My wrestling phase was brief, but what always sticks in my head is the walkout song for Stevie Ray and Booker T.

The Junkyard Dog didn't need movie screens, smoke bombs, or pyrotechnics. All JYD needed was a boom-box and a cassette tape of Queen's "Another One Bites the Dust," and the place was LIT.

Anyone fortunate enough to have seen him wrestle live in Mid-South will attest to the fact that you rarely heard past the opening bass lick of the song before the crowd response drowned-out the music. The Dog was over like rover.

Another favorite ring entrance was that of "Rowdy" Roddy Piper, most notably as a heel. The Hot Rod would simply walk from the locker room area to the ring like most folks walk from their car to their apartment door. but the look on his face and the way he carried himself was enough to drive fans mad. The subtle head-bobs and the chewing gum were all he needed to make fans wanna kill him. The bagpipes were a nice touch, too.

Say what you will about pro wrestling, but Piper had fans in no less than New York City, at Madison Square Garden, eating outta the palm of his hand with his act. Many, many performers in the entertainment industry couldn't do that once; Piper did it monthly for years.

Their Road Warriors branding and entrance to Iron Man by Sabbath as an act in the NWA was better, IMO.

ETA - I had my stepdad take me to the local record store to special order Iron Man & We Will Rock You (Rick Rude tag team) on 45.

Mine are Flair, SCSA, Hogan, Taker and the Rock.

These all contain distinctive music which fans knew within the first note, but also a walk or approach to the ring with mannerisms which were just as distinctive.

Honorable mention: Ultimate Warrior (his music just wasn't all that memorable but damn if you don't remember the energy in his ring entrance)

Younger folks have no clue how bad people lost their shite when "Another One Bites the Dust" kicked in. When it did, you knew Louisiana's champ was in the house and somebody was gonna get learnt.
