This is pro wrestling. The theater. The crowd. The atmosphere. The man who was supposed to be just a joke, but through talent and heart, connected with the audience and they made him a bonafide star. This is pro wrestling.
It the timing of Goldberg theme into the lyrics whilst slowly just having madonna on it own wonder how many times they edited it before they did it live
He could be awesome in any company with the same booking he gets in ICW. Have seen him LIVE he is over as they get if it were an art form he'd have it perfected.
I showed this to my buddy who isn't a wrestling fan and he was smiling ear to ear the whole entire time. Grado made a new fan just from the entrance alone
I didn't knew grado until a few weeks, damn I never watched ICW, and I gotta said, first time that I saw the guy a smile came to my face and I couldn't stop cheering for the guy. He's like the perfect babyface, likable just watching him doing his entrance
Our show is available in parts of the US on The Fight Network. New episode every week. We are always looking to exand on to new channels as well though.
+Nick Morton debateable in ww1, ww2 has an incredibly strong argument, but the axis would have never been able to outproduce the allied forces, not to mention Hitlers idocy and economic policies which were failing in 1941
When ever im feeling down I just come back to this video and watch it it doesn't fail to put a smile on my face every time I absolutely love pro wrestling
jamie goode The problem is that if WWE did this, people would be saying that they ripped off Grado or some shit like that. There's no pleasing WWE haters.
When you can hear a song on the radio and immediately think of a moment in pro wrestling, then you know a wrestler and a promotion have done something truly special. Brilliant from both ICW and Grado!
It’s moments like this that make me look forward to wrestling post-pandemic. As good as the ultra-slick US brands on TV are, it’s not the same as watching Grado pop a crowd in person.
It's NOT the size of the crowd that matter but the PASSION they bring small or large an INVESTED crowd will make the smallest arena feel like a massive one but a large BORED/UPSET crowd will make the biggest arena feel like a bingo hall as they sit in silence
One thing about wrestling, I've never watched a grado match. Or UK wrestling, but I've seen this entrance a million times. I love wrestling, it found me and I'm happy it did
As someone who lived and breathed ECW like a religion - you guys are the only ones in the last 22 years to create anything close to the same buzz. Kudos extreme brothers.

Luke Evans Honestly the little of ICW ive seen, i enjoy so much more than any american product (WWE, TNA, ROH) because frankly the fans are just way better, their invested enough to where they enjoy the show and wanna see the matches, but they dont take it so seriously that they start actively trying to ruin the show like american fans do now (seriously when crowds start chanting "we are awesome" they can just fuck right off). Ive never seen a full episode but it feels diffrent that the indies over here where the show structure tries to be the same as RAW (20 minute promos opening with someone coming out to interupt, and then they have a main event match that week. then a couple matches and backstage skits rinse and repeat), matches are so poorly structured in shows like ROH with zero psychology or storytelling and end up devolving into guys doing pointless spots (the spots are cool but pointless in the match context) and no selling each others finishers like they are the Undertaker.
Fuck the smarks, marks, IWC, casuals & all the other BS that comes to classifying wrestling fans these days. This video shows the true enjoyment & passion for the art of pro-wrestling the FANS, from 70-70,000 it really doesn't matter as long as there are passionate fans who make noise & enjoy what their watching it doesn't matter if they have "DA LOOK" or if they are "In ring Generals" that comes later this video again shows off the TRUE community & entertainment wrestling fans get watch wrestling not some nice product for the indy scene or some corporate BS just wrestling. Plus the MF'er is rocking a fanny pack, awesome.
DMCB1994 Some do no doubt but far too many dont, the way american fans take wrestling way to serious i could see smark crowd just booing the shit out of this guy because they wanna be cool
TheSilverPhoenix100 If executed properly, I don't think much people would boo him. I admit at first I thought this guy was a joke and a waste of time until I saw some of his material. Grado has grown on me. I do hope he gets a WrestleMania type moment.
The transition from the Goldberg theme to Like A Prayer is fucking flawless. Kudos to the audio people there.
Cheers. ;-) #audiopeople

