Never mind old man Stinger's theme, I'm still trying to figure out Rowan's new theme, I kinda like it but it seems like it's missing a point where it takes off and packs that extra bit of punch.

 

[Dick Justice]

Didn't Booker get to keep his WCW theme? Obviously Flair did.

Who else? Goldberg?

At first, though he got a re-done version at some point (which I preferred).

 

[jmdajr]

I thought Sting would get the version from the 2K15 commercial.

Yeah.... I was let down as far as that goes.

 

[Toki767]

Bischoff used free music for a lot of the WCW themes. Pat Tanaka used to come out to Goldberg's theme.

I imagine Sting's theme is one of the ones that actually cost money to use so WWE probably just didn't want to pay royalties.

But they've used it on TV for the 2K advertisements and in the game itself. And on WWE.com. And as entrance music for him at the 2K roster reveal.

Sting used Metallica once as his theme.

Cheap fucks. They buy one for Cm Punk but not Sting?

Could be that 2K paid for usage?

2k paid to make that commercial

nWo and Hollywood Hogan.

Goldberg, Hogan (Voodoo Child), nWo, and Billy Kidman.

 

[slightconfuse]

Stings theme like all others wasa Jimmy Hart joint. They probably could have gotten it if they wanted to

 

[Sibersk Esto]

I'm fairly certain Goldberg's theme was redone

 

[giancarlo123x]

I'm sure he'll use it for his fancy wrestlemania entrance.

They better. I demand this!

 

[Kaladin]

All this fuss over the music, what he got was fine and it fit the atmosphere of the crow Sting character. Who cares if it is the old music?

 

[Liquidsnake]

Oh god I forgot larry the cable guy was on tonight. For what demographic cena fans don't know who he is. My gen doesn't care, who's he there for? How can I take WWE serious when this guy appears on the show?

Jesus post SS too?

 

[Ithil]

That was an actual rights problem. They used his WCW theme at first then lost the rights to it, so they did a Jimmy Hart soundalike.

 

[Toki767]

I don't even remember the music. It just sounded super generic like anyone could have come out to it.

 

[jmdajr]

All this fuss over the music, what he got was fine and it fit the atmosphere of the crow Sting character. Who cares if it is the old music?

It's a big deal. Just imagine HBK, Stone Cold, Hogan coming back and you hear something besides their iconic music.

I don't know. It bothers me.

He made a movie for WWE films.

 

[Macho Madness]

From the LAW

**For what it is worth I was told indirectly about an idea for the company to book themselves coming out of last night’s main event stipulation and let’s just hope they don’t opt to go with it.

 

[Liquidsnake]

Y'all need to leave Sting alone. Let him be old and bald. It's not like he's HBK and keeping his hair long and always wearing a hat. He knows he is bald. He's okay with. Be okay with it. Abba God gave him that hair for a reason. You cunts.

But if he dyed it, for such a big debut it would have been better.

 

[Fox318]

He made a movie for WWE films.

That nobody will buy.

 

[strobogo]

Scott Steiner kept his siren.
Booker kept his music
Nash/nWo kept their music
Hogan got to keep Voodoo Chilly
Kidman kept his
Rey's old theme was used in hype videos for him
Goldberg kept his
Shane Helms for like one show
Kanyon
NBT for a bit
Chavo
Lance Storm kept his
Buff kept his


So..a lot of WCW kept their music when coming over.

 

[Fox318]

This week on raw they will change Stings music to this

[slightconfuse]

Global Force Wrestling announced a deal with the Flipps app today where those outside of North America will be able to watch Wrestle Kingdom 9 on their wireless device on the app. The show will be available both live and on demand by downloading the app

Don't know what flips,is but it's how euros can get WK9 IN ENGLISH

 

[Thorakai]

So I just rewatched the Sting segment and just realized that I managed to completely ignore commentary, I don't remember a lot of this. I was too concentrated on the debut to even give a damn about the commentary live.

They said something along the lines of "what will his impact be" or "hell of an impact". lol.

Oh yes!

So the last scheduled Raw is currently on February 23rd, 2015 in Nashville, TN.

Maybe they can hold Raw in Atlanta the following week.......

At that point they have to start making their way towards the west coast right?

 

[Bowser]

That reminds me of Stone Cold's Alliance theme music: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CT43RmVwvUc

Fucking horrendous. I hated it so much.

 

[bjork]

"I don't like Sting's new music where is his old music"

Back in 2001 GRANDPAS

 

[Ithil]

Or back in September when they used it in the video game commercial

The last time they did a Raw in atlanta the crowd was dead.


Not blaming Atlanta, I blame WWE for fielding a bad product.

 

[bjork]

Who watched that? We have gifs to tell us about a game.

 

[Fox318]

Us supposed grandpas are the only ones who have a means to pay for the network.

Unless all of the cena babies start working in the sweatshops where his shirts are made I don't see them paying for the network.

 

[Bowser]

Eh, I blame Atlanta.

The crowd for WM27 sucked too.

Then again, that Mania was headlined by a non-confrontation between Cena and Rock (with a guest appearance by "WWE Champion" Miz), so uh, maybe blame WWE too.

 

[bjork]

I don't pay for that trash. Give me original Superstars or give me death.

 

[Macho Madness]

 

[C.Dark.DN]

I need money so I can go to these Nash and ATL shows. I saw Rock at a RAW at least.

 

[Professor Beef]

Is that D.Brine's relative from the south?

 

[Aiii]

Is that D.Brine's relative from the south?

Yeah, but this one actually gets to headline Raw.

 

[British Monsoon]

What's a 'Larry the Cable Guy'? Is he some sort of 'murican funny man?

 

[Pop-O-Matic]

Oooh, were gonna have action to night not seen since The War of Northern Aggression.

 

[blackaroni]

What's a 'Larry the Cable Guy'? Is he some sort of 'murican funny man?

'Murican? Yes
Funny? No

 

[Xater]

What's a 'Larry the Cable Guy'? Is he some sort of 'murican funny man?

The reaction I see to the guy suggest he is actually not funny.

 

[British Monsoon]

'Murican? Yes

Well, I'm sure RAW will be just delightful.
