Top 10 Wrestlers Themes Songs You Don't Want To Hear

It's the spooky season and I felt like giving you a spooky silly treat today with my top 10 wrestlers theme songs you don't want to hear while you are in the ring.

So imagine the scenario, here you are inside a wrestling ring awaiting your mysterious opponent to show up and then one of the following songs play. You are in for an ass kicking!

10: Chyna

She's the 9th Wonder Of The World, she put the men and women in their places and happily beat up any man or woman who stood in her way. R.I.P. Chyna we miss you.

9: Aleister Black (NXT theme)

Although Malakai Black is more scary to look at, just imagine how unnerving it must be to see this heavily tatted man rise up like a vampire or something out of the living dead with this heavy metal track playing him to the ring! He's a total badass, and he will kick your head off and then raise your body back up by his mere feet and then kick your head off your shoulders again.

8: Awesome Kong

A force to not be messed with. She is one tough lady and would kick anyone's ass in a heartbeat!

7: Samoa Joe (2007 TNA Theme)

Samoa Joe is an absolute killer! Especially in his TNA run. People worldwide chant "Joe's Gonna Kill You!" for good reasons.

6: Brock Lesnar

Of course anytime this hits you got to be shitting yourself if you are going up against The Beast Incarnate! He's a stone-cold brawler, a killer warrior. He will fuck you up and make you wish you had never even imagined getting into the ring. Enjoy your trip to Suplex city bitch!

5: Abyss (2007 TNA theme)

The Monster Abyss is a whole lotta bad and a whole lotta monster. Unpredictable and powerful and more hardcore and crazier than anyone else here on this list. The Monster Abyss brings destruction everywhere he goes.

4: "The Demon" Finn Balor

Finn Balor is tough without his alter ego but when he snaps and unleashes The Demon well no one is safe.

3: The Fiend

Unpredictable, unnerving, strange, powerful and scary these are the words to describe the monster that is The Fiend. Just when you think Bray Wyatt could not get any more crazy and scary, you get him turned up into 11!

2: Kane (1997-1999)

Bah gawd, that's gotta be, THAT'S GOTTA BE KANE! The Big Red Machine era to be precise was the most monstrous he was.

1: The Undertaker

Of course this legend has to be number 1. He can appear anywhere anytime just listen and beware of the gong!

This has been a fun list, I hope you liked it. 

Any suggestions please hit me up! :)

Top 10 AEW Entrance Theme Songs

Hey, what's up?

It's been a while since I did a top 10 so why not return and return to the blog with a top 10 all new and fresh out of my mind and today's digestive topic is AEW Wrestling Entrance themes. 

So I'm going to be listing my top 10 faves. I hope you like this list and the songs on them and if you have any other suggestions please comment or tag me on twitter @1stmetalgod. 

10: Arrival - Sting

New to the brand but a legend in the ring Sting shocked the world a few months back by appearing in AEW. Of course with Sting here we can't help but to always shout at the arrival of the immortal one with a loud "WOO!" and say "IT'S STIIIIIIIIIIINGG!!!!!!!". 

9: Everybody Dies - Lance Archer

So destructive and unstable just like the murderhawk, i really like his theme. 

8: Join Us - Dark Order

Cult like and dark and intimidating as are the team of the Dark Order but also the theme is very badass heavy and catchy now JOIN US.

7: Juicy - Orange Cassidy

Far out man it's the laid back freshly squeezed one himself. I love Orange he is so funny but also he is such a great talent. 

6: Battle Cry - Kenny Omega

Video game themed suiting Kenny's likes and ofcourse when it kicks in with that demonic voice and speedy instrumentals it's so good and really makes him stand out. 

5: Kingdom - Cody Rhodes

Cody's theme is iconic with AEW and himself and it's so catchy, fits him and its a great bop. 

4: Tarzan Boy - Jungle Boy

Tony Khan the mad legend himself surprised us and Jungle Boy with this hell of a Christmas present a 80s classic and one which is so fun it represents Jungle Boy to a tee for so many obvious reasons, belter of a song and a hell of a competitor is Jungle Boy. 

3: I Fell - Darby Allin

Slow, unsteady, calm but collected and very impactful, Darby is such an enigma he's grown to become one of my favourite wrestlers since AEW has come about. 

2: Unscripted Violence - Jon Moxley

Plug in and play but beware for here comes the MOX, talk about making yourself known with such a badass unrelating song to walk out to, perfect edgy fit for the maniac Jon is. 

