    So we are watching old WW(F)E, and they have this generic ass masked wrestler named The Patriot. He’s in a feud with Bret Hart. I was quite surprised when I heard his music. Turns out, Kurt Angle’s music is reused

      And then the next week, with John Bobbitt.

      Then you’ll look up who John Bobbitt was…and hooboy. It certainly is a thing that happened…

        I know of the actual story. They did a storyline of that?

          Omg…I don’t know how you’ve never heard of it, and I don’t even want to spoil it. This is like the time I got to show my friend Hogzn vs HBK at summerslam, with them going in blind.

            It almost sounds vaguely familiar, but no, I don’t recall it. I was able to show my partner the Shawn Michael’s and Hogan fight. So great to be able to show that to someone new

      Brock Lesnars music is reused too. It was originally the XFL Chicago Enforcers music they used when the whole team would take to the field in home games.

          Jerry Lawler is reused too. Originally it was Harley Race.

          Oooh oooh, and CM Punk used to come out to “This Fire Burns”, but before that it was used one time, for one night, by Randy Orton. Orton didn’t feel it was a good fit though.

          Orton was sick of his generic sounding song that just kept saying “HEY!”. Guess he was hearing those voices in his head…

          And that’s how CM Punk got his first wwe theme.

          HBK is known for his theme “sexy boy”, but it’s actually the second version of that song. The first version had Sherri Martell singing a shortened, but mostly the same version of the same lyrics.

          I’ll probably post more of these as I remember them. I know hulk hogans real american is reused, but I can’t remember who originally had it.

            Burn in My Light wasn’t so bad. I think overall I preferred it to Voices. But WWE’s version did have a several heys in it. The actual song has I want to say 5 total, but WWE’s edit had about 7 in the first minute and a half.

            Orton didn’t feel it was a good fit though.

            My understanding was that the company didn’t like it for him.

            It should also be noted he doesn’t like Voices either.

            Hell yeah, keep 'em coming! I don’t have as easy access to YouTube as I once did, so I haven’t been getting my info dumps like I like to turn on

            I didn’t realize Randy had that song first. That’s funny. I knew Sherri had done a version of Sexy Boy, but was hazy on the details. Lawler’s is new to me, but I can’t even think of his music right now

              Lawlers doesn’t have lyrics, so it’s hard to describe.

              It’s like HUUUUUUU HUUUUUUUUUU HUUUU HU HUUU HUUUUUUUUUUU HUUUU HUUUU HUUUUU HUUU HU HU HU HU

              If that were a trumpet, and sounding royal.

      Good ol Del Wilkes. He was around a bunch of places back then before WWF, went to Japan after and back to WWF for a bit again. Just died a few years ago iirc.

    i was bored so i asked copilot to make a wrestling angle. i don’t hate them.

    Absolutely! Here’s a fun and engaging wrestling angle featuring Andy Kaufman and Lulu Pencil in AEW 2024:

    Title: “The Comedy Clash”

    Setting: AEW Dynamite, November 2024

    Segment 1: Kaufman’s Return The show kicks off with a surprise appearance by Andy Kaufman. He enters the ring, boasting about his legendary status and how he revolutionized wrestling with his comedic antics. Kaufman claims that no one in AEW can match his wit and charisma.

    Segment 2: Lulu Pencil’s Challenge As Kaufman continues to brag, Lulu Pencil’s music hits. She walks out to the ring with her signature pencil and notepad, looking determined. Lulu grabs a mic and tells Kaufman that while he may be a legend, he hasn’t faced anyone like her. She challenges Kaufman to a match, promising to show him the true spirit of wrestling.

    Segment 3: The Setup Tony Khan appears on the screen and announces that Kaufman and Lulu Pencil will face off in a special “Comedy Wrestling Match” at the next AEW pay-per-view, Full Gear. The match will have unique rules, allowing both competitors to use their comedic skills to outwit each other.

    Main Event: Full Gear - Comedy Wrestling Match The match is filled with hilarious moments and clever spots. Kaufman tries to use his old tricks, but Lulu Pencil counters with her own brand of humor and resilience. The crowd is thoroughly entertained as the two engage in a battle of wits and wrestling.

    Climax: The Surprise Just as Kaufman thinks he has the upper hand, Lulu pulls out a giant pencil from under the ring and uses it to trip Kaufman. She then rolls him up for a quick pin, securing the victory. The crowd erupts in cheers as Lulu Pencil celebrates her win.

    Aftermath: The Respect After the match, Kaufman, initially furious, eventually smiles and extends his hand to Lulu. He acknowledges her talent and declares that she has earned his respect. The two shake hands, and Kaufman raises Lulu’s hand in victory, marking the beginning of an unlikely alliance.