The best thing that can happen in a wrestling arena ❤️

Whenever I'm not feeling at my best I put this on and suddenly the world isn't so bad.
We're right there with you, Jason!
Hearing an entire crowd singing 'Like a Prayer' is truly beautiful.
Specially a crowd of drunk loudmouth Jocks haha
Amazing
some wrestlers that has a song that any fan will sing alone to no matter they a good guy or a bad guy there theme will get them over
When wrestling's bad it's terrible. But when it's great it's fucking beautiful.
Damn straigth Dude

This is pro wrestling. The theater. The crowd. The atmosphere. The man who was supposed to be just a joke, but through talent and heart, connected with the audience and they made him a bonafide star. This is pro wrestling.
In ICW, But he didn't get over even In TNA, But even wwe house shows are still crazy, So pro wrestling isn't dead yet. Lol
@@DYLANJJK94 The Madonna entrance is one of the best think to have him over. His entrance is awesome! And sadly in TNA we didn't have that.
Amen! THIS is the definition of pro-wrestling. It's not supposed to totally make sense, it's a show of crazy fun characters! It's a serial!
@@DYLANJJK94 he didn't get over in TNA because TNA didn't know how to use him right, made him more of a bootleg Crash Holly if anything.
Tna didn’t let him be hisself
Every single person in that building is having the time of their lives, and that is fucking majestic.
I never knew it was possible to have a good time listening to madonna but grado made me rethink that
Brown Pants the fuck is your problem?
Grado walked so Deadpool and Wolverine could fly
Finally someone's referenced it. Ive had to come back to this so many times cos of that film
I was waiting for it too... I was like "Grado!" In the theater...
He should come out to the epic version as Gradopool
I came back from the theater and showed my wife this clip, so facts
I remember watching this guy live, he's the only one I think of when this song comes on.
Ive seen this video like 100x and cant watch it without a big smile on my face
Same! Grados is the best!
+A04-Ali *Grado's the best
*Garin *Luff. You should know to capitalise your own name.
This was a sick mix of the two songs. Who would’ve thought Goldberg’s theme with Like a Prayer would work so well
Me.
It the timing of Goldberg theme into the lyrics whilst slowly just having madonna on it own wonder how many times they edited it before they did it live
That wasn't Goldberg's theme, but ok

Muss wohl dann direkt im Januar nochmal nach Oberhausen rüberfahren um mir das mal live reinzuziehen^^
The pop he gets when he comes out is just filthy. Kid has them eating out of his crazy, Scottish hand.
Switch "crazy" and "filthy" there....
Grado outside UK: Treated "just" as a comedy act
Grado in UK: Literally A GOD
It's like lawler in memphis
Grado needs to be in All In at Wembley!
He could be awesome in any company with the same booking he gets in ICW. Have seen him LIVE he is over as they get if it were an art form he'd have it perfected.
@@TheDancerMacabreBROOO 😂😂 imagine
@@TheDancerMacabrethe monkey’s paw curls a finger and Jeff grabs his guitar
such a small detail but the crowd shouting "one fall" is the coolest thing
I know right? it shows the crowd is actually wanting to be apart of the experience
This acually may be the greatest thing ive ever seen in my 15 years of watching pro wrestling. Awesome.
My second was a kid when mankind and the undertaker had the cage match
I love how only in wrestling you can have a chubby Scottish coming out with a fanny pack in spandex to Like A Prayer and a bunch of men sing along...
Only in Scotland can this happen and us not giving two fucks about what people say about it

Thank you to the Deadpool/Wolverine movie trailer for bringing me back here
Watch this every day. Always puts a smile on my face.
How can this not make you happy? I love Grado so much!

Jacob Reyes
.
Bullshit.
The creativity from the wrestlers and the energy from the fans just make this the best show. An ICW arena of 5,000 beats WrestleMania of 100,000
That mainly Scottish crowds are mental no mater the size or what ever the event is
The transition from Goldberg to like a prayer is perfect
*chef's kiss*
Like or Hate Grado , but in my opinion it's one of the most memorable theme songs ever.
Only man to get Madonna over as an entrance theme, I'll give him that.
+SilverZombie44 he can't use it in tna or Wcpw only in icw for some reason
matt cumming At least He should have a cover version of this song
+TheCMTruth yeah his entrance just feels weird without it
+matt cumming Probably copyright issues or something like that. Still at his tron is awesome.
I've lost count of how many times I've watched this in the last two months. I fucking love this guy's entrance!
I promise you....your product is so good that it needs to have SOME type of television slot over here in The States, it'll be watched and loved.
Our show is available in parts of the US on The Fight Network. New episode every week. We are always looking to exand on to new channels as well though.

