** The way Goku uses Instant Transmission in this episode—abruptly vanishing from a still frame accompanied by a little "pop" noise—is awfully similar to how Brain Guy teleports stuff in ''Series/MysteryScienceTheater3000''.

[cut to Gohan fighting Slug's henchmen]\\
'''Gohan:''' [[MemeticMutation WOLVERINES!]]
* Dorodabo's "Please don't break my arm" line is spoken like it's being read from textspeak. This is possibly a reference to a troll on ''VideoGame/SecondLife'' named Ralph Pootawn. He`s a big green creature that when is asked to "Plz" not do something responds with "No".
* Slug drops both a [[Franchise/MortalKombat "COME HERE!" and a "GET OVER HERE!"]] when attempting to grab Goku with his stretchy arms.
[[AC:Revenge of Cooler Abridged]]

-->'''Salza:''' [[VideoGame/DonkeyKongCountry Hello, Diddy... where's Donkey]]?

Also [[Music/ChrisBrown Chris of the Clan Brown]], but he's been exiled.

* After Gohan gets kidnapped by the robots:
--> '''Piccolo''': I'm coming!\\
'''Krillin''': [[WesternAnimation/{{Archer}} Phrasing!]] I mean, HELP!

* The music that plays during Cooler's regeneration is the theme of the [[WesternAnimation/MegasXLR REGIS mk. V]].
* Goku's line to Vegeta when the two destroy a metal Cooler is a reference to the [[Film/GarbagePailKids Garbage Pail Kids]] movie.
--> '''Goku''': See? We can do anything by working with each other…
* When the Big Getti Star beeps after Cooler reveals how he survived, Cooler replies, [[WesternAnimation/{{Futurama}} "Shut up baby, I know it!"]]

* Continuing the ''Series/DoctorWho'' shout outs associated with Future Trunks, a brief snippet of the Eleventh Doctor's theme plays when Trunks faces off against Super Android 13, even accompanied by a rather Doctor-esque speech from Trunks.
