    I don't think Misawa can ever expect me to vote against him. It's the absolute best wrestling theme Evers created and just scream "epic" from the opening piano. Give this theme to anyone and they instantly become a big deal.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,533 ✭✭✭Jester252


    Danielson, not the best theme but better than Misawa. I just don't get the hype.

    Dont care anymore too many WWE fans are rigging the votes... :p

    Despite there being no WWE themes?

    Misawa. I just can't take Danielson's theme seriously. All I picture is:

    Yes. its a conspiracy. :D


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,520 ✭✭✭Hashtag_HEEL


    Danielson! How can you go against a theme like that?! It's fantastic! If he could be anymore over it'd be using this theme and having fans throw streamers into the ring!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,758 ✭✭✭✭beakerjoe


    My vote goes to Gob...I mean Bryan Danielson

    Its so him, I wish they would bring it back for him, Surely Europe need some royaltys


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,491 ✭✭✭thebostoncrab


    Both 3 for 3, ever battle this round has been close!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,019 ✭✭✭ShagNastii


    I have to say Mitsuharu Misawa. Not because I rate his theme in any way, I just totally disregard "The Final Countdown" begin used by DB.

    Misawa a single vote away from victory, if there is no other vote thrown in by 22.54 (ie 24 hours after the last vote) then Misawa will go through automatically


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Music Moderators, Regional Midlands Moderators Posts: 24,126 Mod ✭✭✭✭Angron


    Danielson. Don't really think too much of Misawa's, while I quite like Danielson's.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 11,348 ✭✭✭✭ricero


    danielson for me. i think it suits danielson and i love that song proper 80s cheese


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,533 ✭✭✭Jester252


    What an upset by Danielson, robs it at the end


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,520 ✭✭✭Hashtag_HEEL


    YES! YES! YES!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,491 ✭✭✭thebostoncrab


    What a come back! It looked like he was on the way out but The American Dragon is into the quarter finals! Next!


    Kazuchika Okada



    Vs.

    Beer Money



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,491 ✭✭✭thebostoncrab


    Again I hope people listen to the themes before voting, because I can't see how you could vote against Okada here. I have voted for Beer Money in previous rounds, but I think they had a lucky draw. Okada has the far superior theme here and perhaps the best theme song to come out in the past few years, it's excellent.


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,943 ✭✭✭Machismo Fan


    I was just thinking how I missed all the other Beer Money votes and then in this round you throw out the one theme song left that I'd vote for ahead of Beer Money. Why do you hate me tbc? Has to be Okada, despite my deep love of Beer Money's. As I said earlier the moment where it shifts from the intro to his regular theme is just perfection.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,012 ✭✭✭✭Alfred Borden


    Beer Money for me, tnas best theme and suited the two of them perfectly.

    I was all ready to vote for American Males the whole way through then they went up against one of the very few themes I vote against them with :p

    Gave the Rainmakers a good listen to there (wouldn't be all that familiar with NJPW). I think it would be a good soundtrack on a movie but for wrestling themes, Beer Money is better in my opinion. The start is instantly a pop and that to me is important for a theme.

    Storm and Roode get my vote.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,758 ✭✭✭✭beakerjoe


    Kazuchika Okada for me, from the intro to when the theme kicks in is superior to Berr Money

    Sad to see Beer Money go though


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,491 ✭✭✭thebostoncrab


    3 for Okada and 2 for Beer Money so far, it's not over yet through as the Danielson/Misawa match showed!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,533 ✭✭✭Jester252


    Okada, it carries for longer. I think I might be dreading the next match up


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,491 ✭✭✭thebostoncrab


    Okada is one vote away from victory


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 45,630 ✭✭✭✭Mr.Nice Guy


    I enjoy both but I prefer Okada's theme.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,491 ✭✭✭thebostoncrab


    And Okada, the man who really has gotten a lot further than expected, makes it to the quarter finals. Who will join him, there are only two matches left this round!

    Goldberg



    Vs.

    Tommy Dreamer (ECW)



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,491 ✭✭✭thebostoncrab


    My vote here goes for Tommy. The theme suited him perfectly and spoke so much about his character. The Goldberg theme was epic to start off with, but it doesn't hold your attention for as gold as Dreamers.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,533 ✭✭✭Jester252


    Dreamer, ECW just had away with themes and I find Goldberg to be a bit boring.

