They are pretty much the same. Aside from the beginning effects, the main hooks of the songs are the same. If you pick a random point in both videos and play them at the same time, they'll sound damn near identical.

Elsalvajeloco Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 4 hours ago, cwoy2j said: Nah, he had kind of a 70s era Parliament Funkadelic style song. I'm pretty sure Flash's main theme (I think he had a different one briefly for his debut) is basically a ripoff of Rick James "punk funk" and the Mary Jane Girls based on the female vocals and the style of the bass line. Although, I would argue the female vocals sound more...em....Teena Marie-ish than Joanne McDuffie to say the least. P-Funk stuff (especially the Bootsy era On the One stuff from the mid 70s glory days) was way more eccentric lyrically and complex musically. Flash Funk's whole style and look is basically 1981 Street Songs Rick James. Look at the boots. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BobbyWhioux Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 a lot of this musical similarity can be attributed to one guy -- Jim Johnston -- writing most of them. Of course he's going to sound like himself from time to time. Not to mention his work is being commissioned by the same audience (i.e. Vince) all those years. also, this one always seemed the most obvious to me, so I'm a bit surprised it wasn't the first similarity mentioned here, but The Rockers' theme is Warrior's theme with 1/8th notes instead of 1/4 notes. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jstout Posted January 16, 2022 Share Posted January 16, 2022 (edited) I didn't see it - did the AEW women blade? If so, ,isn't it excusable as "good for the goose, good for the gander?" If AEW's gonna have the men bleed, then it only seems fitting to have both bleed. Now if you disapprove of it across the board, then it's easy to take the high moral ground. But it's just a different style - WWE doesn't have blood, AEW does. Edited January 16, 2022 by jstout Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, but the thing is that Vince doesn't have a moral high ground given how he had no problem with "self mutilation" when he feels like making it part of his own company's stories and matches historically. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

odessasteps Posted January 16, 2022 Share Posted January 16, 2022 Without having time to do the legwork, do we know when the last time a wwf/wwe woman did a blade job in a match? I'd presume most blood in recent times has been hardway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably the one Batista got in a lot of trouble for, during his cage match vs Jericho. Also, Vince was busted open from an Owens headbutt a few years back, but that seemed like he bladed beforehand. As for the women; didn't Lita blade in a match once? Edited January 16, 2022 by PetrolCB 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even the Brood "bloodbath" Edge did Miz and Maryse avoided using the color red. Want to say all the blood we have seen the last decade or so is hard way or straight up fake. It took them years to even just leave hard way alone as they were usually trying to get people taped up and covered before they let matches continue.
