I know this has been done before but I think it's one of those topics that's always fun to talk about. Do any of your wrestlers have entrance music?
For Killer Queen I of course think "Killer Queen" by Queen. I know it's not really a good song to use but when it fits that well I have to.
The other one is another Queen song. For Star Warrior it's "Flash Gordon" but it would have Star Warrior in place of the corresponding parts.
Any others?

I used Savatage by the Beastie Boys as the entrance for Tanck and The Betrayer.
Haven't really picked out any music for anyone else yet.
Once I do, I plan on posting everyone's music in my fed thread.

I've never picked it bcause for a fed 100 years inthe future, it's unlikely more than a couple will use music from nowadays.

^^^^ That's actually the exact reason I don't pick it either. It would be like the stars of today all coming out to music from the 1920's.

Well, it's still fun to do. I had lots of entrance music back in the day. You wouldn't believe how well the Miami Vice theme worked for a face Gladiator team.

In my New Beginning fed, I don't even use terms like months and weeks because each planet would have it's own definition of what a month or week is. I assume that there is some kind of "Galactic Calendar" that applies to all planets. So instead of months, I use "Segments". It keeps the futuristic feel of the game to me. |

Well I can't say that I go that far. I often catch myself having characters say things like "I'm the best in the WORLD today!" or like "I've wrestled all over the planet!". That's usually easy to fix, just swap out planet or world with Universe or Galaxy. But yeah, I generally assume that in the future the galaxy uses our rules from today....days, months, years, our holidays etc etc.

The time element can be solved by using Star Trek's stardate system...like today is stardate 20073.24

I always have used Black Sabbath's Iron Man (which the Road Warriors originally used) as the theme for all Gladiators.

Yes, and I'd be embarrassed for anyone to hear it today.  |

Grunge's bio specifically stated that he used rock music from our time.

Well I can imagine it happening occasionally although it's a bit hard to accept.

It says on the New Beginning boolet that Stars & Stripes come out to Lynyrd Skynnard. So I give them "Gimme Back My Bullets." It's a shame that in my fed they can't Man Up like the Briscoes.

"Sirius"! 5 years after my brother stopped watching wrestling i said to him, "why are the Bulls using Ricky "The Dragon" Steamboat's music"? I think he rolled his eyes or something.

Uh.......no. The rest, okay. But that one, uh-uh. GWF Creative actually hit a real home run with that one. After an initial struggle...the Lord Nexus Q Rating went through the roof through the turn around success of the 'Air Nexus' marketing campaign. This included a mix of 'feel good' PSA spots on our TV (visuals of LN signing autographs, mentoring children, working the food lines during holidays...and match highlights with Sweet Georgia Brown playing in the background, etc). Combine that with the 'marketing' of public appearances at schools, churches and civic groups...and 'grass roots' spotlight events like the local police vs GWF Heroes in a charity basketball game....a Nexus became a niche asset to our organization. Sadly my GWF struggled financially in the early stages of 2087...and had to run in small venues in conjunction with 'fund raiser' type events...but such was life for my small start up venture. Some other early themes: Vanity: Wham 'Wake Me Up Before You Go Go'Mutant: 'The Munsters Theme'Creeper: 'The Addams Family Theme'
LWPD (Fun Fact: in my GWF the original Genghis Khan persona was an utter failure...the mute 'hostile nomad Mongolian' gimmick could only go so far and failed to translate with the audience...he was eventually taken off the road and 'repackaged' as the caustic yet comedic Don Rickles like 'Family Man')
He screamed leave me alone
I'm a family man
And my bark is much worse than my bite
He said leave me alone
I'm a family man
But if you push me too far, I just might
