Wrestling References In Music
 

Ok, I thought this would make a good, pointless topic. Just wondering what wrestling related references you've heard in music. The only stipulation is that it isn't a wrestler's theme song or produced by a wrestling company. It doesn't even have to be mainstream. Anyway...

in Eminem & Redman's "Off The Wall" Redman mentions "Ya'll outta work like Tony Atlas."
in Bloodhound Gang's "Right Turn Clyde" Jimmy Pop rhymes "Givin' me that Macho Man Randy Savage stare." with "Wanna snap into a Slim Jim, break my limbs but do I care?"
in Bloodhound Gang's "No Rest For The Wicked" there's a line that goes "Body slam ya to the ground like I was Captain Lou Albano"

I'll post some more when I remember them.

Redman, Method Man, Project Pat, and many other reffer to wrestling alot in their songs..

Three-Six Maffia did a few.

And the Heelwalkers had a ton.

Dont forget ICP bodyslam your mama through a table like sabu

This is in a ludacris song 'block lockdown'
"I got permission to put ya mamma in a headlock
She tried to jook me in a figure-fo' leg lock"

"What is a Juggalo?
A Hulka-maniac
He powrbombs motha fuckas into thumb tacks
People like him till they find out hes unstable
He Sabu'd ya moma though a coffie table"

Dunno. Since they're wrestlers, do hey even count?

REM has a few references to wrestling in "Man on the Moon"

Fixed. :y:

In ICPs defense (even though I cant stand them) they have proven to be solid bookers (as far as treating wrestlers right) on the Indy circuit, and they pay well. Even if their shows are crap.

Weezer's El Scorcho contains something about New Jack and tables.

No specifics but Jay-Z mentions wrestling in '99 Problems', and Bowling for Soup mentions wrestling in the song 'Girls all the bad guys want' or some song like that.

40 below summer- 2 fisted
Blowing up like you knew that we would
river rat style gonna give it to you good
Running ya down when I take to extremes
whipping that ass like Austin 316

Nick Cannon Feeling Freaky:

Million Dollar thug like Ted Dibase.


Method Man

They call me Big John Studd my middle name Mudd.

That's because it's about Andy Kauffman and he wrestled..

Isn't Paul Wall's album called "The People's Champ"??

what the fuck Are all rappers wrestling fans

"Fuck Jack and Jerry Brisco"

Fuck The World by ICP...

please kill me

They're all marks for John Cena.

Ok, please don't hate me for knowing this but 5ive have a rap in 'Everybody get up'

They say stuff about Jimmy Fly Snuka and Stond Cold

"Watching Grunge leg drop New Jack through a press table"

Juelz Santana...in his song....S.A.N.T.A.N.A

He says something along the lines of....

"I do more street talking than Stone Cold Steve Austin"

I own the record and I didnt' know that.

<font color=white>Thank fuck you bought that up. Not that I knew it or anything...:shifty: </font>

Not all, but wrestling is about homosexuality, and rap is about FLAGRANT homosexuality, so you can see where there'd be a lot of overlap.

They also say "Fuck your dihheraha, Rocky Maivia"

yes... Irealize that...still a reference though ;)

Theres a Paul Wall song where he mentions Sgt. Slaughter.

Applejaxx - "Get Ready"

I got the claw hold on you like Barry Windham

Shade Shiest - Money Owners:

"From LA to Boston
I be stunnin crowds like I'm Stone Cold Austin"

Ludacris in the freestyle from Word of Mouf:

"I'mma Junkyard Dawg, I'm Rowdier than Rod Piper"

4-ize from the same song:

I pull out a stick from woodworkin
tha black Hacksaw Jim Duggan stay lurkin'"

"I'm Supafly like Snuka
I smack hoes"

Limp Bizkit's "9 Teen 90 Nine"

Lil' Flip ft. Juvenile "I Can Do Dat (Remix)"

Oh... and Skankin' Pickle put out a song called "Hulk Hogan" which is absolutely hilarious.

There's some promo lines to the song too.

These aren't really WRESTLING references, but...

Neighborhoods, "Hangin' "

"Another Goddamn Twist of Fate."

Indigo Girls, "Three Hits" uses the line "poetry in motion."

And, of course, Freddie MErcury sings in Seven Seas of Rhye, "Then I'll Get you..." Which is clearly a Boogeyman ref.
