To some, an album of pop songs sung by professional wrestlers may seem like an even worse idea than Magic Johnson hosting a late-night talk show. Any real Wrestlemania fan, however, knows that these properly pumped bruisers and their coiffed and curvy counterparts are as much entertainers as they are athletes.
On WWE ORIGINALS, each wrestler performs a song appropriate to his or her image and talents. In most cases, the results are not only competent; they're downright enjoyable. Rey Mysterio delivers a Latin hip-hop number that recalls the raps of Cypress Hill's B-Real, while Booker T's effort is pure West Coast G-Funk, served up in a booming, Chuck D-style baritone. On the pop/rock side of the fence, the listener is treated to Lita slurring her way through a Runaways-esque, attitude-filled bubble-gum rocker, while Trish Stratus croons a piano-based pop confection that wouldn't sound out of place on a Jewel album. In addition, the disc features genuinely funny Stone Cold Steve Austin comedy bits that follow his interaction with a hapless recording engineer. With a refreshing lack of pretense, WWE ORIGINALS succeeds for the same reason the WWE always has: It's loads of fun. WWE Originals Music Review Average Rating: (4.2 out of 5 stars)    List All Reviews WWE Originals rule! I just received my wwe originals cd in the mail today and I LOVE it. John Cena's song was awesome and so was Eddie and Chavo Guerrero's, but my absolute fave was Rey Mysterio's Crossing Borders, the song is off the hook and Rey did an excellent job, his mic skills are amazing. Thanks cd universe for this cd, I had been looking all over for it and was so happy to finally get it! Submitted by Rey Mysterio's Girl (Mi. USA)  Was This Review Helpful?

| | John Cena You Can't See Me CD (2005)
WWE Originals CD music
$8.99 It's easy to dismiss athletes who claim to be musicians, particularly if said jocks are professional wrestlers. But World Wrestling Entertainment grappler John Cena's recording debut, YOU CAN'T SEE ME, is an impressive foray into the world of hip-hop. Rap fan Cena boasts an organic flow that seems far beyond any shtick concocted during a marketing session. Backed by Tha Trademarc, he bobs and weaves among funky samples of KRS-One, Killah Priest, and Eric Clapton throughout the home-city shout-out "Beantown," and rocks a West Coast groove on the thumping "Summer ...

WWE Originals music CDs
$10.65 One of the last hip-hop veterans standing, with many platinum albums and leading film roles to his credit, LL Cool J has taken the art form to a higher level than the music industry could have ever imagined back when he "rocked the bells" in 1985. Still sporting his battle rhyme style, LL returns with yet another classic album, G.O.A.T. (Greatest Of All Time).
His collaborations on this album show that LL's very aware of the current hip-hop audience, teaming up with Mobb Deep's ...
| | Gang Of Four Solid Gold/Another Day/Another Dollar CD (1996)
WWE Originals songs
$9.25 Gang of Four's existence had as much to do with Slave and Chic as it did the Sex Pistols and the Stooges, which is something Solid Gold demonstrates more than Entertainment! Any smartypants can point out the irony of a band on Warner Bros. railing against systematic tools of control disguised as entertainment media, but Gang of Four were more observational than condescending. True, Jon King and Andy Gill might have been hooting and hollering in a semiviolent and discordant fashion, but they were saying "think about it" more than "you lot are a bunch of mindless puppets." Abrasiveness was a means to grab the listener, and it worked. Reciting Solid Gold's lyrics on a local neighborhood corner might get a couple interested souls to pay attention. It isn't poetry, and it's no fun; most within earshot would just continue power-walking or tune out while buffing the SUV. Solid Gold has that unholy racket going on beneath the lyrics, an unlikely mutation of catchiness and atonality that made ears perk and (oddly) posteriors shake. With its slightly ironic title, Solid Gold is more rhythmically grounded than the fractured nature of Entertainment!, a politically charged, more Teutonic take on funk. It's a form of release for paranoid accountants. Financial concerns form the basis of the subject matter; the hilarious but realistic "Cheeseburger" is a highlight with its thinly veiled snipe at America: "No classes in the U.S.A./Improve yourself, the choice is yours/Work at your job and make good pay/Make friends, great/Buy them a beer!" This is a nickel less spectacular than the debut, but owning one and not the other would be criminal. [Solid Gold was reissued in 1995 on Warner ...
