Same thing.

MK Rope Drop
Magic Kingdom Welcome
MK Welcome Show

All the same thing.
Guests need to arrive about a half-hour (or more) before the posted opening time for MK.
Go through the ticket "tap styles" and wait for the show, which will begin as early as 15 minutes before the posted opening time.

MK has an opening Rope Drop Show.
Epcot does not.
DAK does not.

At DHS, it's possible that they will have a "Frozen" Welcome Show in the mornings starting at approx. 10 minutes before the posted park opening time.
If they DO, guests will be held on Hollywood Blvd, in front of the Great Movie Ride (Chinese Theater.)

This helps me not so much about the rope drop shows, but since I've never been to any of the parks it is nice seeing a "real" view of where things are so I can orient my mind on where to go once the resort bus drops us at the park. I've looked at the areal views like this but not knowing where the bus dropped off in relation to where you go in. I have this weird personality quirk where I don't like not knowing where I am going. I know there are probably signs to point me in the right direction and then there is always the concept of follow the crowd, but I guess I am just a little loony and I like to feel in control.

Also note that they don't ALWAYS do the MK welcome show. They normally do, buts it's not 100% everyday.

And some days they do shorter versions on it. You'll more than likely see the full show, but just a heads up in case you don't and are wondering why

I think it is more likely that you will see a shortened RD show or no RD show on an AM EMH day (and if you saw a show, it would be before the AM EMH opening time, not the regular opening time).
