Wrestlers and the world of music

Vince135792003

Wrestling and music have tended to go hand in hand ever since the Rock N Wrestling days in the 1980's with MTV, Cynidi Lauper and all that.
So here's a thread dedicated to all of the times wrestlers have entered the music world. Post other videos or just discuss what's posted.

Here's three to start off:

1. The place where it all began in some ways; "Girls just want to have fun" with Cyndi Lauper singing and Lou Albano (the fat hairy guy) being the concerned father: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eVwFeQpy_Us

2. Roddy Piper appearing on GMTV plugging his new single "I've been lookin for you" (the whole thing is just bizarre): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fnVeLUjeHgQ&feature=related


3. The Rock and Steve Austin singing a duet ( which I think was the go home angle for the Survivor Series ppv of WWE versus The Alliance!): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W_5uMVAJJt4

I saw it first as an extra on The Goonies DVD. The girl I was watching it with had no idea why my eyes just lit up!

There's the ones from the WWF albums too, like Koko B Ware's Piledriver, featuring the biggest wrestlers as builders: http://ie.youtube.com/watch?v=Xci6AZnPADw

Slick with Jive Soul Bro: http://ie.youtube.com/watch?v=x2iIYibSa-g

All the wrestlers on this one, and Meat Loaf on drums!: http://ie.youtube.com/watch?v=sNxDllyUCdE

I just saw this one for the first time and I have no idea what to say! Mean Gene and a few others in this: http://ie.youtube.com/watch?v=whbo61ckxNs

West Texas Rednecks - 'Rap Is Crap' This was suppose to be a heel song for a heel group, the West Texas Rednecks, in WCW. However, it git insanely over at the time. Who'd have thought trying to push black 'bling bling' rappers in the deep south would have such an effect;)

You just topped yourself. Unbelievable.


If anyone has a link to the single WWE released around 1992 called "Wrestlemania" featuring amongst others Bret Hart and the Big Bossman you'll make my day.

Man, you will be doing good to find them. The album wasn't intended for release in the US so videos stateside will be rare. If you dig them up, let us know

Yeah it's unlikely that anybody will be able to find the Wresltmemania song they released over in the UK. Since Fozzy came up with some gems though, I'm not totally giving up hope of somebody finding it.

Just on that album, Hacksaw Jim Duggan had a minor hit from it, which was him going Hoooooooo for the most of the song. Man, he was the best. Which gives me an idea.....

Man that must be the most used tune in the wwe. It was also used as the theme for Mania 13+14 and Linda McMahon's entrance music.

Without cheating and looking at the Youtube comments, anyone know who had a top 5 hit with this number in the U.S.?

Jimmy Hart. I think he's mentions it in every interview he does!

Oh jesus.......

Yeah Jimmy Hart is correct. He seems to be a t bit of a music man, penning both Real American and the nWo theme, not to mention countless WCW themes.

Nothing can beat the stuff from The Rock concerts!

Oh how I'd love for there to be a Rock Concert III! Won't happen but still. Best one of recent times has been this effort by Santino:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qmePgEV7CXg

And this effort by Austin was so great that even Vince started laughing...
