Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. Here's an easy one...who entered to 'Pomp and Circumstance'?

Answer: Randy Savage

The 'Macho Man' followed the lead of 'Gorgeous' George Wagner, who used it earlier. Adrian Street actually wrote his own entrance music.

2. 'Another One Bites The Dust' - Queen:

Answer: Junk Yard Dog

The late Sylvester Ritter ran amuck through the Mid-South area with his dog chain. Later he used George Clinton's 'Atomic Dog'.

3. 'Tom Sawyer' - Rush:

Answer: Kerry Von Erich

The late Von Erich (real name Kerry Atkinson) was known as the 'Modern Day Warrior', heard in the lyrics.

4. 'Smooth Operator' - Sade:

Answer: Rick Rude

Yet another late and greatly lamented talent, the 'Ravishing One' (real name Rick Rood), later used a variation of David Rose's 'The Stripper' in his move to the WWF.

5. 'Iron Man' - Black Sabbath:

Answer: The Road Warriors

The indomitable Hawk (Mike Hegstrand) and Animal (Joe Laurinaitis), led by former wrestler-turned-manager-turned-Iditarod competitor Paul Ellering.

Answer: Sid Vicious

Vicious (Sid Eudy) used this partly while disguised as Lord Humongous, then later as his own theme. Callous went on to later fame as the Undertaker.

7. 'Chase' - Giorgio Moroder:

Answer: The Midnight Express

'Chase' was one of Moroder's pieces from the film 'Midnight Express'. Probably the best variation of the Express, led by the bombastic Jim Cornette, consisted of Dennis Condrey and Bobby Eaton. Stan Lane replaced Condrey in a later teaming.

8. Another easy one...Lynyrd Skynyrd's 'Free Bird'

Answer: The Freebirds

Michael 'P.S.' Hays, Terry 'Bam Bam' Gordy and Buddy 'Jack' Roberts waged a non-stop war with the Von Erichs in the World Class Wrestling area. Later, Hayes recored his own theme...remember 'Badstreet, USA'?

9. 'Still Of The Night' - Whitesnake:

Answer: 'Hollywood' John Tatum

Another star in the World Class stable, Tatum was one of the first to be managed by Missy Hyatt. Adam's claim to fame was teacher to the future 'Stone Cold' Steve Austin.

Answer: The Rock And Roll Express

Ricky Morton and Robert Gibson used such songs as Kiss' 'Rock and Roll All Nite', ELO's 'Rock And Roll Is King' and Joan Jett's 'I Love Rock And Roll', among others.

11. A toughie...'In The Flesh?' - Pink Floyd:

Answer: Jake Roberts

The introduction to 'The Wall' was also the introduction to 'The Snake' in his early days. Yurkov went on to bigger fame as Bam Bam Bigelow.

12. 'Stars And Stripes Forever' - J.P. Sousa:

Answer: Jim Duggan

Duggan, a former member of the infamous 'Rat Pack' with Ted DiBiase and Matt Bourne, made a face turn with the arrival of Gen. Skandar Akbar's 'Devastation Inc.'. Incidentally, the late 'Capt. Redneck' Dick Murdoch also used this theme occasionally.

13. 'Also Sprach Zarathustra':

Answer: Ric Flair

That music will always be intertwined in the hearts of the hardcore wrestling fan an belonging to the 'Nature Boy'.

14. 'Dragon Attack' - Queen:

Answer: Rick Steamboat

Should have been easy for the 'Dragon'.

15. Finally, what song closed out 'WWF Saturday Night Main Event' on NBC?

Answer: 'Take Me Home'

A rather appropriate closer from Phil Collins.
