If you were a boxer, UFC fighter, or professional wrestler, what music would you want playing as you strut into the arena?
It's gotta be fierce and intimidating, but reflect who you are.
I'd choose "Venom" by Eminem. Fitting because tetradon is another name for lethal puffer fish toxin.
Carry on My Wayward Son by Kansas
Hip to be Square by Huey Lewis and the News
Picking Fade by One Reason. It was the opener for Deadman Wonderland…an amazing show that got cancelled after 1 season 😢 m.youtube.com
Powerman 5000 "When Worlds Collide"
Drowning Pool "Bodies"
This is one of the favorite discussions my friends and I have when drinking. What's the song playing when you come out for a fight, or up to bat, or out of the bullpen?
Nothing about who I am, but these are usually the ones I come up with because they're just all bad ass (actually...the Irish/Scottish ones are kinda "me"):
Alice in Chains - "Rooster"
Tool - "Ticks and Leaches"
Sinead O'Connor & The Chieftains - "The Foggy Dew" (yup...the song Conor McGregor comes out to. Fuck the Brits for the "potato famine" genocide).
Or just some random Celtic-style battle music: drums + bagpipes + flutes = fucking bad ass.
First one is a band called The Wicked Tinkers. Aside from the Scotch, they're my favorite part of the Scottish festival when it comes to Phoenix in the spring. Super simple song, just pipes and drums like they've done for hundreds of years...except here they're doing it on the Craig Ferguson Show (with Craig drumming). And the next two are just a couple other random bagpipes + drum tunes.

Made You Look - Nas Dirt Off Your Shoulder- Jay Z Tom Sawyer Remix - Rush Stranglehold- Ted Nugent
Stranglehold - good call
Stranglehold, youd have to have them start it when you leave your house on the way to the venue.

Oh jeez how could I forget Audioslave "Cochise"?? The build up to the explosion of drums, guitar, and Chris Cornell's primal yell/sing is killer.
Die MF Die - Dope youtube.com
Easy one youtube.com
I think Disturbed - Violence Fetish would be a good one.
"Tiptoe Through The Tulips" by Tiny Tim.
😜😆
Couple of recent ones I like:
Although Rooster is an excellent choice...
Well shit....
Still drunk from last night...
Grand Finale from the William Tell Overture
Thunderstruck by AC/DC Welcome to the Jungle by Guns N’ Roses
At our local minor league baseball games the PA guy loves screwing with opposing players. He’ll give them walk up music like Celine Dion’s song from Titanic or Girls Just Wanna Have Fun.
ahem...
A couple more:
Disturbed - "Fear" or "Meaning of Life" Powerman 5000 - "Bombshell"
Pantera - "Mouth For War" I used to love listening to that in the locker room before hockey games.
People who Died - Jim Carroll Band
The Final Countdown.
Genesis- mama but the instrumental because it’s sexy.
Iron Man youtube.com
Get in the ring GNR youtube.com
Oh holy shit. GREAT call with Get in the Ring!!
"What, are you pissed 'cause your dad gets more pussy than you? Fuck you! Suck my fuckin' dick!"
Axl was not happy with Bob Guccioni (sp?) Jr.
Lol
I was scrolling down to add "Tiptoe through the tulips", but AtacDog got there 1st.
I'm Sexy and I Know It
Sabotage by the Beastie Boys
Link fell out.
7 Nation Army by White Stripes
Radioactive by Imagine Dragons
Rock Superstar by Cypress Hill or
‘Till I Collapse by Eminem and Nate Dogg
I win.
Stone Cold Crazy!!!
So many songs by….. Led Zeppelin Queen Ozzy Metallica
Tornado of Souls Megadeth
I was also going to add Tiptoe Through the Tulips by Tiny Tim. It bothers me a bit that two others came up with it. I guess warped minds think alike. It is probably the worst song of all time and least appropriate hype music.
I would want the first part of Thunderstruck.
I linked to this not too long ago but… The Ultimate Showdown of Ultimate Destiny m.youtube.com
I forgot about a great band - with great energy for a fight - Norma Jean!
This one might be fun - to fuck with the other dudes head - R Kelly Thoi Thong!
Drake nonstop
