When you think of epic entrances, you might recall state arrivals or my walk to the podium for a big speech. But let me tell you, none of that holds a candle to Rhea Ripley’s entrance at WWE WrestleMania 40. Picture this: metalcore titans Motionless in White setting the stage ablaze (figuratively, of course) with a live rendition of “Demon In Your Dreams” as Ripley strides to defend her WWE Women’s World Championship.
Chris Motionless didn’t just stop at cranking out tunes; he doubled as the ring announcer for Ripley. That’s like having Bruce Springsteen introduce legislation at Congress – it’s just that epic.
Ripley’s theme song, a battle hymn for the modern gladiator, debuted back when she turned heel and hopped aboard The Judgment Day’s ride. She mentioned once that getting Motionless in White to play live was a dream deferred at WrestleMania 39 due to scheduling conflicts. Well, dreams do come true, folks, and this one came to life in Philadelphia, confirming all those whispers that they were in town for the spectacle.
This wasn’t just an entrance; it was a statement. A declaration that Rhea Ripley isn’t just here to play; she’s here to dominate, with the same determination I use to find my sunglasses. And with Motionless in White backing her up, it’s clear this wasn’t just another walk to the ring. It was a march to victory, or at least, a darn impressive way to start the show.
