Remember when this song was being referenced all the time in wrestling circa 1993/1994?

I'm sure someone told Vince that this the new "in" thing and with that, he envisioned two guys in Barney the dinosaur pajamas wrestling to the crowd chants.

And then Men On A Mission had to reference it every damn time they came out to the point that they pretty much killed it’s brief relevance

I remember the song being a big thing in WCW, probably because Tag Team was from Atlanta. Fans chanted it during events and brought signs with the song title on it; at one show the commentators even acknowledged one.
Jesse - Whoomp There It Is, huh Tony?
Tony - Boy that’s everywhere.

Absolutely, this can't be overstated. Watch a random WCW Saturday Night from 1993 and they'll be coming back from commercial and the crowd unprompted will just be chanting "Whoomp! There it Is!"

That song was referenced EVERYwhere, though. Yup, I remember the first season of Sister, Sister, there's a talent show at the school, they show a montage of people trying out, about 80% are terrible versions of Whoomp! There it is! It made a comeback around, I think 7-8 years ago. It must have been sampled in something, because every music festival that summer, people were singing it without knowing the words at random points. Me and my people would be getting drinks, then suddenly a crowd spending 10 minute going "Whoomp! Ayyayyayyy!"

During Battlebowl that year they start loudly chanting "Whoomp There It Is!" due to the excitement of Sting and Ron Simmons having to go toe to toe.

Felt like it was referenced bizarrely often in 90's comics, as well. I remember seeing the title for the song in two or three different comic books (I began reading in 1996) before I knowingly heard the song as a kid.

I think even Heenan referenced it during a match in WCW or WWF.
