- Complete Monster: Brick Top.
- Crosses the Line Twice: Big time.

- Memetic Badass: Boris the Blade.
- Moral Event Horizon: In response to learning that Mickey wants a caravan for his mother in exchange for fighting, Bricktop responds by having Mickey's mum's caravan burnt down. While she's still in it.
