So, which of these entrance music's was the best?
I have always been partial to Ultimate Warrior's. That was such a distinct song. A close second to DX and the original nWo theme.
Also really like Demolition's.

Back in Kayfabe days...and remember hearing Cornette saying this...when you heard those first chords of "Iron Man" hitting the speakers, it'd give you chills down your spine.

WHAT ! No Ted Dibiase "Money $ Money $ Money" with classic lines like You will be bought / Everyone has a price and that great laugh . By far the best , if you ask me . Also in there Ultimate Warrior / Triple H "The Game" \ Demolition & Honky Tonk Man

It's a tough choice, but I'd have to go with Demolition. I was doing a karaoke gig at a bar over the winter and just for kicks, in bewteen singers I popped that in and about 3 or 4 guys came up and asked "Hey, is that the Demolition song?" That sparked some wrestling conversation about the good ol' days for the rest of the night. It was pretty cool.
I liked the music video that went along with it too.

Triple H's entrance song is the cleanest ever! After that, I would say the nWo theme, HBK's song and "Badstreet USA."

You got to go with the man...Ric Flair when you here it you know who it is...after that nWo wolfpac is great for Wolf...and Iron man for the Warriors...don't forget Freebird....or Modern Day Warrior Kerry Von Erich!!!

Such a tough choice. I went with the Demos, because they had the best entrance when I was a kid and were always my favorite. Right after them I would say HHH, who has the best overall entrance ever. I wasn't a fan of wrestling in the hey day of DX and nWo, otherwise I might give them more credit.

I voted for HHH, although most of those listed had good entrance music. And although I hate him, I love Edge's entrance music.

I'm a freak - I'm going with Honky Tonk Man. It has an instantly recognizable opening riff, and it suits the wrestler to a T. Plus I danced to it at Galacticon 2005 - if you can call it that - while tearing up the Valentine poster. It's a fun song that makes me giggle like a hyena when I hear it, so I'm voting for it.

I went with Ric Flair. His music is just absolutely perfect for the greatest pro-wrestler of all time. It is so epic feeling and just builds and builds until he steps into that ring. Iron Man for the Road Warriors was also great. I actually really like John Cena's music for a more modern choice. It is something where you know who is coming down immediately. It also just sounds so much crisper and louder for him (maybe it actually is). Pair that song with the smoke and the strobe and you have a superstar entrance.

Demolition.
The entrance music of the original evil Doink (1992-1993) was good, too.

call me cliche, but growing up with Hulk Hogan in the 80s, I can't believe no one else thought "Real American" should be up there. I mean, with the obvious exception of "Iron Man," Hogan's song is the only song I occasionally hear played at bars and parties. And it's passable as a real song instead of a repetitive music track like most entrance themes are (which is why I've never enjoyed WWF music CD's and never understood why my brother kept getting them.)
On a side note, what about Billy Gunn's AssMan as one of the worst themes ever? It's so awful, especially that line where it goes something like "I love to stick 'em, I love to pick 'em..." Umm, Billy Gunn, you should keep that thought to yourself.

I'm sure that's been played at many a party. Granted that was already a released song several years before Hogan used it.

Hollywood's Voodoo Child is great. I forgot about that one. When I hear Voodoo Child I automatically go back to 1997.

What? No American Males or X-factor theme music? Darn, I guess I'll have to go with "Fanfare for the common man". How can you not think of Flair when you hear that music. Or a protohuman throwing a bone that becomes a space station.

Hogan's Voodoo Child is my favorite as well.

I'm such a Y2J mark, and when he had the whole countdown, then explosion, then his song "Break the Walls Down," it was just awesome. They're all really good choices, but Y2J's has my vote.

I voted Flair but I loved Demolition's as well. Pomp and Circumstance was always really fun too.