1: Judas - Chris Jericho

You can't help but to sing along and love this one. It's such a great song and so fitting for Jericho and this is my number one fave pick for my list.

Thanks for reading, that's my list, come back again for more blogs and top 10s and all other assorted bits and bobs to make you laugh and make you think. 

Top 10 Wrestlemania Entrances!

It's that time of the year WRESTLEMANIA BAYBEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! Although Mania has been and gone let's reflect upon some of the best entrances. Let's list up all the best entrances i have seen up to now from the grandest stage of them all!

RULES: 1 ENTRANCE PER MANIA AND 1 ENTRANCE PER WRESTLER! So this will be tough as HHH has so many great entrances and some others but here we go.

10: Shawn Michaels - WM 12

This was so unique and cool HBK jut descending from atop the arena it's one that stands out among the legendary entrances we have seen over the 35 years of mania. 

9: Bray Wyatt - WM 30

Who do you voodoo when Bray Wyatt enters the arena with weird creepy voodo dancing followed by a band of plague doctors playing his theme song. Certainly unique and a fave of mine for the creepy character. 

8: Shinsuke Nakamura - WM 34

A most glorious entrance here which is metal as fuck with Nita Strauss performing aswell as a butt load of violinists to play out The King Of Strong Style himself as the crowd also chants along with the song simply epic. 

7: The New Day -  WM 32

Supersized booty-o's containing saiyan armoured new day? Well it's on this list it's pretty darn sweet to see DBZ and WWE together and i love it, it's something else. 

6: The Undertaker - WM 19

Keep the list on rollin baybeeeeee with American Badass himself being played out by Bizkit. 

5: Stone Cold Steve Austin - WM 13

It's Austin's turn to enter the list, the words "Austin 3:16" appeared on the screen before smashing in sync with his legendary entrance theme. What happened next was arguably the greatest match in WWE history, granting his swagger even more significance.

4: Rusev - WM 31

He came out on a tank played by the national anthem of russia so you know it's a good one!

3: CM Punk - WM29

The final WrestleMania appearance for CM Punk, who would be gone from the company by the time the PPV's next installment rolled into town, and what a way to go out as he took on The Undertaker. Arguably the WWE's standout performer in the two years heading into WrestleMania 29. Living Colour, blasted its most notable song, "Cult of Personality," to the live crowd in New Jersey as it showed appreciation for Punk's suitable entrance music. 

2: Hardy Boyz - WM 33

All was normal in this mania until New Day came and said there's going to be another team in the tag match and it was all so suspenseful until the Hardy's music hit and the place and myself errupted in sheer joy to see an old fave tag team back in the WWE on the grandest stage of them all.  

1: Triple H - WM 21

Metal and epic as fuck HHH has the best entrances no doubt about it on the grandest stage of them all he is the grandest of them all and this time MotorHead played him out was epic. Emerging in the middle of the band whilst they played HHH rose up, spat some water out and went to work.

And that's my list, did any of your faves make the cut? If not comment and let me know your faves.

My Top 10 Wrestling Entrance Themes (I'd use if i was a pro wrestler)

So for a bit of fun being as I love both wrestling and music, what 10 song's would I use as an entrance theme? Ever wondered what you'd walk out to?

I'll attempt to name 10 and try to deliver what i'd do for the entrance and if i'd be a good guy with that theme or a bad guy. It's going to be a short but fun list. I want you to do your own too! So let's have some fun and let's play this game! One song per band/artist too just to make thing's have more variety :D

10: Scum Of The Earth - Rob Zombie. 

So i'd be a bad guy with this and just in your face heel but disrespectful to and spit at the floor near people and do a bit of headbanging when i get in the ring. You want an autograph sure i'll sign a picture for ohh no I've torn it up what a shame you lose kid. "Hey, I'm breathing, Hey, I'm bleeding, Hey, I'm screaming, Scum of the earth, COME ON!"

9: Up Around The Bend - CCR. 

Face i'd be a fun time guy, dancing singing interacting with audience dancing with them, moving to the groovin around the bend you know. "Come on the risin' wind, We're goin' up around the bend"

8: Walk - Pantera. 

I'd be a tweener i could use this as both heel and face just a simple badass stroll to the ring. You can't be something you're not, Be yourself by yourself, Stay away from me, A lesson learned in life, Known from the dawn of time".

