Besides possessing a good finishing move and the ability to work the microphone, making a big arena entrance in pro wrestling goes a long way in defining a star's persona. Whether using pyrotechnics or brain-numbing light ... more »shows, a wrestler's goal is simply to shoot electricity through a crowd. Equally important is each wrestler's choice of theme music; if chosen correctly, you can say a wrestler's name and a fan will immediately hear the theme song in their heads (ask any wrestling fan Triple H or the Rock's theme song and they'll be able to hum a few bars). So popular have these tunes become that the WWE has put together a compilation of 10 extended videos of their most popular wrestlers' theme songs. The videos aren't much to look at (a montage of wrestling clips), but some of the tunes are infectious in a nu-metal sort of way. You get Triple H, the Rock, Undertaker, Mr. McMahon, Kane, Chris Jericho, Edge, Kurt Angle, the Hurricane, and Billy and Chuck. Put it on shuffle and practice your own entrance. --Dave McCoy« less

""WWE: The Videos, Volume I, Ramped Up" features the TitanTron entrance videos for 10 of the WWE's top/near top acts. The entrance videos are those that are played during the WWE Superstars ring entrances. Overall, while the concept of the entrance videos being released is cool and should be a collector's item for THE MOST HARDCORE of WWE fans, the actual product can safely be called disappointing.THE ENTRANCE VIDEOSThe DVD features the entrance videos (in their entirety with new footage) for the following superstars:1. HHH (of course)2. Hurricane3. The Undertaker (most recent theme and video)4. The Rock5. Billy and Chuck6. Mr. McMahon7. Kane (old theme)8. Y2J Chris Jericho9. Edge (old video and theme "You Think You Know Me," not Rob Zombie)10. Kurt AngleTHE CRITICISM:While I was glad to see that WWE decided to release their Superstar entrance videos on DVD and looked forward to receiving this, I was VERY disappointed to discover how very few videos were on here and how short the DVD is. This DVD runs only 30 minutes long (about 3 minutes per video) and it contains no extras!... This is strictly for the most dedicated of WWE collectors/aficionados.THE VERDICT:Save your money folks. ...Easily the worst WWE video release ever.Avoid"

"It's really hard to describe this DVD simply because it mostly depends on how much of a WWE fan you are. If you are a hardcore fan like me then this DVD is right up your alley with new songs not previously released. If you are not really a big fan then I wouldn't buy this simply because it probably won't hold your interest. The content of this DVD includes:
1-Triple H entrance
2-The Hurricane entrance
3-The Undertaker (new one) entrance
4-The Rock entrance
5-Billy+Chuck entrance
6-Mr. McMahon entrance (same song, new video)
7-Kane (old entrance, not the Forceable Entry song or video)
8-Chris Jericho entrance
9-Edge entrance (it's not the Rob Zombie song but his new video)
10-Kurt Angle entrance"
Is the WWE serious?!

"When I first heard about the title of this DVD, it sounded kind of cool as I thought that they would have old and new titantron videos like the old D-Generation X, Steve Austin, Shawn Michaels, Undertaker, and The Rock videos. Unfortunately, I was let down in a huge way. First of all, there are only 10 entrance videos! Just 10! No DVD extras, nothing! For anyone who's interested, here is the entrance video list:The Rock
Vince McMahon
Kane
Chris Jericho
Edge
Kurt Angle
The HurricaneBilly and Chuck
Triple H
The UndertakerWhile this is not a bad line up, the WWE should realize that instead of paying [money]for the DVD. People could just as easily go to their website and download these videos. I strongly discourage anyone to buy this."
Good but it could be a helluva lot better!!

"I was buying this just to see the clips much like you see on Raw and Smackdown and here's my opinion about it, so here we go:Triple H: 5/5 Not just because he is my favorite wrestler but the music was great and the clips were unbelieveable.
The Rock: 4/5 Shocked that it was the latest version before he turned heel being that the Anthology was a more "rocky" version of it.
Undertaker: 4/5 Doesn't have his new song but still the music fittes with the clips. Just wished it had him holding the American Flag after Summerslam 2002 rather then him pushing Lita off the ring.
Mr. McMahon: 5/5 NO CHANCE IN HELL!!!! Much like Triple H's, great all the way around.
Kane: 2/5 Not his latest music or clips. I'd skip it.
Chris Jericho: 5/5 WOW! Only thing missing is the fireworks.
Edge: 1/5 Very disappointing. Expecting Rob Zombie and you get "You think you know me". What a waste!
Kurt Angle: 1/5 Its missing something really important. THE THREE I's. Intelligence, Intergity and Intensity, and it was lacking in this one. Oh yeah? HE HAS HAIR!!!! Show the Bald Angle!
The Hurricane: 3/5 Actually a shocker. I was impressed with this one. STAND BACK, YOU'LL LIKE THIS ONE!!
Billy and Chuck: 0/5 What are they doing there. It was released and they have "broken up" for a long time. Having RVD's or Chris Benoit's theme would had been better.Hope this helps!! And remember, the Game is Forever!"
Save your money

"I thought this video was ok. I was surprised that Edge's "You think you know me" replaced "Rob Zombie's "Never Gonna Stop". I was glad that Taker got rid of that annoying "Rollin', Rollin', Rollin'" music. I hated the fact that Billy and Chuck's was on there. The Rock's "If Ya Smelll" was also featured, as well as Hurricane's titantron. Thriple H's "Time to Play the Game" also on there. I was dissapointed that Kane's new theme "Slow Chemical" was not featured. The others were Vince McMahon, Kurt Angle For the most part not a very impressive line-up. Don't buy."
