You say that when its up against goldbergs theme.

thebostoncrab

Given this a lot of thought, they both work because they sum up the character nicely while also creating unreal entrances as well as themes. As Walt said, they are the best entrances if both ECW and WCW. My vote however goes with Goldberg for one reason; it's an original song. The songs in the semi finals should be themes so strong that all I think about is the wrestler and nothing else, which Goldberg does. So he gets my vote and take the round

thebostoncrab

Up next, the indie classic goes up against what has proven to be the real dark horse of the whole thing




Bryan Danielson (ROH - The Final Countdown)

Vs.

Kazuchika Okada

Alfred Borden

Okada for me, never knew of it before but its a great tune. Dont like bryans at all

thebostoncrab

Like I said in the last match, the themes that make it into the semi finals should only make me think of the wrestler they represent and nothing else. Danielson, as much as I love his use of Final Countdown, falls here. Plus to be honest, I think I enjoy it for the entrance more than the theme...Okada however has easily the best theme music of the past few years. Again before you vote give it a listen and you'll see why this theme has made it so far in this tournament and belongs in the semi finals

Mr.Nice Guy

Okada for me also.

eireannBEAR

Haha class im going for bryan.

waltersobchak

Final Countdown for me, cheesy song that before DB used it, always reminded me of that sports show that used to be on Network 2 on a Saturday morning in the early 90's, But now when i hear it i immediately think of Dragon..

Machismo Fan

With Beer Money gone there's nothing left that comes even close to Okada. An awesome theme song, and an original theme to boot (something I'll always to prefer to a real song).

Chagan

Okada. This tournament was the first time I'd ever heard it but it has grown on me as each round passes.

thebostoncrab

1 more vote and Okada walks into the semi finals

beakerjoe

And Okada strolls indeed. Intro builds it nicely and it kicks in after the nice build of the intro to be an epic theme

Jester252

Danielson suited him well.

I turn off my laptop and Snoreberg beat both Deamer and Sandman, I feel like I let them down.

thebostoncrab

And Okada has made it into the semi finals....who will be joining him and Goldberg?


CM Punk (ROH - Cult of Personality)

Vs.

The Four Horsemen

eireannBEAR

The four horse men,Its one of the most iconic themes in wrestling history.

Omackeral

I'm gonna vote for CM Punk's Cult of Personality. I find the interruption of the live feed effect to be really f'n epic, that's with our without the Nancy Sinatra intro. Then the chaotic lead into the chorous is all kinds of awesome.

Punk.

Alfred Borden

Horsemen so iconic, has to be the favourite now i would assume

Chagan

Four Horsemen. It'd be one of my picks for the final. It's just class.

Mr.Nice Guy

This is extremely tough to call. Really torn on this one.

Will go with Punk's by a whisker.

Jester252

Horseman, love punk but original theme wins. I say the winner of this might just beat out the rest.

thebostoncrab

Again, like the last round, the final 4 should be themes that only make you think of the wrestler and nothin else, and by God The Four Horsemen do that so very very well. It is easily one of the greatest theme songs of all time

waltersobchak

Gonna go with the Horsemen, always preferred Punks AFI theme so yeah, easy choice for me

thebostoncrab

And now, the final quarter final contest


Booker T (WCW)

Vs.

ECW Theme

eireannBEAR

Booker T i cant stress how much i loved his theme,i miss wcw!!!!

Alfred Borden

The Book man for me too, good memories of WCW and probably one of my two favourites left now.

beakerjoe

ECW for me. A theme that's so iconic it ushered in the era of extreme.

It was a cheap rip off of the old nitro theme...

Omackeral

I'm gonna have to side with beakerjoe on this one. ECW's theme was menacing. Whether it was played in the ECW Arena, the Hammerstein , as Paul E's theme or even for the Originals at WrestleMania23, it never failed to evoke a reaction.

This. Is. Extreme.

They sound nothing alike, they both have distorted guitars?


I have to go with the ECW theme here, it is iconic and no matter what is happening, the second it is played everyone instantly knows what it is...helps that it is also a great song.

ECW theme for me, its beyond iconic at this stage in my opinion..

eireannBEAR

Booker!!!

looks like goldberg or the horse men are my new fav's

Jester252

You can only vote once and, shock horror, I'm voting for ECW to go through, defined the promotion, one of the best

p.s
Bookers WWE theme is much better than his WCW

thebostoncrab

And with that here are your semi finalists


The Four Horsemen

ECW Theme

Goldberg

Kazuchika Okada

beakerjoe

Im rooting for 2 themes, hope they don't get drawn together.

Jester252

I say the horsemen will win it but Okada is a dark horse

Alfred Borden

I see what you did there :pac:

thebostoncrab

Okada has truly been the dark horse, will he make it all the way to the finals against the might ECW theme? It's the semi finals folks, first to 7 votes wins!

Kazuchika Okada

Vs

ECW Theme

thebostoncrab

And my vote here goes to Okada. The ECW theme may have been iconic for its generation, but it didn't have crowd interaction and it didn't have a certain something that Okadas theme has. Okada to make the final!

beakerjoe

Ah the 2 themes I didn't want together, so I have to choose one and will stick with the theme to the final.

Okada for me. Its a theme that makes him seem like a big deal. If it was in WWE it would be iconic by now.

Angron

Delighted to see Goldberg this far. Shame he didn't have that exact theme in WWE.

Anyway, to the battle at hand.. Torn a bit on this one. I'd never heard Okada's theme before this, but it's really grown on me. On the other hand, it's EC-F'n-W. The Extreme one takes it for me.

Jester252

I could post nothing and Boston will know who I'm voting for. Will be a shock if it gets past Okada but I'm loyal.

ECW theme, hard hitting, ass kicking and not afraid to fight the big dogs just like the company

Machismo Fan

Okada, a much better theme song on nearly every level. Personally think the ECW one is a little bland.

Chagan

I'll go with ECW. I like Okada's when I listen to it but I always struggle to remember afterwards. I think I'm just more familiar with ECW's and it has more memories connected to it.

The next semi is a nightmare for me that I hoped would be saved until the final.

eireannBEAR

Okada never heard of it before this,but i like it.

Alfred Borden

Okada a really good theme and im sure a new one to many of us

waltersobchak

I like Okada's theme, but the ECW theme has such weight and resonance with me so it gets my vote
