Alexa Bliss is perfect.

Perfect.

Just perfect.

Ms. Perfect.

See, this is what I mean. All these new NXT Divas each bring something different. Beautiful bit aren't the plain casting couchers that People Power sought. Gonna miss them when they are ruined by main roster. Though Kendall looks like a character from Edd, ed and Eddy. Her face so flat....

It's ok. Let them use it.

Price of fame. Unlike CM Punk, we just accept it and share in its success.

I wonder if someone with a 10+ year career has had only one song. Goldust has had two. Hulk Hogan has had three. Ric Flair has had two because of Evolution. Kurt Angle quit after six or seven years but had one song for those years. The Rock had two. Stone Cold had at least two.

I guess it depends on what you consider a new theme. Goldust has had had many variations on his song over the years. Austin's version went through a lot of changes over the years. Flair had 3, because he had the knock off in his first WWF run. Kurt also had a remixed theme before he left. Rock had like 700 versions of his theme.

Do you not count different companies?

Variations don't count because I had to come up with some way to describe that Kevin Nash had only had two themes.

Edit: Goldust's two are his early 90s Dustin Rhodes theme and his Goldust theme, by the way, not some weird way of counting his eighty thousand Goldust theme variations as only really two.

Guys, who is this Alexis Bliss chick you can't talking about.

*takes a trip on the Googlemobile*

They had a sale for 20 a pair. Made the mistake in only buying one. I might get one in black or really dark blue. Only own the gray ones.

gray is p. inspired. when i have normal faded-ass black jeans it's almost the same. Black is essential though, dark blue is close to it. I gotta hop on these sales more

Pink jeggings time?
Pink jeggings time

bold choice. i mean bold.

but yes. It's time

And you don't count other companies? Diesel's first "entrance song" was just an engine and a horn over and over. Do you count that as its own thing?

 

[Rapstah]

Yeah, sure, if it didn't have the Diesel riff afterwards. I guess that makes his count three.

I almost hope that broke his goddamn elbow because of how dumb an idea tha was

 

[Rapstah]

Vince McMahon has only had one theme by my rules, so I'm pretty sure he wins. Big Show probably entered to No Chance once or twice though, I'm pretty sure.

 

[Man God]

Review an Impact time, woooo!

 

[Aiii]

here's one for Aii, the infamous "answer the phone" KO by Aerts in 1994:

Ziggler got nothing on that.

Peter Aerts is our overlord and master and we must all bow down to his greatness.

 

[Spider from Mars]

I hope everyone here only wears dark wash jeans when not making bold choices.

 

[spindashing]

Probably not gonna make it to that NJPW show. If only it was Sunday.

Edit: Fuck. Still debating it...

Yeah, looked like it hurt.

Aha.

Are there any famous Dutch pro-wrestlers? The only one of any note I can think of is Tommy End;

Plus, his tag partner in the Sumerian Death Squad, Michael Dante. Oh, Emil Sitolci, also.

Bas Rutten, I guess. He had that one match in New Japan (where he KO'd Nakanishi).

Nah, pro wrestling is pretty much a non-entity here, I guess only a few thousand people actually follow it in the entire country of 17 million.

There are some Dutch feds though like PWS: [url]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vy94K8XU860[/url]

Who knows, maybe one of them will end up in NXT someday.

Has Christopher Daniels started doing any indie dates? I took a quick look at his Twitter and it seems like he's waiting for Kaz to be released so they can tour as Bad Influence.

Yep, he confirmed on F4W Radio that Kazarian's contract is up within a month and they'll be taking bookings together.

It's so...beautiful. So full of hope.

I sat next to that on the bus. I can't come to grips with this.

 

[strobogo]

Yeah, sure, if it didn't have the Diesel riff afterwards. I guess that makes his count three.

If you actually listen to the Diesel theme and Nash's 2003 theme, the aren't the same. They are very, very similar, but they have slightly different progressions. Enough to make me consider them different. They're both generic blues, but the progressions and beats are different, however slightly.

It's a great fucking re-recording but it's also clearly supposed to be Diesel's theme but in 2003.

I would also consider Batista's first Beast theme to not count because his current theme is a re-imagining of that song. And all of Triple H's themes from 2000 until whenever he first entered to that Bow Down to the King song count as one.

It has one different chord in the riff. And is in a different time. That's enough for me to consider them different. Much like I definitely consider Rock's theme of 1998 to be different from his theme in 2001.


In my mind, Rock has at least 4 themes:

1. Rocky Maiavia
2. NOD theme
3. Rock 1998-1999 theme
4. 2000-on theme, with Hollywood Rock maybe counting as its own version

 

[Rapstah]

All of these things are true.

Except the second I guess. They're both in 4/4 and about the same tempo. ???

Thinking of biting on the new NXT shirts today....

 

[British Monsoon]

Oh man, someone uploaded a bunch of Fujiwara-gumi shows!! PWFG is hard as hell to find, I haven't got any in my shootstyle collection so I'm really looking forward to watching this. Some real cool looking matches here, including a couple of Minoru Suzuki vs Ken Shamrock encounters.

 

[Rapstah]

Brock Lesnar wins my "only one song" contest to me, does he win it to you too?

 

[spindashing]

Brock Lesnar wins my "only one song" contest to me, does he win it to you too?

He had another theme before the one he uses today, actually.

 

[avengers23]

What about Jerry Lawler?

Oh, Wikipedia lists "The Great Gate at Kiev" and a Jim Johnston joint titled "Kingdom Come" from 2011.

 

[BronsonLee]

If Hollywood Rock doesn't count as its' own damn theme I'm fighting you all

*flies in on helicopter*

 

[strobogo]

He had a temp theme before Here Comes The Pain. You can hear it at Backlash 2002. After he changed, I don't think there were any revisions except to add the sound effect at the beginning.

Piper?
Bret? (I believe he even took the Hart Foundation music when he went solo)

 

[Rapstah]

You're right. It's one of those Jim Johnston "I can only write songs with variations of the Stone Cold/Razor Ramon/Big Boss Man riff" songs.

Piper?
Bret? (I believe he even took the Hart Foundation music when he went solo)

Seems like yes to both! Bret has the Hart Foundation theme, obiously with a lot of re-recordings.

Priorities, man.

Edit: Sheamus has had one theme since his WWE debut, although they got rid of the intro.

Tajiri never had a music change his entire WWE run as far as I can tell.

 

[Spider from Mars]

He used a different song in Japan as well

 

[spindashing]

He did. He had a face theme and a heel theme that he used till the end of his WWE run.

 

[Man God]

I can never tell the difference between Jericho themes.

 

[spindashing]

I can never tell the difference between Jericho themes.

The differences are slight but you can definitely tell the changes when listening to them one after another.

 

[Rapstah]

I can never tell the difference between Jericho themes.

He has entered to Fozzy and Saliva in WWF/WWE.

Well yesterday was Kurt Angle's last match on TNA and what a way to go:

A source close to Kurt Angle has informed PWInsider.com that the TNA Hall of Famer will be out of the ring for 4-6 months following his ACL surgery.

His contract is up in the fall so that was his last match with TNA. So do you think the WWE will even contact him or will he go to the Jeff Jarrett promotion?

 

[Spider from Mars]

Angle will dab JJ's forehead while he bangs Karen. That's his new job.

They could probably offer him a legends deal for as much as he's making in TNA with the stipulation that he needs to take an entire year off of wrestling and just do promotional stuff, leading up to a big retirement run in 2016.

 

[Rapstah]

I thought he had surgery before Lockdown. Did he put it off?
