callaway92

Disagree..No.1 should obviously be Edge with the smoke etc..No.2 should be Goldberg...Taker shouldnt be on this list because his entrance is rubbish

rovert

Where the **** is Steve Austin's music? The glass breaking alone should be at in the top 2.

Agree/Disagree?

Hard to agree or disagree... every single one of them has had more than one theme tune...



* * *

After
skimming through WWE's article, it seems they are deaf. They picked Kane's second theme (Out of the fire) over his Slow Chemical theme?

Yeah.. I'm sure all 1% of wrestling fans will agree with that.

Then they actually pick "Edge's older themes". Thats right.. not a particular Edge theme, but all of his older ones, which in reality, are nowhere near as good as his current theme.


I'm not impressed.

My personal top ten themes would be (no particular order. Kane and H would probably be at the top if they were in order though):


Slow Chemical - Kane - Finger Eleven
http://ie.youtube.com/watch?v=xLrkKW1jcRk

The Game - Triple H - Motorhead
http://ie.youtube.com/watch?v=9MUMRIbTlxg


Medal (Revisited) - Kurt Angle - Jim Johnston (His ECW Theme)
http://ie.youtube.com/watch?v=72bqQRRNwS4&feature=related


Biscuits & Gravy - Jesse And Festus - Jim Johnston
http://ie.youtube.com/watch?v=ER6THbfVg3Y


I walk Alone - Batista - Saliva
http://ie.youtube.com/watch?v=Y1iMuht_Eik


I'm Comin' - MVP - Silkk Tha Shocker
http://ie.youtube.com/watch?v=TcZ2gMkTzrc


This Fire Burns - CM Punk - Killswitch Engage
http://ie.youtube.com/watch?v=4g0oyqzAbV4


Diesel Blues - Diesel - Jim Johnston
http://ie.youtube.com/watch?v=uPRxTufdDrY


It's Conquered (Production Title apparently) - The Rock - Jim Johnston (His "Hollywood" theme)
http://ie.youtube.com/watch?v=RgkD0KK2rbU&feature=related


Demolition Daze - Demolition - Demolition
http://ie.youtube.com/watch?v=4aS1Xfb6ckE

Well I agree. Undertaker's current theme (if thats the one they're talking about) certainly wouldn't get anywhere near my top 2 thats for sure.

Do yourself a favour and read the webiste before you reply. They do indicate what theme they are referring to, you know.

Bubs101

There are a lot of better themes missing in their list and Rovert is right, having Austin at 16 is a bit of a joke. Top 5 at least. D-X should also be in the top 5. Roddy Piper's music was balls. There's no Tazz, no Kurt, and NO FLAIR???. Space Oddessy is a great song. No Pomp and Circumstance. Just because he did Stephanie doesn't make the song ****e. They have Vince McMahon in there but no Shane Mcmahon. Poor Choice. No Evolution? Would have liked to see Al Snow for comedy value. Rougeau Brothers deserve a place

There are definitely a few notable oversights there.

Flairs theme for sure.

Macho Mans too.

Always liked Brocks theme too.

ShawnRaven

As much as it kills me to say this but...
Where the f*ck is Bret Hart's theme from 1994-1997? That screeching intro caused a lot more pops than Crippletakers "dong!" in it's day!

VR!

Not true. Certionly not by repuation or by design: Pop=cresendo= the "dong" in Undertakers music.

RAMPAGE1

Road Warriors
Ultimate Warrior
Triple h Mania 22 entrance
Evolution
Jeff Hardy
Ricky Steamboat
Jake the snake Roberts
Austin
Shane o Mac
Brock Lesnar
Akeem With Slick (for the older guys)

Jive Soul Bro was awesome. I still think Ernest Miller would have gotten a lot more over in 2004, had he used that theme tune.

Ricky Ortiz used it in OVW.

Could there be a chance of some confusion here?

Are they on about WWE Entrance THEMES, or the actual wrestler making theyre way to the ring?

