The Power of Entrance Music: Bischoff Weighs In

Eric Bischoff Discusses the Significance of Iconic Themes in Wrestling

In the world of professional wrestling, entrance music plays a pivotal role in defining a wrestler’s character and setting the stage for their arrival. Eric Bischoff, a name synonymous with wrestling’s golden era, recently shared his insights on the subject during an episode of “83 Weeks.”

Bischoff delved into the topic while discussing Bret Hart’s WCW stint. He noted that when Hart made his entrance during a particular WCW event, there was a conspicuous absence of his iconic WWE theme music. This omission, according to Bischoff, was a “huge miss” on WCW’s part. Bret Hart’s WWE theme was instantly recognizable and played a significant role in his overall presentation.

Drawing parallels with the film industry, Bischoff emphasized the importance of music in setting the tone. He remarked, “How many great movies can you recall that didn’t have an identifiable soundtrack with it?” Citing the example of the song “Danger Zone” from the movie “Top Gun,” Bischoff highlighted how certain tracks become synonymous with the content they accompany.

In the wrestling realm, entrance themes serve a similar purpose. They not only herald the arrival of a superstar but also encapsulate their persona. Bischoff mentioned the iconic themes of Hollywood Hogan, Goldberg, and the NWO as examples of music that elevated the characters they represented.

Reflecting on the oversight with Bret Hart’s WCW theme, Bischoff admitted it was a mistake. He emphasized that it wasn’t an intentional slight against Hart but rather an unfortunate oversight. In Bischoff’s words, entrance music is “critical” and can significantly impact a wrestler’s presentation.
