Gimmicks
Sometimes, jobbing may be used as a gimmick. While in ECW, Al Snow began referring to jobbing on-screen as part of his gimmick. He subsequently formed a stable called the J.O.B. Squad. Also, in World Championship Wrestling since 1994, the tendency of the Armstrongs (particularly Brad Armstrong) to lose matches was referred to as the "Armstrong curse". On average, however, Brad was more of a jobber to the stars, while his brothers were pure jobbers for the most part.
Steve Lombardi, better known as the Brooklyn Brawler in the WWF, is often recognized as the most famous jobber for the majority of his in-ring career and has since become a part of his character.
The Barry Horowitz/Skip feud in the WWF during the Summer of 1995 revolved around how Horowitz's constant losing streak ended when he defeated Skip.
In 2003, after he returned from his neck injury, Chris Kanyon did a jobber angle, which his gimmick was "Who's Better Than Kanyon? Nobody" and he ends up jobbing to opponents on WWE Velocity.
A jobber angle involved Montel Vontavious Porter (MVP), whose continual losses during the end of 2008 – including embarrassing losses in which he was pinned by roll-ups from mid-level WWE superstars – have, and also cost him the signing bonus he received when he joined WWE.
In 2012, Heath Slater tried to do what Randy Orton did, and become a "Legend Killer". This led to him wrestling Big Van Vader, Doink the Clown, Rikishi, Road Warrior Animal, Sycho Sid and even Lita), losing to each except Doink, in Raw's 1000th episode. This culminated when Randy Orton actually faced off against Slater, defeating him with an RKO
