When WWE first debuted their giant Titantron entrance set in 1997 as Raw first became "War", it was only appropriate that one of the very first entrance videos belonged to the future face of the entire Attitude Era; "Stone Cold" Steve Austin. The Texas Rattlesnake's first entrance video was filmed amongst shards of shattered glass and broken bricks, as Austin stalked around in a threatening manner (who knew that crushing an egg in your hand could be so menacing?). The black and white footage of Austin alternated between in-ring footage of Austin beating the living tar out of his opponents, as hapless foes such as Jake Roberts, Triple H and Brian Pillman were hit with brutal flying elbows, clotheslines, and of course, a Stone Cold Stunner or two. As I mentioned at the very beginning, if the goal of an entrance video was to tell you all you needed to know about a character, this one definitely did the job. And then some. The best WWE entrance video ever, and that's the bottom line... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S5PG51XjpRk What are some of your own favorite wrestling entrance videos?
