Synopsis

Amazon.com
These days entertainment is all about synergy and cross-merchandising baby, from the "free" toys at the burger joint to the pay-per-view rights, soundtrack CD, T-shirt sales, and cereal endorsements, et al. The wrestling establishment has become increasingly savvy at such activity, and this CD would seem to be the culmination of this marketing ethos. WCW Mayhem brings together new and exclusive tracks from some of the hottest hip-hop (Cypress Hill, Lyrical Giants), metal (Metallica, Slayer), and hip-hop-metal acts (Kid Rock, ICP) as well as the entrance themes for the hottest WCW superstars (from Goldberg to the Nitro Girls). Does it deliver? Hell yeah; this disc is as rowdy and entertaining, boastful and testosterone-fueled as the sport that it celebrates. --Mike McGonigal

Not even made for Wrestling Fans

"If your looking to buy some Clear and Complete Wrestling Themes like Randy Savage,Hulk Hogan,nWo Wolfpack.Then this CD is not it!It does have it on their but each officail Wrestlers entrance is only 1:00 long thats it!Its not even complete.But they have some Themes from other Artists and were never used,like some from Kid Rock and Limp bizkit (which both suck hard time)I was hoping for some Wrestlers themes like Erenst Miller,Lex Luger.The only CLEAR and Complete Wrestlers themes are the following *Sting - Seek and Destroy *Creative Control - Loose (Very cool) *Vampiro OLD - Take it (ICP also very cool) *Terry Funk - Fist Full *KonnanThats it,everything else on the CD Sucks.Please dont get this CD and wait until WCW can come out with WCW The Music vol 1,because I cant handle this.Whats next Backstreet boys?HELL NO!Save Your Money on this one,this was NOT made for wrestling fans,trust me"

"I regret I did not read the reviews here before I got this CD. Being a diehard WWF wrestling fan I was hoping this CD follows up on the legacy of the WWR volume music series. Instead of focusing on wrestlers' entrance themes, they incorporate a lot of songs from various rock/rap artists. Even worst is that each of those theme songs are around a minute long! Plus some theme's background have the voices of Tony Schiavone and Bobby Heenan (WHY? )! I find this CD more a promotional item and it is for diehard WCW fans only."
Cheap Imitation - bottom line !

"Not a patch of the WWF quality type of music cd . The highlights of the Cd are not the wrestlers themes but the artists like metallica,megadeth,kid rock etc ( Shouldn't you showscase your wrestlers first ? ) . Nearly all the wrestlers music is under 80 seconds ! and has heenan and fat tony talking at the start etc like on the tv show ! . This has been a wasted opportunity for WCW and the people behind wwf vol.4 will be laughing their heads off at the comparison . Only the most die-hard wrestling fan should bother getting this at all - very disappointing. One other thing ... why wasn't The Cat or Disco inferno on the Cd ?"
