5. The WWF Superstars - WrestleMania: The Album
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qXjYoGOEnqA Released in 1993, at the beginning of the WWFs New Generation movement, WrestleMania: The Album was a spiritual follow-up to the two previous Wrestling Albums. However, as corny as the 80s were, the early 90s in the WWF were worse. There are so many glaringly bad moments on this music release. Chief among them is a track sung entirely by Bret The Hitman Hart. Bret ends up sounding Vincent Price and the end of Thriller. In fact, hes even more frightening than Price. Everyone knows that The Hitman was never known for his wealth of charisma, but this song shows that Bret had nearly none. Other highlights of the album include the somewhat catchy, entirely terrible, Slam Jam. The song features a handful of superstars and their respective vocal stylings -- including that of the Undertaker. However, the track does have a pretty decent New Jack Swing beat. WrestleMania: The Album pales in comparison to its predecessors. Wheres Koko when you need him? And whoever thought youd need Koko?