When ever im feeling down I just come back to this video and watch it it doesn't fail to put a smile on my face every time I absolutely love pro wrestling
With the energy the crowd gives off it might as well be a million people in there that's amazing
WWE creative team take notes, this is how you pull of a comedy wrestler off, entrance, acting, the whole thing.
jamie goode The problem is that if WWE did this, people would be saying that they ripped off Grado or some shit like that. There's no pleasing WWE haters.
JasonL77 i'd love to see grado in wwe
JasonL77 Please, shed more tears for the billion-dollar monopoly that openly spites its audience.
KruelAidMan Your comment proved my point.
JasonL77 Wow, how clever. You come up with that all by yourself?
Don't mind me... Just here for my daily view of this gem. ;)
I come back to this pretty much once a week
I thought I was the only one
same
Still?
This is it. This is the best entrance in wrestling history.
Everyone wanna talk about some Deadpool and Wolverine. THIS MAN WAS DOING IT LIKE NOBODY ELSE BEFORE HIM
Still, the greatest entrance in pro wrestling history...
That was one of the most majestic goddamn thing's I've ever seen. It was beautiful. And I am a better person for having seen it.
Bless you, Grado.

We can't wait!
I really have goosbumps watching this on July 2021, amazing !
It's NOT the size of the crowd that matter but the PASSION they bring small or large an INVESTED crowd will make the smallest arena feel like a massive one but a large BORED/UPSET crowd will make the biggest arena feel like a bingo hall as they sit in silence
Glasgow crowds are the best. We always go fuckin mental!
One thing about wrestling, I've never watched a grado match. Or UK wrestling, but I've seen this entrance a million times. I love wrestling, it found me and I'm happy it did
I can’t be the only one that comes back at least once a year to watch this love it
We're right here with you
This and Joe Hendry's entrance against Jack Jester made me fall in love with wrestling all over again :D ICW you gained a fan in Croatia :)
I miss this time in pro wrestling. It was such a fun time
This is a top 5 entrance of all time
Graaaaaadoooooo!
ZIIIIIISTEAUUUUU
Such an awesome entrance, I popped immediately!
Bro you took me back to my childhood, I forgot about you how are you holding up
You know it, Zisteau!
3 years later. Just absolutely perfect. Much love. AGAIN to the music guy.
As the music guy, cheers. :-)
Other people: "Hey, It's the song from Deadpool and Wolverine"
Wrestling fans: "IT'S GRAAAAAAADOOOOOOOOOOOO!"
As someone who lived and breathed ECW like a religion - you guys are the only ones in the last 22 years to create anything close to the same buzz. Kudos extreme brothers.
This theme was the GOAT of wrestling themes, i missed my chance to see Grado wrestle at ICW probably, was planning to but never got round to going.
Wembley Stadium in London, England ... August 27, 2023 ... All In ... make it happen Tony.
Omg..didnt expect that twist..great transition..that was actually pretty cool.
Thanks for watching!
Imagine a Wrestlemania crowd singing this!
Would be AWESOME
+Matthew Pearce the thing is . . . itll be so friggen OVER! itll take over the YES chants!
I wish if only WWE would pay up for the rights to use the song atleast for one night better yet have Madonna perform it herself lol
MattyP imagine the entrance to the royal rumble. imagine they got the rights to 'like a prayer.' or that CFO$ did a mix.
MattyP Jim Cornette would have a heart attack
Cmon Tony Khan, let's get 80,000 people singing this at Wembley on Sunday 👀
..........beautiful .........there's a tear in my eye .....God bless you Scotland for producing Grado
Anyone going to appreciate how smooth the transition was from the Goldberg theme to Madonna's music?
5 years and i still watching this! I miss this entrance.
The mix of "Like a prayer" with Goldberg's theme was absolutely incendiary! 🔥
this is the best mashup theme/entrance ive seen, ever.
A crowd of a couple hundred or thousand from ICW is much better than a quiet crowd of 15,000 from WWE
That's cause ICW has a dedicated fan base whereas WWE tries to get fans by stealing talent from better promotions then killing them
Then you should check out WWE's house shows, 8,000 harcore fans go crazy.
@@ChristopherJames1993 WWE steals talent from promotions how?? What by signing them. If thats the case NJPW, ROH, AEW, and TNA steal talent all the time to
You've never seen Brooklyn, Chicago, British, Philly, or NXT crowds then
Ahhh the perfect Glasgow crowd right there
I just found out about this and I can't understand why the whole world doesn't know about this. This is the best entrance EVER.
Greatest entrance of professional wrestling of all time
ICW is class. When you get there it's as though you are talking to longtime friends, the atmosphere is phenomenal!
This has stayed in my watch later playlist for 4 years
This is still one of the best entrances I have ever seen.
The camera work when he comes out of the curtain. This man is a star
ICW puts TNA to shame!
And wwe,may be a smaller crowd but the noise and pop puts us crowds to shame
Luke Evans Honestly the little of ICW ive seen, i enjoy so much more than any american product (WWE, TNA, ROH) because frankly the fans are just way better, their invested enough to where they enjoy the show and wanna see the matches, but they dont take it so seriously that they start actively trying to ruin the show like american fans do now (seriously when crowds start chanting "we are awesome" they can just fuck right off).

