00:00Welcome to WatchMojo and today we're counting down our picks for the times

00:11Dragon Ball characters threw hands and thoroughly wrecked their opponents. Or got wrecked.

00:1710. Vegeta vs Goku Black Rematch Dragon Ball Super

00:31If there is one thing Vegeta hates, it's losing to Goku. Er, sorry Kakarot. Not that he ever

00:37has, technically.

00:46Still, losing to Goku Black really gets under his skin. After some intense training, Vegeta

00:52comes back and lays the smackdown on the pink-haired imposter. Their rematch sees Vegeta punch Black

00:59through building after building. He then decks the god in Goku's clothing through a skyscraper

01:12and after telling him his unearned strength is no match for Kakarot's hard-trained power,

01:18he proceeds to punch him so hard the building explodes. To top it all off, he grabs Black by

01:24the hair, headbutts him, and calls him a fake, unworthy of fighting the great Prince Vegeta.

01:30You're an interloper, a Saiyan imposter.

01:35And I'm the real thing.

01:39The almighty Prince Vegeta!

01:45What a boss.

01:469. Goku vs the Ginyu Force Dragon Ball Z

01:51Everyone's hyped for Goku to arrive on Namek, particularly since everybody else is getting

01:56their butts kicked by Freeza's elite men, the Ginyu Force.

02:00It's quite an entrance he made. He's really fast, maybe even faster than you.

02:05You're right, give me a break. See low fighting power, he's all show. You're too easily impressed,

02:12Jayce.

02:13And when he finally arrives, he doesn't disappoint. After flexing on the group by showcasing his

02:18impressive speed, Goku takes out the monstrous raccoon with a single elbow to the gut,

02:24leaving him face down with his ass in the air.

02:36He follows it up by taking on Jayce and Berta at the same time.

02:40Goku repeatedly embarrasses the duo from decking Jayce mid-sentence to tricking them into hitting each

02:46other. No wonder Jayce goes crying home to Ginyu after Berta goes down.

02:568. Vegeta vs Final Form Freeza

02:59Dragon Ball Z

03:01Vegeta's arrogance has long been his undoing, and after nearly dying again and powering up on

03:07Namek, he's absolutely certain and absolutely wrong that he's a Super Saiyan.

03:19Facing Freeza in his then-final form, Vegeta unleashes a barrage of blasts against the tyrants,

03:25but all are ineffective. Freeza is just toying with him, and even when Vegeta breaks down in tears,

03:32Freeza decides to continue tormenting him. Choking him out with his tail, pummeling him in the stomach,

03:46Vegeta takes a lot of punishment here. Even Goku doing his thing and arriving at the last minute

03:52doesn't stop him from dying.

03:54Don't let him do it to anyone else. Whatever it takes. Stop him. Please.

04:107. King Piccolo vs Goku

04:14Dragon Ball

04:15Even as a kid, Goku rarely struggled against his opponents. One of the exceptions is King Piccolo.

04:22It's the only one of the worst.

04:30While the young Saiyan manages to hit the evil Namekian a few times at first,

04:35once Piccolo starts taking things seriously, Goku doesn't stand a chance. The kid gets punched

04:41through a boulder, pile-driven mid-air, and is sent scurrying for his life on all fours

04:47from Piccolo's finger blasts. Even a Kamehameha isn't enough to even phase Piccolo. If not for the

05:03Demon King mistakenly believing he killed Goku, the kid wouldn't have even survived to become an adult.

05:09I'm sorry things had to end this way, Goku. I'm sorry I couldn't help you, but you will receive a hero's burial.

05:186. Vegeta vs Golden Frieza

05:22Dragon Ball Super

05:23Vegeta may have gotten wrecked by Frieza at first, but he gets the last laugh.