  • Registered Users Posts: 2,017 ✭✭✭Chagan


    Goldberg. I just love it. I could listen to it all day. It's got that epic sound that could get even Yoshi Tatsu over as a star.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 32,956 ✭✭✭✭Omackeral


    Goldberg. I wouldn't call his theme boring at all, as another poster has. It's moreso no-nonsense. Has that big time feel about it and has a clear military influence too. Bilbo gets my vote.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 2,713 ✭✭✭eireannBEAR


    Goldberg him or booker should win this.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,019 ✭✭✭ShagNastii


    Was to be Goldberg. The theme and entrance was so eminent.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 638 ✭✭✭Endaaaagh


    Goldberg, suited him down to the ground.


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Music Moderators, Regional Midlands Moderators Posts: 24,126 Mod ✭✭✭✭Angron


    Goldberg, it was the defining theme of WCW for me.


  • Advertisement
  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,491 ✭✭✭thebostoncrab


    And Goldberg is in, which means the final two of this round are:

    Booker T (WCW)



    Vs

    Sabu (ECW)



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,491 ✭✭✭thebostoncrab


    Two great themes, there is no denying it, but Sabu just edges it for me. Booker has a great theme, but Sabu has an iconic theme, and there is the difference between the two. You can imagine Booker coming out to something different in the past, and he has...but Sabu could never come out to a different song, it IS Sabu. The mix of the eastern sound of his heritage mixed with the heavy guitar of his extreme style was flawless.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,758 ✭✭✭✭beakerjoe


    Saaaaabbbbbuuuuuu for me
    Perfect theme for the hardcore sheik. Blends the origins and ways of sabu nicely in a theme


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 2,713 ✭✭✭eireannBEAR


    Booker the best of wcw.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 45,630 ✭✭✭✭Mr.Nice Guy


    Really like the Booker T theme so will go with that.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,012 ✭✭✭✭Alfred Borden


    Booker, suited him well on his rise to being a major star in wcw


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 32,956 ✭✭✭✭Omackeral


    Wow it's a toss up and a half here, ultimate clash of styles. I had Sabu as a dead cert but on listening again I think Book's is more a sports theme and slicker. Sabu's is eerie and suits him so much. But I'm gonna go with Mr T


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,019 ✭✭✭ShagNastii


    My toughest decision yet by far. It's hard to look past Booker. Sabu's theme was spot on perfectly grungy for ECW but has that Arabian overtones.

    Booke'rs theme is "career long" iconic. When I think of Booker I instantly think of his theme.

    Booker.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,491 ✭✭✭thebostoncrab


    And with that folks, here are your quarter finalist!


    Booker T (WCW)

    Bryan Danielson (ROH - The Final Countdown)

    CM Punk (ROH - Cult of Personality)

    ECW Theme

    Four Horsemen

    Goldberg

    Kazuchika Okada

    Sandman (ECW)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,491 ✭✭✭thebostoncrab


    Our first quarter final match up is here, this time it's the first to 6. This theme has already defeated one favourite in Hulk Hogan, will it take down another WCW classic?


    B]Goldberg




    Vs

    The Sandman (ECW)



  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 2,713 ✭✭✭eireannBEAR


    Easily goldberg one of my all time favs.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 32,956 ✭✭✭✭Omackeral


    Heavyweight Clash. It's a real hairsplitting exercise at this point. I love Sandman's to be honest but if we're solely judging themes as opposed to entrances, big Billy G takes it for me. It's dominant, it's intimidating, it's no nonsense, it's simple. It's Goldberg defined.

    Goldberg.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,083 ✭✭✭waltersobchak


    Sandman! That entrance was the embodiment of everything that was great about ECW.. actually quite apt that its Sandman vs Goldberg in this round since Goldberg probably had the best entrance in WCW as well, but Sandman wins hands down in my opinion


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,012 ✭✭✭✭Alfred Borden


    Goldberg here! suited him well, knew he was gonna dominate and could make anyone a star


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,943 ✭✭✭Machismo Fan


    Goldberg. A perfect theme song for him and matched his entrance so well.