Luke Evans , Nope, not at all. Some people, pathetic.
shane jones If WWE had shows in venues that held 1000, those shows would be pretty nuts too. Look at NXT, especially Takeover events.
Fuck TNA

After 10 years in The Business, I've seen them come and go, but I've never seen anyone on the British circuit with the staying power of Grado.
Paul Frost I couldnt agree more, its just nice to see people enjoy wrestling rather than just try and get themselves over and bury the product
Paul Frost As someone who referee's on the indy circuit in the States, I can tell you that indy promotions are built on geeky gimmicks like this.
you mean the wwe marks
I bet Jim Cornette blames him for "ruining the business".
I come back this every now and than for inspiration
Same!
After seeing that Deadpool and Wolverine Trailer, this was all I could think about...
Same
Still watchin this in 2018. This is epic
Now this man knows his audience better than most A lists. We need him on TV, ASAP.
One of the best mashup, entrance, crowd and gimnick in this video. OMG!
Ryan Reynolds is a Grado Fam confirmed
Bloody fantastic work.
Here from the Deadpool & Wolverine Trailer.
Im still watching this in 2024 this is entertaining 💯
There aren’t many things I’ve wanted to see more in person than this
man, this is awesome. I would have loved to have been in that crowd.
The real MVP is the person who mixed that entrance music.
only grado can make grown men sing Madonna
80000+ in Wembley All in, sing along like a prayer , make it happen Toni Khan.
Grado is awesome sometimes the reactions he gets convince me that wrestling can have magic moments.
This is the best entrance ever.
Grown men in the audience singing along to like a prayer absolutely phenomenal 😂
“Once upon a time he was Graham Stevely from Stevenson but tonight, once more, he’s Grado”
"the tap end of Stevenson..."
It's a tiny place, but it's important to be precise.
I cannot stop watching this. It´s simply amazing.
How amazing would this be at a WrestleMania!
It would be so epic. Too bad americans would just probably not find it funny at all.

Mercifully someone's got the right idea for British Wrestling. Instant fan of this guy.
I love the One Fall chant!
...One Fall!
I had a rough year, I suffered ACL broken leg. AND THIS MADE ME SO HAPPY!
and that folks, is what being over looks like.
Exactly
*cough*ROMAN*cough*
what a night that was!!!
the atmosphere was the best, everyone was going nuts, beer flying everywhere, at times!
love me some ICW!!
Can we just appreciate the amazing mashup of themes.
This is one of the greatest entrances in pro wrestling history!
Damn... Gotta Admit it... Love That Crowd, Love That Entrance, Love This Guy
I've lost count how much I've actually watched this now lol. Grado you legend much respect from down south xD
I really need to experience this live.
Damn next time I visit scotland i should check out a wrestling show there.
Grado the man who got back into wrestling what a man
I loved him ever since I watched this. What a fuckin' character.
We need this at Wembley, Tony. Do it. Do it, you fucking mark!
