Good thread. I'm surprised TNA hasn't gotten into some kind of legal trouble with others as well.
Take Christian Cages music for example. It's basically an instrumental version of "My Last Breath" by Evanescence. Or Monty Brown's theme back in the day, which was extremely similar to "Down With The Sickness" by Disturbed.
Kurt Angle's current music (instrument only) is based of a song in the 70's or 80's. I can't remember the title though. Then, remember Trytan? He had what? Two matches if that? Anyway, his music was a rip off of System of a Down.
When you think about it though, WCW and WWE did the same thing. Think about Raven and DDP both knocking off Nirvana. If you listen to Stone Cold's theme it is extremely similar to 'Bad to the Bone.' The WWE tweaked the sound a bit at least.
Then there's the punch lines...
Brother Devon: Beat us if you can, SURVIVE... if we let you. (A rip off of Taz)
Christian Cage to Sting in reference to his faith: In this ring... I am God. (A rip off of Triple H talking to Shawn Michaels in reference to his faith.)
Now that I think of it. Did TNA or AAA have the 6 sided ring first?
