After the release of M19, we now have at least two cards where the typeline is exactly the same as the card name (Dragon Egg and Skeleton Archer). So now I'm wondering if there's any cards where the flavor text basically restates the name of the card.
For instance, if there was a card named "Fall into Disgrace" and its flavor text was just "How the mighty have fallen". I'm genuinely curious if such a thing exists.

Your new prescription eyeglasses don’t work. You still can’t see things my way.
First, there are several creatures that have the same name as their typeline. For instance, Viashino Skeleton, Lizard Warrior, and Zombie Assassin. Others have achieved this unique attribute via errata. When 'jackal' was officially made a creature type, Dauthi Jackal became, well, a dauthi jackal.
As for what I thought was the original intent of this thread, I'd say Rancor fits the bill, at least on printings that didn't leave out the flavor text. Side note, "rancor" rhymes with "anchor."
