My two biggest loves are wrestling and music. The two things are very similar. Wrestling can be and mean anything just like music can. A feud I love may not excite another fan, just like my favorite album might not be my friend’s cup of tea. But more than that, a lyric I interpret to mean one thing can mean something completely different to someone else and i might obsess over a certain promo for months while other people just move on. It’s magic, it’s…. Everything.
This leads me to my new project, a series of articles under the name “Tag Teaming Tunes.” Each article will feature a wrestler, a promo, or a wrestling event and a song or album I connect with said wrestler, promo, or event. The goal is to introduce a new kind of content for this website and hopefully spark some inspiration and creativity from other people in the process. Articles will vary in length and release times, but the purpose of each is simple: to think about wrestling in a different way. I’ve talked at great length about how connections are the most important part of wrestling, and nothing is better than a connection you can make with something else that means a lot to you. Some songs may repeat and some wrestlers and moments may have multiple pieces of music connected to them, but each one of these connections means something. I’m very excited and invested in this idea and I hope you all are too. Keep your eye out of the first edition of “Tag Teaming Tunes!”
