ChrisMWaters 0 Report post Posted October 13, 2006 OK, this just is some random thinking off the top of my head... Let's say that the new ECW was going by old ECW stuff, and was allowed to use real songs for the entrances? What would be some real songs out today for some of the "new breed" ECW wrestlers. For example: Kevin Thorn: something by Rob Zombie I think would fit Test: Something from Motley Crue, since he was their bodyguard/bouncer Kelly Kelly: "Buttons", as she used to use in her Exposes. CM Punk: Either his current theme or (and possibly the more popular option) go back to one of his ROH themes. That's all I got for now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Art Sandusky 0 Report post Posted October 13, 2006 Don't change Thorn's music. That's my only suggestion regarding theme songs. CM Punk's is pretty cool when they let it get to the chorus too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Vince has proven that you don't need Enter Sandman to get him over. I never thought that it would work, but generic music has gotten Sandman over just as much. When the crappy music hits the fans know who it is and go crazy. Never thought it would happen, but it has. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Toxxic 0 Report post Posted October 13, 2006 Put Matt Hardy there and have him come out to 'Twist of Fate' by Pennywise. Punk should always come out to 'La Miseria Catara', there can be no arguments against that. Also, Kevin Thorn should come out to 'Vampira' by Devin Townsend.

Art Sandusky 0 Report post Posted October 13, 2006 I can argue using that as Punk's theme. WWE TV is bad enough, I don't need a minute of staring at an entranceway while waiting for him to come out also. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BorneAgain 0 Report post Posted October 13, 2006 If they could get the rights, I would prefer to see Sandman to come out to the Richard Cheese version of "Enter Sandman" just to see the crowd reaction, especially if there in a place like Philly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hawk 34 0 Report post Posted October 13, 2006 I agree that Punk doesn't need Miseria Cantare, it was a fantastic intro in ROH because it gave a epic feeling and Punk's matches in ROH were built in that regard. Punk was THE man in ROH, when he used it first, it was just to show his ego but at the end during his super-duper mega babyface period, it was designed to make Punk look more important. It's not a good TV intro and they'd never let him have a 90 second pause before coming out. I wouldn't be opposed to bringing it back for a huge event like D2D or WM23, if he's given an important match and use that intro to make him look even better but it's not needed right now as his current theme is good and the crowd has already linked it with Punk. While I'm glad he has kept most of his original character traits intact, the music isn't needed as much. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Toxxic 0 Report post Posted October 15, 2006 Catchy in an annoying way. I mean Elastica are far from great anyway, but 'Connection' just seems a truly bizarre track to have involved with a wrestling show in any way. It'd be like having *thinks* Kasabian or something, for a modern comparison - naff British indie band with no connection with it at all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

UseTheSledgehammerUh 0 Report post Posted October 16, 2006 Connection by Elastica was used (very briefly, they used another Elastica song more often) for the "live event" commercials for upcoming shows back in 95-97ish. It was basically a page that read: "THIS SATURDAY AT THE ARENA!" "TAZ Vs. PAUL VARLENS" (example) then a T-Shirt ad, then another venue, etc. It's an awful song that was used for Pepsi and other crap, I believe. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Toxxic 0 Report post Posted October 17, 2006 Whoah, more than one Elastica song was used? What the hell, did Heyman have a hard-on for Justine Frischmann or something? I mean, of all the 90s British music they could have used if they decided they wanted to use British music, they chose ELASTICA? TWICE? ...as you can tell, I'm still in shock over this.
