''The'' () is a grammatical article in English, denoting persons or things that are already or about to be mentioned, under discussion, implied or otherwise presumed familiar to listeners, readers, or speakers.

The most common uses of music in professional wrestling is that of the entrance theme, a song or piece of instrumental music which plays as a performer approaches the ring. After a match, the entrance theme of the victor will normally be played as they exit the ring. Entrance themes are used to alert the audience to the immediate arrival of a wrestler, and to increase anticipation. Usage as part of a gimmick Entrance themes are often tailored to the gimmick of the wrestler they are written or selected for. For example, Hulk Hogan's most famous entrance theme in the WWE is Rick Derringer's "Real American", containing lyrics pertaining to Hogan's patriotism ("I am a real American; fight for the rights of every man..."), while The Undertaker has often used entrance themes which resemble a funeral march, including the ringing of an eerie funeral toll and a quote of Piano Sonata No. 2 (Chopin). In practice, modern day ent ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
