When your actions end up helping your bro get the girl he's been going after. However it was never your intention to play the wingman and try to get them together. It just happened to play out that way. Can also happen with a girl accidentally helping her gf get a guy.
Bro: Hey so how did your date with brosky go?
Girl: It wasn't a date, we just hanged out.
Bro: Of course it was a date, he told me all about he was excited and... umm...
Girl: wait, he likes me?
Bro: I mean... so this weather has been crazy recently right?
Girl: Oh wow I can't believe I didn't see it till now. I guess I do kinda like him too.
*Later*
Brosky: Bro I can't believe you told her!
Bro: I didn't know she didn't know man! It was an accident.
Brosky: Well whatever, you were my accidental wingman. So thanks.
Bro: so you two do it yet?
Brosky: We're like rabbits bro!
Bro: nice!
A trade completed by an NBA executive who is a former champion of the club he's trading his player(s) to. Usually Wingman Trades are massively lopsided, appearing to make one party seem like a "wingman" who completely screws himself over for the benefit of his buddy who reaps the rewards/nails the prom queen.
Recent Wingman Trades include KG to Boston, and Gasol to LA.
Lakers fan: "Dude! Did you hear? Gasol got sent to the Lakers for absolutely nothing! How the f--k did they pull that off?!"
Grizzlies fan: "Wingman Trade. F--k you"

The unsung hero of a bridal party, usually older than a ring bearer and younger than a groomsman, whose responsibility it is to leverage his cuteness to hookup groomsmen with available bridesmaids. If the groomsman lacks the confidence necessary for the mission to succeed, it is also the responsibility of the chicken wingman to call him, "CHICKEN!" and ply him with drinks (and optional celery stalks) until the mission is completed successfully.
Groomsman: "The bride's cousin looks pretty hot in that seasonally appropriate dress that she'll never wear again; but, I don't know if I can talk to her."
Chicken wingman: "Chicken! Do this shot of tequila, munch on these celery stalks, and then we'll go over there, and I'll introduce you."
Groomsman: "Thanks, buddy. You're a great chicken wingman."
When you see a girl you like and you hook up with her without getting a good look at her friend. You proceed to call your wingman over to hook up with her friend. Then you realize you hooked your friend up with the better looking girl. Hence, the reverse wingman.
*after the hook up*
Elliot: "Man I hooked up with a hot chick last night"
K-Dub: "So did I. I appreciate being the wingman with a the better looking chick. I'm always cool with being the reverse wingman."
