* AttackAttackAttack: There is no defense in jousting. The only option is for rider and horse to charge in hard, aim well, strike hard, and hope for the best.
** The show's host, really hates sloppy lance control for a number of reasons. During latter episodes, you could hear him get more and more disgusted with lance to lance parries that resulted in mere touches on the scoring plate of the each other's armor.

* BerserkButton: When Josh is on the verge of losing a match, his coach tells him "You're stealing a hundred thousand dollars from your daughter." Cue a RoaringRampageOfRevenge.
* BodyHorror: Some of the injuries obtained can invoke this.
* BulletTime: Used often to review a joust. Special mention for it capturing the horses ducking or tracking a lance.

* CurbStompBattle: Any time a double unhorsing takes place.

* PintSizedPowerhouse: James, who is the smallest guy, but whose riding ability gives him accuracy and power.
* TestosteronePoisoning: Like you wouldn't believe. Jousting makes rugby look tame.
