Clarification on WWE entrance themes
In this morning’s post about WWE’s Voices CD, I mentioned that I was disappointed that the entrance themes for Edge, The Brian Kendrick, Matt Hardy and Mickie James were not on this disc or any other WWE compilation “to the best of my knowledge.”
My thanks to all of you who smartened me up on where to find some of these songs. Of the four themes, only one actually is on a WWE CD – Hardy’s theme is on Forceable Entry. James’ entrance music isn’t on a CD but is part of WWE The Music Vol. 7, which is available exclusively on iTunes.
Edge’s entrance theme is one of the few that was not written and produced by WWE. The song, titled “Metalingus,” is performed by Alter Bridge and is on their CD, One Day Remains. I was aware of that, but my point was that it is not on any WWE CDs. My guess is that it is a copyright issue.
Kendrick’s music is nowhere to be found on CD.
Now that we’ve cleared that up, I’m going to go listen to the Ultimate Warrior’s theme, have a few cups of coffee and paint the house, mow the lawn and clean up the basement – all before dinner.

I wonder if you can overhead press the ladder before you paint the house.

Being a huge Rage fan, I must admit that I really like Jack Swagger's entrance song.
I'm kind of conflicted though. The song is performed by a RATM cover band called "Age Against the Machine". While I have no problem with cover bands, I take some issue with a band mimicking another band's sound to make NEW music.
I guess there is irony in there somewhere, you know, wrestling -- not quite the real thing -- using a song that's, well, not quite the real thing.