7: I Will Be Heard - Hatebreed. 

Heel disrespectful in your face aggression entrance. "NOW IS THE TIME, FOR ME TO RISE TO MY FEET!"

6: Square Hammer - Ghost. 

Darkness with lights flashing green as the music kicks in i arrive onto the stage corpse face painted and in long black flowing robes, walking holding an urn to the ring and which when i take a lid off it projects a demon in the middle of the ring as i take off my robe and then i put the urn lid back on and all lights are on as normal and i am ready to go. "Still you call on me for entrance to the shrine
Hammering the nails, Into a sacred coffin, You call on me for powers clandestine".

5: Personal Jesus - Depeche Mode

A pastor like character who is a heel he believes he is holier than thou. "Reach out and touch faith!"

4: It's My Life - Bon Jovi. 

Entrance similar to Jericho's but with led jacket saying its my life scrolled across the back and on my shades. Face entrance happy party have fun. "Luck ain't enough, You've got to make your own breaks, It's my life, And it's now or never".

3: Boom Boom Boom Boom - Vengaboys
Proper face happy dance time to get a great fun atmosphere going with the crowd with a classic slice of cheesy partying tune.

2: Indestructible - Disturbed. 

Sirens blare the lights blaze flashing blue as a spot light goes all around the arena and then it kicks in as i exit through the curtain with a hood over my head. Slowly looking round making my way to the ring. A bit of a tweener this one too. When i get to the ring ropes i pull of my hood revealing my face and get in the ring flexing when it says "indestructible master of war".

1: Wherever I May Roam - Metallica.

Start in darkness with smoke covering and soon as we hit the drums the lights flicker to the beat and we get to the 50 second mark of the song and out i come beating my chest to the beat. I'd encourage others to join in and be a face with this song, singing this song as i walk to the ring and around the ring as the lyrics echo "call me what you will" i will be in the ring and the lights will all light up and the smoke will stop.

So that's my list and i'm sticking to it, for now at least, this has been fun, love to hear yours :D

Top 20 Wrestling Theme Songs Of All Time!

Alri? James Davie my good friend asked me this question and I intend to answer it and I will post it all here with links and from 20 to 1. 

There's a lot of awesome themes out there and my mind will change time to time but wish me luck and let's hope your faves shows up here too. :) 

I'll throw in a mixed bag. 

20: Abyss - Down In The Catacombs
First time I seen TNA, I saw Icons, High flyers and A MONSTER! *Click* DOOMSDAY! Abyss seems to have one of the few themes in TNA history that you can recognise within a couple of seconds . It’s not an overly long song, as it loops on itself after about 75 seconds in, but those 75 seconds take you on a journey of mystery and horror!

19: Sting TNA - Slay Me!
TNA gave him his best song i feel. Truly iconic and the guitar instrumental is truly epic! One of very few easily recognisable theme songs.

18: GRADO - Like A Prayer
Guilty pleasure brilliantly funny fan favourite wrestler.

17: Charlotte Flair - Recognition
I love Charlotte's flair's song, it's a metal version of Ric flair's theme with added flair if i do say so myself.

16: Hardy Boyz - Loaded
Classic tune, everytime it played you cant help but do the hardy's salute and thrust your hips while smacking tornado's.

15: Christian - At Last
I only few years ago rediscovered this golden gem treat and i love it and used to play it constantly on repeat.

14: Beer Money - Take A Fall
BEER! MONEY! What a team, what a song, when it comes to tag teams many come to mind but among first thought of making this list, this team came second for the first team came at 16. I love this one.

13: Cena (Word Life & Time Is Now)
John Cena is the biggest star the WWE has had since The Rock and is arguably one of the greatest of all time. But Cena’s music didn’t gain widespread recognition until it got memed into the social universe, when “Unexpected Cena” became the viral hit of the summer in 2015 and has since become the Kurt Angle You Suck Chanted song of the modern era. JOHN CENA SUUUCKS, JOHN CENA SUCKS etc etc. Cena's word life i personally love and know most of it off by top of my head and it gets stuck in my brain most days it's brilliant and i miss word life cena.

12: Kurt Angle (WWE&TNA themes)
From the Angle chanted of the modern era to this one well two. Angle's Medal theme is so awesome and thanks to Edge getting the fans to chant YOU SUCK it became iconic and also made Kurt i'd say. Kurt's tna theme gold medalist is epic, it's almost terminator like start to then kicking off with a great rap it's brilliant and i love it. 

