I'm not a big Antonio Inoki fan at all, but his theme song was awesome. I get a kick out of all the weird funk/disco instrumental themes used in '70s/'80s Japanese wrestling. Trying to imagine Genichiro Tenryu dancing to "Thunder Storm" is busting me up laughing at the moment.

I can't believe I or no one else has posted this yet. There are earlier variations of the theme that kick ass as well.

I really dig the music, but the Zach De La Rocha vocals kind of ruin it. Some harsher vocals would've fit the song better or maybe no singing at all.

This is probably my favorite theme ever. Never fails to give me goosebumps:

Muta's WCW theme was always awesome. I'm gonna see you one Muta theme and raise you another...

The screaming could probably go, but this is a great "Big dude is coming to kill people" theme.

At the risk of sounding like generic Laz, I concur. The theme loses me once the whiny screamo vocals come out, just like how Rollins' falls apart because it's the same overused deathcore riff again and again.

Interesting tidbit on Black's theme and development he revealed on the Edge and Christian podcast yesterday. He wrote the first draft of the lyrics and he chose the band, as the band is one of his favorites.

Licensing "Voodoo Child" was the best money WCW ever spent.

I don't feel right letting this iteration of an entrance theme thread go this long without some Hayabusa love.

I'm going with:

Finn Balor - Catch Your Breath (Demon King version) In my humble opinion, this is the finest piece of music to ever come from WWE
Undertaker - Lord of Darkness
Aleister Black - Root of All Evil
Jeff Jarrett - My World
Sting - Starrcade 97 Theme
nWo - Wolfpac
Goldberg - Invasion WCW version
Brock Lesnar - Whatever his theme is called
Triple H - King of Kings

You know, I'm glad that WWE regularly recognizes Motörhead's greatness by using them as entrance music...I just wish they had been used for Austin or Undertaker instead.

Incendiary, a hardcore band from Brooklyn. Very solid band if you're a hardcore fan.

Root of All Evil has made me want to seek out more of their material, for sure.

This one is usually mentioned as a great theme. I fucking love this shit.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mv7XN-Q0jVc

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mPbroKfmtkE

Kind of a pattern emerging.

I never see this getting much love, but it's an 80s throwback and I really love it.

Of the current stuff, most of what I like has been mentioned, but I think this song is really catchy and I like it. I've heard worse Rihanna album filler.

I was talking about the NXT team of Sabbatelli and Moss in the thread. Not even a big fan of theirs but that theme keeps getting stuck in my head and I keep pulling it up on WWE's music YouTube channel

Watching AEW, I realized Austin Gunn looks a lot like a hybrid of Billy Gunn and a guy I went to school with which got me thinking that Billy has a theme for every kind of love making.

over there
Mr. Perfect
Ric Flair (Also sprach Zarathustra)
Hulk Hogan and the ensuing pop (before we found out he was racist)

When I was involved with Habitat for Humanity, our annual fundraiser/contest always had a section with a "get to know"/"Q&A" for contestants. We'd get to select entrance music. Coming out to "Also sprach Zarathustra" was peak nerdom for me.

Despite not liking country, for some reason I got the old TNA James Storm LONGNECKS & REDNECKS stuck in my head. Great song, even though me singing it would be a lie because neither longnecks nor rednecks are my friends :-\

They still haven’t uploaded the new singles Otis theme that he’s had since Hell in a Cell but the new Big E theme by Wale is finally available.
