Bootleg themes
I know WCW was full of these. What are some other ones though?

Pretty much any theme in TNA except for a select few.

kurt angle using the patriot's theme

Oh yea. Samoa Joe's theme is just a bootleg Godzilla Theme

Wasn't Kurt Angle's WWE theme based on "Gonna Fly Now" from Rocky. There are similarities.

Kurt Angle's theme is lifted from this:

isn't this copyright infringement?
are they paying royalties to use these themes? |
they change them just enough to make them "original" and avoid copyright issues
|
The other day I was walking and singing Macho Man's theme song and somebody asked me "did you reciently attend a graduation?" Personally, I think that the WWE should use more public domain songs as themes. Imagine Batista, scowling and covered in tattoos, walking to the ring to "the bridal march" :shifty:
|
Does RVD' TNA theme count as bootleg? lol if that, then that

I think TNA can use the WCW version of Raven's theme now that Jimmy Hart is in TNA. |

I could swear I've heard that before from somewhere, just unsure where...as well as <object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube-nocookie.com/v/xFsTf8GZIvs&hl=en_US&fs=1&rel=0"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube-nocookie.com/v/xFsTf8GZIvs&hl=en_US&fs=1&rel=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object> If anybody knows if those are rip-offs of something else or not and could put up the vids of what they're from I'd be most grateful. |

Well, I'm aware that they've been used in the "public domain" or w/etf you call it forever, I was more just curious to have my memory refreshed as to where I'd heard them from...there's one other I know I've heard a million times before it was used in WWE, too... <object width="580" height="360"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube-nocookie.com/v/ARtM6mm3MAo&hl=en_US&fs=1&rel=0&color1=0x5d1719&color2=0xcd311b&border=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube-nocookie.com/v/ARtM6mm3MAo&hl=en_US&fs=1&rel=0&color1=0x5d1719&color2=0xcd311b&border=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="580" height="360"></embed></object> |
DDP's self high five = smells like teen spirit by nirvana

lets just post the videos of the actual comparisons

New theme is a cover of his old theme. |
Well, Purg, you make a good point, except those were both done by WWE in-house, presumably by the one and only Jim Johnston, so I dunno if I'd really call Christian's new version of Just Close Your Eyes (Story of The Year version, as opposed to the 2005 cut by Waterproof Blonde), a "bootleg" theme, per se.
