In April 2005, Motörhead was riding a wave of renewed popularity following the release of their album "Inferno" in 2004, which marked a return to their signature hard rock sound. Their live performance of "The Game" at WrestleMania 21, where they accompanied the entrance of Triple H, showcased the band's enduring appeal and their crossover into popular culture, particularly within the world of professional wrestling.
