Greater still is a memorable WrestleMania entrance to seal their spot as an icon of wrestling at the one and only ‘Showcase of the Immortals’.
In the past, we have seen Shawn Michaels fly down a zip line, dozens of John Cenas waving the real one down to the ring, and even the Bulgarian Brute, Rusev, riding a tank to the sound of the Russian national anthem.
The fervor of WrestleMania is only magnified by the outstanding unique introductions of each Superstar. We now look forward to WrestleMania 34 to see which 5 Superstars will likely steal the limelight on the way to the ring, to help forge a new legacy at the expense of The Grandest Stage Of Them All.
#1 Finn Balor
When it comes to his Demon King persona, Finn is seldom allowed to express it. The exceptions seem to be Pay-Per-View events and one-off story plots on the weekly show. With his mixture of looks and designs of his Demon character, Balor has the opportunity to express a magnitude of ideas for his entrance at Wrestlemania.
Either of his opponents could easily be on this list. But with his return to WWE after his injury last year, and his debut at WrestleMania, The Demon King looks set to steal the show.
#2 Triple H and Stephanie McMahon
Let’s face it, Triple H always manages to sell himself at WrestleMania, albeit most of his entrances seem to encapsulate his King of Kings gimmick. From his Barbarian-esque throne rise at Wrestlemania 22 to his accompaniment by skull-faced demons at WrestleMania 32, the cerebral assassin manages to provoke an unstoppable image of his ability in the ring.
Furthermore, Stephanie’s place at Triple H’s side, particularly at the last couple of WrestleManias, seems to stamp the message that they are the King and Queen of the WWE. Stephanie walked to the ring alongside Triple H at WrestleMania 32, and she rode on the back of The Game’s motorbike at WrestleMania 33.
Now that they are both in a match together, it seems the regnal duo may likely appear side by side on thrones as a message that they run the WWE.
#3 Shinsuke Nakamura
Ever since his debut at NXT, the King of Strong Style has cemented his place on this list. With his unusual charming charisma and unbelievably catchy entrance music, Nakamura has captured the hearts of the WWE Universe.
Part of the reason is thanks to NXT, which in recent years has taken a bold step by introducing a multitude of unique entrances. With its increased stature and prowess behind the main roster, NXT takeover events can flaunt new and incredible ways to walk to the ring. Thus Nakamura, as we know him now, was born, and his inevitable path to the main roster was set.
At his debut on Smackdown Live, it seemed all the emphasis of Nakamura’s character was embodied in his entrance to the ring, and the WWE wanted the audience to know exactly who ‘The Artist’ was.
At his debut WrestleMania, it seems unimaginable that Nakamura will glide to the ring without a unique sense of style and panache good enough for the ages.
#4 Charlotte Flair
Charlotte Flair has already managed a very spectacular entrance at WrestleMania. Both echoing her father’s entrance at WrestleMania 24, and trumping it with even more finesse and grandeur, Charlotte has managed to seal her destiny as one of the greatest competitors in the squared circle.
Charlotte has a big challenge ahead of her in the form of an undefeated Asuka. It looks to be one of the highlights of the night, and that is after minuscule promotion over the last few weeks. It seems like AJ Styles vs Nakamura and Flair vs Asuka are just already on everybody’s list.
Regardless of the result, this is one of Charlotte Flair’s biggest matches in her career, and therefore it would be hard to imagine she is not encompassed in a blaze of jubilation and magnificence that once encapsulated the nature of her father whenever he would make his way to the ring.
#5 The Undertaker
OK, so we don’t know if The Undertaker will definitely compete at WrestleMania 34. But it would seem crazy to leave ‘The Phenom’ off the list. Rarely does his entrance comprise of anything different regardless of the venue, yet every time he walks to the ring he sends spines tingling.
Apart from his American Badass persona, The Undertaker has gained the awe of the entire WWE universe for his commitment to his character, and his chilling Deadman entrance that is iconic not only to WrestleMania but to the WWE and even wrestling.
Watching The Undertaker will never get old. As long as people continue to believe in his character and respect him for being one of the greatest in-ring performers of all time, we can still expect amazing moments for years to come. Can we all just hope that he makes his appearance, and once again stirs the audience for at least one more bittersweet parade of the Deadman.
