Don't Wake the Sleeping Badass

The Sleeping Badass may be in retirement; they may have been in a coma; or they may not yet know they are a badass to begin with. Sometimes they just don't feel the need to fight back yet. Often an event in life (usually caused by the antagonists) wakes the Sleeping Badass up and on principle, for revenge, or to protect their loved ones, the Sleeping Badass finds themselves rising to the challenge.
Sometimes intersecting with the "Hidden Badass" and revenge plots, this is a structure I particularly enjoy in action movies. Sequels are not included because, at least for the audience, the badass has already been woken up. Enjoy!
