I had forgotten this existed (it was over 15 years ago after all), but around 1995-96, WWF recorded a song for an album that featured the Mountain King himself, Jon Oliva. I remember them showing a video promoting it on the show and found it on youtube. Somehow this song ended up in my music library recently so I'd thought I'd share it with the Jon Oliva fans who never liked wrestling and might not have been aware of it and almost certainly never saw the video (also apparently Scott Ian and Kenny from Type O Negative were part of the song as well):



The video quality is not great (probably made from someone's VHS footage) but a neat part of metal and pro-wrestling history (two of my top forms of entertainment).

I have the track in mp3 format, but I'd never seen the video!

Scott Ian's in the video. Is that Mike Starr, too?

Never heard the song before, so that's cool. I give it 3 Boston Crabs out of 5.

Upon reading the thread title I became excited thinking that Jon oliva had signed up to be a new wrestling superstar. He certainly has the bulk to compete with those guys lol.

Disappointingly this was not the case Sad

Did you forget that the only WWF these days is the World Wildlife Fund?