11: Kane - Burned
First time hearing this i was like what in the world and then BOOM PYRO and the drums pound and the guitar screetches and its just the ultimate big red badass piece of machinery to go along with the big red machine himself because THAT'S GOTTA BE KANE!

10: Aleister Black - Root Of All Evil
Upon first listen i was hooked on the song and on Black. The track truly brings an “end of times” mindset with it, which speaks volumes alongside Black’s silent death stare. Code Orange and Incendiary, the New York hardcore band who recorded the song, played Black’s introduction together live at Barclay’s Center last August in what was probably the best live-intro entrance the WWE has ever put together.

9: CM Punk - Cult Of Personality
I have always loved this song and when Punk left wwe came back and this started to play I was like what who the hell is coming out to this and then he came through the curtain and the crowd and myself just jumped out of our seats losing our minds. Obviously i was not there in person when it happened just saying i was at home like "OMG!". 

8: The Demon Finn Balor - Catch Your Breath
Finn is a complex character but what a talent just a shame Vinnie won't push him for a title anymore since he had an injury when he won the big one. This song is epic!

7: Hulk Hogan - Real American
He is a real american and he fights for the rights of every man, catchy, classic and iconic and easily one of the most recognisable theme songs in history.

6: Shinsuke Nakumura - The Rising Sun
I dislike his current theme but his old one is classic it represented the strong style of his hard hitting past whilst embracing the rockstar that he is. His entrance music, while still powerful, has a sense of grace and elegance. With violins winding around a light EDM drum beat, crowds often sing the song’s main riffs in unison, even during the middle of Nakamura’s match. In the modern era of pro wrestling, where a crowd’s enthusiasm often dictates which wrestlers the WWE gives more attention to, theme songs like this are a win-win for everyone involved. And Nakamura’s is an instant classic.

5: Bobby Roode - Glorious Domination
Sometimes, all it takes is a really well-crafted theme song that can make a star. In Bobby Roode’s case, his entrance music shot him to the moon. In less than five months, Roode went from debuting winning the NXT Championship, due in large part to his insanely popular theme song which crowds immediately took to singing along with while he walked to the ring. It’s GLORIOUS! 

4: Undertaker - R.I.P.
 Just like HH and many other wrestlers on this list this is one of the best, classic and iconic songs but Taker has always had stand out themes. Taker’s smoggy, bone-chilling entrance is almost numbing while he slowly emerges to the tune of church organs and lightning cracks. It’s often said an entrance can make or break a wrestler, and The Undertaker’s unsettling theme is in large part why his introduction is the most thrilling and iconic of all time.

3: The Rock - Electrifying
I always wonder what he is cooking but perhaps it's just Jabroni Pie he does like his pies after all but anyway. Simply electrifying what else is there to say? 

2: Stone Cold - I Won't Do What You Tell Me!
Sorry just smashed a glass and hang on, there's a knock at my door......apologies for up and leaving you all suddenly a weird coincidence the minute i smash glass that Stone Cold E.T. shows up with Shark Boy. It was nice to see the two again but anyway if you want me to talk about STEVE AUSTIN gimmie a HELL YEAH! That's what i thought,  That “OH SHIT, IT’S ABOUT TO GET REAL” sound meant you were about to see someone’s ass get kicked by The Rattlesnake himself. Austin, the main protagonist of pro wrestling’s most celebrated era, was a mean-mugging, shit-talking mad man who routinely threw wrenches into ultra-bad guy Vince McMahon’s evil plans and was always there to save the day. Like a modern-day bat signal, Austin’s entrance music didn’t just mean you were about to see a serious brawl, it meant everything was going to be alright.

1: HHH- The Game!
It’s not hard to point out that Triple H’s theme (played by Motörhead) is one of the best there is. But Lemmy’s voice gave an already credible star a boost into hall-of-fame presentation. With the recognizable legend’s voice at the helm, Triple H’s theme translated one thing: that he was an unparalleled star. As soon as his music hits, Triple H (also known as “The Game”) goes from a character who could hold championships to “final boss” type stuff. It was tough to put any as number 1 on my list but this stood out as number one when i was asked to name my list so i just had to put it here it's epic and it's all about the game and how you play it.

Aaaaaaaaand that's all folks, hope you enjoyed, let me know your faves and come back soon for more lists among other things.
