placed the shield on Victory's groin and dropped the bowling ball bag ''there'' for the pin. After the match, Meanie and Nova dragged Wright into the ring and set him up in the corner with his legs spread. Dreamer then debuted the bowling ball to the groin spot that Al Snow would later use in WWE, with Joey saying, "[=Steerike!=]" Dreamer's music, Music/AliceInChains' "Man in the Box" as he, Meanie and Nova did New Jack's [[MalcolmX [[UsefulNotes/MalcolmX "X" sign]], before "Let Me Clear My Throat" came back on and Dreamer, after a brief moment of reluctance, danced in the ring alongside Meanie and Nova.

* During the main event of September 16, 2013, DanielBryan was going to win against Roman Reigns of the Shield...until RandyOrton interferes and viciously attacks the former. It looked like Orton was going to do the same thing he had done to TheMiz earlier that night (trying to break his neck)...but just then, the [[{{Face}} faces]] of the WWE rush out and aid Bryan in fighting off Orton and the Shield. They give Bryan the honors of finally finishing off his foe and hoist him onto their shoulders, celebrating the victory.

* On the September 9 (taped August 29), 1998 episode of ''Wrestling/{{ECW}} Hardcore TV'', Wrestling/TommyDreamer was in a gauntlet match against Lance Wright's[[note]]Former host of the "Hype Central" segments who had become part of the pro-WWF side in 1997-1998 before that feud faded out[[/note]] stable of "Dastardly" Danny Doring, Jack Victory, "The Canadian Tiger" Mike Lozansky and the Equalizer[[note]]Not the same guy who had been Wrestling/KevinSullivan's [[{{Kayfabe}} dyslexic]] [[UnrelatedBrothers "brother"]] Dave Sullivan in Wrestling/{{WCW}}.[[/note]], with the intention of getting revenge for Wrestling/NewJack, who Victory had put out of action with a ripped groin. Dreamer was fighting against all four guys as best he could until it became obvious that he was outnumbered. With Dreamer down, Doring got on the mic and talked about how he's the best looking guy in the locker room, the most hardcore and the best dancer, and decided to prove it by dancing, with his theme, Music/SoulCoughing's "Super Bon Bon" playing. Then "Let Me Clear My Throat" by DJ Kool hit, and [[Wrestling/MikeBucci Super Nova]] ran out with a STOP sign followed by Wrestling/TheBlueMeanie with a garbage can full of weapons. Wrestling/JoeyStyles called them, "Blue Jack and [=Novastafa=]!" Meanie and Nova emptied out the weapons, which included a tennis racket, a chair, a '''ComicBook/CaptainAmerica shield''' and more. Dreamer [[FinishingMove DDT'd]] Victory on the shield, and found among the weapons a '''bowling ball bag'''. He placed the shield on Victory's groin and dropped the bowling ball bag ''there'' for the pin. After the match, Meanie and Nova dragged Wright into the ring and set him up in the corner with his legs spread. Dreamer then debuted the bowling ball to the groin spot that Al Snow would later use in WWE, with Joey saying, "[=Steerike!=]" Dreamer's music, Music/AliceInChains' "Man in the Box" as he, Meanie and Nova did New Jack's [[MalcolmX "X" sign]], before "Let Me Clear My Throat" came back on and Dreamer, after a brief moment of reluctance, danced in the ring alongside Meanie and Nova.

* Wrestling/{{Kurrgan}} actually had this as his ''gimmick'' when he started his career as the Acadian Giant in the Atlantic Grand Prix Wrestling promotion in [[UsefulNotes/CanadianProvincesAndTerritories the Maritimes]] in the late 1980s, which makes sense, given that he's 7 feet tall and 350 lbs.

Added DiffLines:

* This is called the run-in, and can be done by both heels and faces alike -- but there's nothing like the crowd going wild when a face runs in to save an overmatched friend.
** Many tag team matches contain a variant of the Big Damn Heroes called the RickyMorton, where in one member of a tag team is beaten down, and after a period, tags in his fresh partner to the cheers of the crowd. The person giving the tag is the Ricky Morton, the one receiving the tag is going to get a Big Damn Heroes moment.
** An example of a pro-wrestling Big Damn Hero moment would be [[Wrestling/StoneColdSteveAustin "Stone Cold" Steve Austin]] saving [[Wrestling/StephanieMcMahon Stephanie [=McMahon=]]] from Wrestling/TheUndertaker's black wedding on Monday Night RAW.
* Subverted at ''Wrestling/{{WCW}} Fall Brawl 1996'', in which Team WCW was to fight the [[Wrestling/NewWorldOrder NWO]] in a [[GimmickMatches WarGames match]]. {{Wrestling/Sting}} was originally supposed to be part of Team WCW, but then the nWo announced Sting had joined them (while running around with [[CostumeCopycat a fake Sting]]), and would be part of their team instead. Team WCW believed that Sting had actually betrayed them, and went in a man down, and thus were getting their clock cleaned by the nWo. But who should arrive as WCW's fourth man but the real Sting! Sting beat up the entire nWo team all by himself -- ''and then walked out of the match'', angry because the WCW guys (including his own best friend Lex Luger) distrusted him enough to believe he'd actually join the nWo. WCW lost the match when Luger submitted to the fake Sting's [[FinishingMove Scorpion Deathlock]].
* At ''[[Wrestling/RingOfHonor ROH]] Death Before Dishnor IV'', Team ROH (Wrestling/SamoaJoe[=/=]Ace Steel[=/=]BJ Whitmer[=/=]Adam Pearce[=/=]Wrestling/BryanDanielson) was looking at a surefire loss to Team Wrestling/{{CZW}} (Chris Hero[=/=][[Wrestling/AntonioCesaro Claudio Castagnoli]][=/=]Necro Butcher[=/=]Nate Webb[=/=][[Wrestling/{{CHIKARA}} Eddie Kingston]]) in Cage of Death after Wrestling/BryanDanielson clipped Wrestling/SamoaJoe's knee, taking both out of the match, leaving a TWO man advantage for Combat Zone Wrestling. Then, in comes Homicide as the unofficial sixth ROH member. Still down a man, Homicide pinned Nate Webb to win Cage of Death for ROH.
* A RealLife example, after the Wrestling/MontrealScrewjob many wrestlers were confused and angry, and Wrestling/MickFoley decided he was going to quit and no show. One wrestler thought to go a step further: Mark Callaway. Dropping his persona of Wrestling/TheUndertaker, Mark Callaway hunted down [[Wrestling/VinceMcMahon Vince [=McMahon=]]] to his office, pounded on the door and said, [[SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome "If you don't open this door and get your ass out here I'll knock it down and kick it."]] Vince did answer, and Callaway said, "If you still want to have a company tomorrow, you better apologize to BretHart." Vince listened.
* During the showdown between Wrestling/JohnCena and Wrestling/{{Ryback}}, Wrestling/TheShield arrives to beat the crap out of Ryback as usual. But Cena (whom Ryback had accused of not saving him from them) comes back with a steel chair and drives them away with it. Thus, he proved him wrong by coming to his aid that night.
* When he's a face, and the newest monster heel is in the ring destroying members of the roster, Wrestling/TheUndertaker tends to perform this.
* When Wrestling/MickFoley was going to deliver a speech before his induction into the Hall Of Fame, The Shield interfere, saying that he ruined the lives of many wrestlers. Cue Wrestling/RicFlair coming in to assist him.
