Music Monday — What are you listening to? (Wrestler Entrance Songs Edition)

cover image source: Giphy

Alright y'all, we're getting into some goofy editions here, but hang with me... I wanna know if you were a wrestler, what would your entrance song be? If you're unfamiliar with wrestling culture and the importance of entrance songs, you can get a sense of things from this YouTube video. So, with that in mind, what would your entrance song be?

Hulk Hogan bobbing up and down while strumming a Stratocaster guitar with an American flag painted on it. He is superimposed in front of a bunch of fireworks going off.


How we do

In this weekly series, folks can chime in and drop links to whatever it is they've been listening to recently + browse others suggestions. You can follow the suggested genre if you'd like, but don't feel confined to it; you're free to suggest whatever you wanna. 🙌

If you're interested in having other discussions about music, consider following the aptly named #music discussions organization.


Alright, let's get ready to ruuuuuumble some speakers. 😝 Note: you can embed a link to your song using the following syntax {% embed https://... %}. This should work for most common platforms!

Looking forward to listening to y'all's suggestions! 🎶

I think I'd take the classic rock route with "Rumble" by Link Wray.

It's a fifties tune and known for being one of the original uses of distorted guitar... it was banned from the radio at one point, a pretty impressive feat for an instrumental track. Although it's dated, I think it has a bad ass history and would be an appropriate entrance track. 🎸
