There have been some really memorable intro's. Flair arriving in a helicopter to face Ricky Morton in a cage. Canadian Stampede. Those are just two examples. What are the best/your favorite pre-bell intro's to a match?

Dusty vs Tully before the bell rings at Starrcade 86 is a 5 star prematch. .

Chono Vs Onita. Just all of it is glorious Crap, how did I forget this? This is easily number 1. Mannnnnnn did I ever forget about this too. I'm calling it a 3 way tie between this, Flair in the helicopter, and if you held a gun to my head and I had to remember just one, I'd probably go with Inoki at the 96 Tokyo Dome as my most memorable. The harp lady, the reaction when Inoki's real music hits, the fog. Even Vader slipping off the ramp has a certain Sasuke vs Liger Super J cup finish quality to it where the "blown spot" adds richness to the whole experience. Agree completely with mvz about the Tully/Dusty Starrcade 86 prematch shenanigans. I was also glad to see Nakamura's violin Smackdown debut mentioned because that was something I had in mind. A couple more I really like: Brody & Snuka at the 1981 Tag League when they show up with Hansen as their second. Austin vs Dude Love over the edge. All the shit with the stooges doing the intro and the Undertaker coming out. A darkhorse #1 candidate Satanico for the 10/90 El Dandy match when he came out with the women dressed up like the devil carrying pitchforks. And that time HHH dressed up like Terminator and was holding those severed terminator heads. Deserves to be mentioned really any time there's a story about HHH or just any time there's a story about anything. |

Ayumi Nakamura singing Minoru Suzuki to the ring (wearing a pirate hat and everything!) at Wrestle Kingdom 7 is another one of my favorites.

Shinsuke Nakamura doing the Michael Jackson entrance at Wrestlekingdom is pretty dope. Even my wife - who tolerates wrestling - liked it and wound up liking the match because it got her into it, so it has a soft spot in my heart.
