WWE Forceable Entry Review

Posted by Cody Webster on 10.08.2002

Damn! Now what name is R. Kelly going to use for his comeback album?

From the very start WWE pushes away from the teenage fan base. Seriously, can you imagine a typical homophobe boy buying this album at the local CD store? What if the clerk happen to be a hot chick, forget about it. That boy would rather get a Kenny G album than be caught with an album named Forceable Entry. Or what about Don and Harold? They thought wrestling was finally accepting their gay fan base, only to shudder in disgust after hearing about Stacey Kiebler's legs. They'll exchange it for some Elton John later in the week. WWE really do have a double edged sword with the name.

Then you have the problem of filling an album with full version songs, the same songs you use for 30 second themes. WWE reinforces the songs in short form throughout their programs, thus giving me a short attention span for the songs. Now we get four minutes songs that we've been trained to listen to for 30 seconds, oh goodie.

With the above said, it is now time to move on to the content, the songs. 1 to 10 ratings, comments, and whatever else.

1. The Game - Drowning Pool: HHH was probably asking how thick Kid Rock and Scott Stapp hair is, "Okay, put my song first. We'll put Mr. Rock's song second since he has pretty stringy hair, right? Trust me, Stapp's song couldn't carry a CD like my song can. Scott would of also been blinded of the prize with those thick locks in front of his face. I have very nice fine hair that allows me to see."

Anyway, loud whispering all around, if there is such a thing. I could see kids walking around while playing this, most likely thinking they're the shit. In other words: A nice ego fuck for anyone who listens to it. I could totally see old people power walking to this stuff. 6

2. Legs - Kid Rock: ZZ Top is rolling in their graves, just to test them out. If she has hair all the way down to her fanny you can keep her. Somewhere it all goes haywire. Scratching records by the dozens. It goes on and on. He's done better. 4

3. Young Grow Old - Creed: Why this typical Creed CD filler? WWE should of really shelled out the extra bucks for My Sacrifice. Random fact: This was used at Backlash. Nothing much to add. 3

4. Glass Shatters - Disturbed: The song that helped to define Stone Cold's edge. The glass shattering is the best wrestling entrance ever. It still gives me visions of Vince doing that bug eyed "I shit my pants" look. Sloppy, grungy sounding vocals never sounded this good. 8

5. Rollin' (Dead Man Walking Remix)- Limp Bizkit: Nu-metal or just another white rapper? Maybe both. Defiantly a song that got over played by MTV and the Radio. A good chorus always does wonders for a song. It was nice of them to alter their song for Taker (adding motorcycle sounds), but doesn't that make it like version 586 of this song? 6

6. Whatever - Our Lady Peace: Creepy beginning Has a really cool on/off beat to it, and the high spots are pretty awesome as well. I always hear praise everywhere I go for this band, and you can see why. Nice intense song, for an intense wrestler. 7

7. Never Gonna Stop (The Black Cat Crossing Mix) - Rob Zombie: Heh, that girl who says "Give it to me" sounds a lot like the lead singer from the band Garbage. I'll give it to her ... if she takes visa. I swear this song will give you a headache. If I wanted my ears to bleed I would have jammed them with an ice pick, thank you very much. Yeah, you'll stop now, buddy. 3

8. One Of A Kind - Breaking Point: Really neato techno start. This is what Green Day would sound like if they went nu-metal. The Chorus of fans screaming "Hey!" gives it a nice feel. It fits RVD well. Exactly, RVD isn't your average mean, intense wrestler, he's one of a kind. Goes out the same way it started. 8

9. The Beautiful People (Remix) - Marilyn Manson: Fun Fact: I wrote a parody to this one called, "The Beautiful Peephole." Sounds like someone didn't have too much fun in high school. The whispered lyrics sound pretty spiteful towards ignorant people, more so than Beautiful People, or maybe he's suggesting beautiful people are ignorant. A fun song from everyone's favorite freak (not Kane). 7

10. Across The Nation - The Union Underground: For some reason this gives me flash backs of Rage Against The Machine. I can see why this is the RAW theme. A good wake up call song. 6

11. Break The Walls Down - Sevendust: Really poppy start, at first I thought this was Lita's theme. A lot of rhyming, which is good. It gets silly when they say, "Jericho's on your ass, way to fast, your ass is grass," Mommy, what is Jericho doing on that other guy's ass? Close your eyes children! It gets worse when the singer talks about wrestling in the ring, and utters something about going up top, sucka. It had a good start, but then it parts. 3

12. Turn The Tables - Saliva: I hate this. Its an American Gladiator theme wanna be. Rap and wrestling don't go together, Master P and Ron Killings anyone? OR how about P.N. News? I do think they do a good job at shouting: Get the tables! Kinda sad when they say the Dudz would be doing this until the end of time (They were broken up in the WWE draft). 4

13. Live For The Moment - Monster Magnet: A song with a story, which is pretty cool. Hard hitting stuff. Some old man says the Hardy Boyz will die, so their still hitting swanton bombs and leg drops from the top rope. That's right, burn your candle at both ends. The loud parts are loud and the quiet parts are relaxing story time, excellent format. Fake out ending at the 2:40 mark, it goes on to be a 5 minute song after that. 7

14. End Of Everything - Stereomud: Raven scowls at the start I like this song. It has this cool shady dark feel to it.

Have you ever been afraid of someone? I've never been afraid of no one.

Man, that captures Raven to a tee. Too bad he isn't on RAW enough for it to get some serious air play. Funny, usually a new theme means a fresh push. Go figure. 7

15. Ride Of Your Life - Neurotica: Generic nu metal song. Did someone say: "Digdigitybob?" Put this puppy to bed already. 1

16. Just Another Victim - Cypress Hill: Heartbeat into a flatline to start. I forgot this song even had words. Corny rhyming. Michael Cole and Joey Styles samples. I miss Styles. Song does have a nice beat. 6

17. No Chance - Dope: Its like the original No Chance song on roids. Perfect example of a song that shouldn't go over 30 seconds. I got no chance in hell ... of giving this anything above a five. 4 - Booyah!

18. Lovefurypassionenergy - Boy Hits Car: What the hell? Nu-metal is pushed in almost every song, and they go out with this? This weak pice of crap! Is that a girl or a boy singing? And with one song WWE destroys what they were going for. It's almost like pushing a guy to the moon, then have him stop dead in his tracks when some old fart won't job. I would rather slide down a blade buck naked with rubbing alcohol poured on me than ever hear this again. Vince should have gotten "Beautiful Day" to close out the album ... cheap bastard. Minus a million