Either way, its obviously the politics within that decided that list.

Ok i apologise i didnt read that fully and it turns out to be the themes... my bad

mehfesto2

Austin for me.
The glass-break was brilliant.

Infact the Attitude era had some great ones. Thr Rock's as cheesy as it was was brilliant in it's own way. Same with Angle's. And Y2J's old one.

Flair's theme doesn't belogn to WWE, so thats probably why its not there.

This debate will go on for ages, its impossible to try and locate a "Top 10" or even a number one spot when it comes to themes, i think this was a stupid poll thingy by WWE.
To me it makes much more sense to have an entrance ranking in the mix of theme, pyro, the way the wrestler makes his way to/into the ring, what is done in it, how he plays his character with the fans, the whole lot.

THAT would've made for a better top 25!

I agree that it would probably be easier to make a top 25, but it wouldn't be just, as some people's entrances are suited perfectly to them.


For example the way benjamin walks to the ring with his confident kinda hover down the ramp, his great facial expressions, his awesome theme music and great titantron movie.. its all great and perfectly suited. But that would all be instantly over-shadowed by a bit of pyro.


Maybe a top 25 'most entertaining' or 'most elaborate' entrances?

I wonder if the shoe were on the other foot would Trevor let it go and say no worries.Me thinks not.Good for you KKV.Nice to see a bit of maturity here for a change.

Give me an example of me not letting something go? I admitted that I was wrong to KKV and KKV accepted that, unlike you we've both moved on and let something go. Dont be starting trouble as I will report you. Either back up what you say or GTFO. You are not adding anything to this thread.

A shoot that missed, actually. Anyway he is saying Im the person who doesnt let things go yet he drags up an issue which the other two parties have moved on from. Way to make a case there.

It would be nice if we could go back on topic. I take the list of those themes most identifed with WWE (Wrestling, really.)

michael.etc...

Okay, to go back on topic- like all of the "lists" that the WWE produce, they really have to be taken with a pinch of salt. I certainly disagree with some of their choices (rock so high? Austin so low?) Comic Book Guy is right though- it's easier to effectively determine an overall entrance, rather than just the song.

Personally, i'd have

1.Undertaker
2. Hogan
3. Austin.
4. DX
5. Ultimate Warrior
6. Triple H
7. Macho Man
8. Shawn Michaels
9.Papa Shango
10.Bret Hart

Or summit like that.

An honourable mention from the current batch must go to Santino's, its magnificent.

But it is hardly the most recognisable theme in WWE history, is it? The man on the street is hardly going to recognise that and say that is from the wrestling, are they?

Ive always liked Cactus Jacks music http://ie.youtube.com/watch?v=FTfcMQuF89U&feature=related
One of my favourite tunes.
Billy Gunn always had some good tunes:

Assman is funny, not sure it should make a top 25 list, his theme as "The One" was very forgettable, although I think he still used it for a while when him and Chuck started so it would have been amusing in that context but I think they'd switched to "You look so good to me" by the time the real funny gay innuendoes started.
But on the subject of Gunn, not sure if the Outlaw's theme been mentioned yet? now that should have made the top 25 - "Oh, you didn’t know?", one of the most recognisable themes of the Attitude era in my view, arguably more so than the Nation's which is included on that list.

Another one that was hilarious, but admittedly wouldn’t be remembered enough to make the top 25 is Christian's from when he split up with Edge - "Christian!". I thought it was good anyway.

And again, not one of the best of all time, but speaking of themes being recognisable in the first few seconds like Austin's glass breaking or Undertaker's bong, you knew Vader's when it hit - "It's time, it's time". Maybe the best thing about his WWE run...

Assman is disturbing - to paraphrase it.
"So many asses, so little time, so many surprises that creep up from behind!"

I still say they missed the boat when they teamed him with Bob Holly a few years back. Butt Plugg would have really gotten over as a team name i reckon!
