Best uses of licensed music in wrestling

[flyonthewall2983]

To me one of the funnier and moments I can relate to on Something to Wrestle With is when Bruce is asked about Hilbilly Jim’s music being overdubbed on the Network and he immediately says he hates it. The downside to the way music is used and overdubbed eventually is kind of a bummer to whatever nostalgia is happening.

This is a topic I’m interested in exploring more directly with you guys since I’m guessing you’ve watched a lot more wrestling then I have. With AEW bringing in classic rock songs for some of its top talent was an encouraging sign to me that they are of the world rather than of their own universe so to speak. 
 

For me, and this shifts every so often but I’m still impressed at the ECW November to Remember videos using Guns n Roses’ “November Rain” as the hype package for the show.

Ric Flair using "Easy Lover" against Barry Windham in 1986 is possibly the greatest entrance ever.
