Nothing better than an epic video package promo, their have been a few epic one's in the history of WWE. It's a thing that I feel truly shows how special pro wrestling is as an art form and a form of storytelling. My Way, an all time classic is one of the videos I can always pride myself on showing non wrestling fans on why I love it so much. It's edgy, well presented and shows the story perfectly. Music just seems to work with a well edited, and with footage that is well chosen as both an art form/a form of athletic competition. So I ask which songs would you like to get licensed and used for Video Package Promos for future Mania's (including 30), and how would you edit them to make them as epic as possible for Wrestlemania?
Money is not an option for licensing as Vince has set aside enough for you to choose whatever songs you like. The video package editor who made the My Way/Running up the Hill promos (he was mentioned in Shawns HOF speech but I can't remember his name) shall make the best promos possible with the songs with you as consultant if you would like any specific moments in the package.
You can make the package for any match you want if you feel it will happen at Wrestlemania 30, is your dream match(es) for Wrestlemania 30 or is on your card etc etc. No rules for the match you choose
I am still pissed that they didn't use the Running Up That Hill HBK/Taker II for Wrestlemania and on it's DVD. Yes the one that they ended up using at the event was decent, and was probably a hell of a lot cheaper considering it used in house created background music, but the RUTH version should have been the one that they used for Mania/DVD. All they needed to do was expand it from the one they used on Raw to show the rest of the story from EC onwards to Mania and it would have been perfect. Link to video package
Song:
Match: Daniel Bryan vs Brock Lesnar (c) WM30 WWE WH Championship. Though the song works well with Bryan and the underdog story in any matchup due to slow build up to a crescendo, so it could be done with him vs Orton, Taker, Cena etc etc
Edit:
For the first 45 seconds it shows a montage of footage throughout Bryans career from his days at HBKs school to present day (till 50sec in).
Once the womans voice comes in it shows highlights of Bryan starting at #1 to win the Rumble (till 1.24).
Once the pace starts picking up it shows Lesnar destroying Orton at Elimination Chamber putting over how much of a dominant monster he is, while overlaying with destruction he had done in the past with his career.
At 1.46 it shows the stare down zooming into Brock with him laughing, fade to black before the "WAWA" begins. Shows Brocks dominance throughout his career and the how he had knocked down Bryan constantly in the build as a monster until 1.58.
At 2.00 it shows Bryan s fighting spirit and buying footage from ROH diving into the crowd and kicking peoples heads in.
For the final minute the clips build up both of archive footage but mostly of the final build to Mania, one clip of Bryan with advantage, one clip of Brock with advantage, become quicker and quicker until it shows the stare down one final time at the final second of the song but this time a zoom into both their faces Bryan is determined and Brock looking somewhat scared.

So how would you make your video package and what song would you use?
