It was easily my favourite entrance of 2022, TJPW Grand Princess where they brought every member of Biishiki-gun. Including the ones that had retired, were working under different gimmicks and even for different companies https://twitter.com/tjpw2013/status/1505079205201326083

The Sandman's entrance when he returned to ECW was much cooler. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tmGrPBPhUrs And of course Bryan Danielson's entrance to face Takeshi Morishima at Final Battle 2008 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cIMchtKNCZs

Maybe it's just because Carry on Wayward Son is one of my favourite songs, but this owned. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IeeMtZrYsUU E: and that CM Punk Revolution entrance owned. God drat it was a cool moment. Shaman Tank Spec fucked around with this message at 20:11 on Jan 1, 2023 |

No Youtube link cause TV Asahi and New Japan suck but Minoru Suzuki at Wrestle Kingdom 7 https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x5pdmvi Same idea but made better by the rain https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N1orZwNF07s (This also lowkey is one of the more underrated matches of Okada's god year. Such an amazing match in the rain

In order, for me: Sting's 1997 Clash of the Champions debut https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=96xkLsd7YhU When a man’s heart is full of deceit, it burns up, dies, and a dark shadow falls over his soul. From the ashes of a once great man has risen a curse. A wrong that must be righted. We look to the sky for a vindicator, someone to strike fear in to the black heart of the same man who created him. A battle between good and evil has begun. Against an army of shadows comes a dark warrior. The purveyor of good, with the voice of silence, and a mission of justice…. This is Sting. Shinsuke's Smackdown Debut (posted) Hangman's FFTF21 entrance (posted) There's too much good stuff. Great idea for a thread Mr. Meagles fucked around with this message at 03:48 on Jan 2, 2023 |

I want to give props to the two kings of Pro Wrestling entrances in MMA, Akihiro Gono and Genki Sudo Akihiro Gono was a fairly middle of the road PRIDE fighter who is pretty much only remembered for his giant elaborate entrances like this one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PS_qJ3ojfLg&t=347s He later had a brief stint in the UFC where they allowed him to do an elaborate entrance once, he chose to do this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PZ-PPObggms Dana White was not a fan and didn't allow any future entrances. Genki Sudo was the original and did tons of creative entrances, usually themed but with an overall message of international unity and peace https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gQB2qj64mTk After he retired he moved into making music and dance videos under the name World Order, this is my personal favorite of theirs: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zlK5abIJRyM

https://youtu.be/ByAXCjqBzLg Kinda a bummer in retrospect, but I remember watching Punk's debut appearance in AEW bank multiple times in absolute awe at how lit this crowd was. AEW has notoriously lovely sound, but the fact that the crowd is drowning out the music blows my mind. https://youtu.be/qz_RK7Wl0tY Malakai Black's original entrance is extremely my poo poo.

Nakamura 's WK entrance with the pole dancer was really something else. Can't find it, unfortunately. Also this might be a deep cut, but Chikara did a KOT not long after Larry Sweeney passed away, and Eddie Kingston came out to Larry's favorite song "Highwayman" by the Highwaymen, which would be nice way to honor him on its own but the song is literally about the idea of spirits living on and being eternal.
