I was sitting on my couch watching Raw this past week and a thought hit me, Ted DiBiase sucks!
But outside of that, I also noticed that both he and R-Truth had new entrance music.
As much as I tried to think why they would change R-Truths music from something very over to something mildly unintelligible, an idea for a thread hit me.
How important is entrance music in setting the character of a superstar?
I mean, when you look at a lot of the people in the WWE, you can imagine their entrance music. If you thought about Edge, Triple H or Jericho, I am willing to wager that you could sing their themes from memory. The fact of the matter is that when people use the same entrance theme for years, they become a part of the persona that they are trying to get over to us.
Sometimes they work and other times they dont. Take Daniel Bryans new theme for instance. Whilst it is a pretty fun little tune to enter the arena to, I cannot help but think of him being laughable when he appears to it. I personally think that the entrance theme of a wrestler says everything about who the WWE want us to see. Give them a serious rock tune and you know that this guy means business. Give him a up-beat and comedic song and that is what you are going to get.
So, am I looking at this too generally or do you think that I am onto something here?
If you think I am being too broad, why do you feel that way?
