Cuphead literally is a cup head

The Price was wrong for Chloe

Chun-Li is used to fighting Dragon Punches, so a Dragon was easy pickings

Does anyone even know what a Neku Sakuraba is?

Dante has a longer history. Lightning is in a more popular series. Chun-Li is Chun-Li. And no one cares about Neku.

Nice to see this topic back, nobody answering in 2015 was frustrating for all the hilarious history:
https://board8.wikia.com/wiki/Why_Did_They_Lose%3F

Anyway, backing some answers:

Cuphead made a Deal with the Devil and the Devil Hunter came knocking.

After granting him a win in 2013, the kiddies have returned to their eternal slumber

His price to play the Reaper's Game on the Switch was any chance he had of winning a contest match

Cuphead -

Well...
Cuphead and his 16 seed,
They like to roll the dice,
By chance they came,
On Allen's game,
And gosh they paid the price!
Paid the priiiiice!

And now they're fighting for their lives
In a bracket filled with dread,
And if they proceed,
But don't succeed,

Well...
Devil May Cry'll take their heads!
