If I'm playing the face, "Strychnine" by the Brandos or "Welcome to the Freakshow" by DC Talk. If I'm a heel, "Body Count" by Body Count would be my top choice but I might also use "99 Ways to Die" by Megadeth.

A wife with a copy of CIV III and her third different bar exam in as many years is a bad combination. "Verhoeven's _Starship Troopers_: Based on the back cover of the book by Robert Heinlein."
I'd possibly use "I Don't Care About You" by Fear or maybe "Damaged" by Black Flag. "Eliminator" or whatever the name is by Agnostic Front would be cool if I was a face. For real HEEL heat, I'd use "Brainwash" by Flipper. Hell, I'd use it no matter what.
*plays "Brainwash" when entering any room from now on*
If I had to choose one with out lyrics, I'd go with "El Distortio del Melodica" by Everclear. But, as the trend seems to require lyrics, I'd go with "Enemy" by Disturbed.

Well here's what I came up with as a budding young wrestling fan many years ago...
Mine is a variation on Eurythmic's "Missionary Man" because that's the character I would portray "From Brigham City, Utah...The Missionary Man!").
I would be a damn creepy "Undertaker"-looking guy in a black hat and trenchcoat carrying a big black book that had "THE BOOK" embossed in gold on the front. THE BOOK, of course, would sit in the corner like Al Snow's mannequin head until I needed to bash somebody's skull with it. What was written inside the book would never be revealed. (But I think it would have made a nifty wrestler autograph book. How cool would THAT be!) And I'd build my reputation on cutting some wicked promos that totally messed with everybody's heads.
(Yes I WAS a Jake the Snake fan. WHAT ABOUT IT?!?)
Actually, if they ever move Kane on, that would be a great character for him to play.

I did something similar. Since I'm from Louisiana my character was sort of Lash LeRoux on crack... an insane cajun. Which means my music would be "Zydeco Gris-Gris" by Beausoleil.
But for the real me I'd use Fear Factory's "Digimortal," X-Japan's "Dear Loser," or something I wrote myself :)

"If All The World Hated Me" by Flight 16. Not a great song, but has a beginning which is great for an entrance.
"Disillusioned words like bullets bark as human gods aim for their mark Made everything from toy guns that spark to flesh-colored Christs that glow in the dark It's easy to see without looking too far That not much is really sacred." - Bob Dylan
I'd use a little song called "Iron Clad Lou" by Hum. Most of the time I'd have it come in at about 1:37 when the drums kick in, but if I was main-eventing 'Mania, I'd demand that the little acoustic guitar at the beginning be left in.

Great thread, this. I can't narrow it down to one, so here are a few ideas:
For high-energy entrance with a fast run into the ring: "Dynamite" - Scorpions "Nothing's Gonna Stand In Our Way" - Spectre General "Fuel" - Metallica "So Far Away" - Goo Goo Dolls
For the dark, brooding, heel entrances: "Dirty Black Summer" - Danzig "Snakes of Christ" - Danzig "Disposable Teens" - Marilyn Manson "Lucretia My Reflection" - Sisters of Mercy "Sweet Dreams" - Marilyn Manson "DreamEvil" - Dio
"HOLY CRAP! A wuvluv is in my house." - Dean Rasmussen

The first thing that struck me about going to see Loretta Lynn was that everyone seemed to think it was a bad idea. I'd tell my friends that I was going, and I'd inevitably get a reaction that said, in so many words, "ew, why?
