I don't care what the majority says, I'm with Savior on this one, it's definitely "Stay in the back."

So what if he doesn't say it in his god damn interviews? Does Jericho always say "Break down the walls!" in his interviews? No. Does Benoit ever say "There's no holding me back" in his? No. Hell, HBK doesn't even refer to himself as a sexy boy anymore, and it's still in his music.

The Hurricane may say "Stand back!" in his promos, but that's because he's talking to someone who's right in front of him, so he's telling them to stand back. Imagine how ridiculous it would be for him to say "Stay in the back" during a promo.

Hurricane: Stay in the back, Coach! There's a hurricane comin' through!

Coach: But... we ARE in the back, Hurricane.

Hurricane: ....so we are. WHATS-UP-WIT-DAT?!

I think his music's "Stay in the back!" refers to his opponents, who should stay backstage, as opposed to coming to the ring to get their ass kicked by the mother****in' Hurricane.

Jesus. That was idiotic.

First, Michaels is going to stick with the same music, whether or not he still calls himself a sexy boy. It's been his music for over a decade, except during DX. You do you really think it's going to change now?

Jericho's music was established before his character was really developed. They stuck with it.

Benoit's music didn't have lyrics until crosspromotion. Half those songs have nothing to do with the wrestlers involved.

Now, with Jericho and Michaels, the songs were tied to the gimmick. Chris had the WALLS OF JERICHO, and HBK's whole gimmick was the HEARTBREAK KID (Sexy Boy). Both work. The only example that doesn't is the one for a promotion. Hurricane DOES say "Stand Back" in his promos, and with the tendency to tie in their gimmicks to the music in some way, it makes no sense to continue hammering away that it's really "stay in the back!" Occam's razor, baby. It makes no sense to overrationalise what is very obviously a conflict of accents.

Whatever, bitch.

I was proving the point that the argument that "because he never says 'Stay in the Back' it means the opening words can't be 'Stay in the Back'" is invalid.

I then used Jericho, Benoit and Michaels as examples. I didn't say that their music is stupid because they don't say the words that are used in their music, I was merely proving that catchphrases have nothing to do with entrance music.

Your examples, however, were counterproductive to their own "logic."

Why?

Let's see...

Jericho's theme says "Stopped and dropped by the Walls of Jericho." Guess what Chris' finisher is? The entire song has lyrics dealing with the Walls of Jericho.

Shawn Michaels...Let's see...He's using the music that's associated with him. People still associate the Heartbreak Kid with "Sexy Boy." I don't know why.

Benoit...The odd man out...And I've already explained why.

The sad thing is that this is the same thing I mentioned last time. You were too thick to understand the first time, and construed my meaning as something completely different. I don't know why I'm bothering, since I doubt you'll be more likely to understand it a second time through.
