7 Ups And 9 Downs From Last Night's WWE Raw (Oct 17)
3. An 8-Bit Entrance
For those who grew up playing video games in the 80s and early 90s, it’s hard not to thoroughly enjoy TJ Perkins’ entrance music and video display.
The music for Perkins’ entrance could easily have come from an old Nintendo game as the hero makes his way through a level at a frenzied pace. The video boards show a gamer choosing TJP as their avatar, and then runs through the typical video game prompts asking Player 1 if s/he is ready, noting that Perkins has max health, max strength and max agility.
After years and years of WWE entrance themes sounding way too similar and indistinguishable (save for a handful of them), it’s awesome to hear something so completely different, and it’s even better that it immediately takes viewers back to their childhood with a cool and unique theme.