05:27After his resurrection, Frieza makes trouble on Earth when he comes for revenge. When Goku screws

05:44up by letting Frieza live again, Vegeta steps in. He turns Super Saiyan blue and just tanks Frieza's

05:51many ki blasts. Then once Frieza makes the mistake of mocking his princely title,

06:09Vegeta takes the guy who killed him apart with a few choice punches and kicks. He even knocks the

06:15golden out of him. Unfortunately, this cathartic beatdown is soured by Frieza being a sole loser.

06:285. Broly vs Everyone

06:31Dragon Ball Z Broly, the legendary Super Saiyan. Usually when the heroes of Earth fight a bad guy,

06:37it's one at a time. But in this movie, they're not dealing with the average antagonist anymore.

06:43This is Broly.

06:56The legendary Super Saiyan powers up and the Z Fighters have basically nothing for him. He

07:02no-sells their strongest attacks. He delivers lariats to their throats and practically bulldozes

07:08his way through all of them. Broly doesn't even get tired. He only gets stronger as the fight goes on.

07:19If not for Goku combining all their ki into one strike against him, Broly would have killed them

07:25all and just kept going. Honestly, it's a bit of a cop-out, but his power was a little too maximum.

07:374. Goku vs Nituron Shenron

07:41Dragon Ball GT

07:42There are comparatively fewer beatdowns in this spin-off series, but Goku still lays down a brutal one

07:48against Nituron Shenron. The cowardly foe is willing to use Goku's granddaughter Pan as a hostage

08:03and as a means to power up. However, after the mole-like dragon's true form is exposed,

08:09Goku is easily able to handle him. Despite Nituron's desperate attempt to absorb a bird,

08:15Goku beats the dragon mid-air before vaporizing him with a kamehameha.

08:29If anything, Goku is just putting Nituron back where he belongs. Mauls love to be underground after

08:35all. 3. Vegeta vs Android 18

08:44Dragon Ball Z

08:45Vegeta and getting wrecked when he's cocky is one of Dragon Ball's most iconic duos.

08:51Yet, few of these occasions are as brutal as this one.

08:552. Vegeta vs Android 18

09:06Fresh off his Super Saiyan debut, Vegeta is ready to destroy some more androids. Except,

09:12Android 18 disappoints the prince by dashing his expectations. Also, his head against rocks,

09:18repeatedly. The deadly beauty downright demolishes Vegeta throughout their fight. Her arm-breaking

09:25kick is especially heinous. As if that weren't grisly enough, 18 follows it up by breaking the other

09:39arm. Honestly, if he wasn't such an arrogant jackass at the time, we'd feel sad for Vegeta.

09:452. Vegeta vs Broly Dragon Ball Super Broly

09:52While Broly's first movie may not have been canon, we can't help but feel that this is a meta form of

09:58revenge on Goku and Vegeta's parts. The duo fuses together into Gogeta and battles the legendary

10:05Super Saiyan. While Broly actually gives as good as he gets at first, it still feels like Gogeta is

10:21toying with him, adding extra little flourishes to all his attacks. But, once he turns Super Saiyan

10:28Blue, he really starts putting on the sauce and beating the hell out of Broly.

10:38Gogeta essentially clowns on him until Broly has to be saved by a wish on the Dragon Balls.

10:44So much for the legend!

11:221. Goku vs Nappa

11:24Dragon Ball Z Arriving late to the party is kind of Goku's thing.

11:29Unfortunately, in this case, half his friends are dead at Nappa's hands.

11:332. Goku vs Nappa

11:52After powering up and making Nappa and Vegeta have existential crises about his power level,

11:58Goku proceeds to tear the bold Saiyan apart. He dodges his every move while delivering

12:03brutal hits of his own in revenge for each of his fallen comrades.

12:14He even stands on Nappa's head. Of course, when Nappa loses his temper and goes for Gohan and Krillin,

12:21Goku stops holding back and uses the Kaioken to break Nappa's back. But at least Nappa has a caring

12:28friend like Vegeta to help him out with some medical atta- Oh, never mind.

12:32NO, VEGETAAAAAAA!
