Mariano didn't use it until well after he became closer.
While with Houston during Wagner's rookie season in 1996, teammate Jeff Bagwell disliked the lefty's entry music, George Strait's "They Call Me the Fireman," and persuaded Wagner to switch.
Rivera didn't begin using the song for another three years.
Anyone with half a brain knows that Mariano Rivera is the real Sandman. He flaunts it quietly, goes about his business being great in the postseason and winning championships. he rocks that song in a way that Billy Wagner wishes he can. when u hear that song it comes with a presence, either u think Mo or Metallica
That doesnt mean he knows how to rock it. Trust me, u think of Enter Sandman u think of Metallica or Mo. What accomplishments does Wagner have to solidify his position as the "real" Sandman?
whoa whoa whoa!!!! thats mariano riveras entrance music!!!
billy wagner blows toooooo many saves to deserve metallica!!!

This guy can't even hold Mariano's jock, much less be compared to him. Wagner's nothing but a choker.
