Demolition not at #1, let alone in the top 50, means this list is pure shit.

Disagree!! partially. They picked the correct 1 and 2, but no Demolition at all is a fucking travesty, yes. Also, number 5 and 3 should be switched. I love Edge(and that theme/entrance), but come the fuck on.


Glad to see Mcyntire in there. Maybe they havent forgotten..and he will be back someday.

Also Batista is woefully lower than he should be. I almost passed out during one of those entrances at a live show.

Gad to see even WWE recognizes that KSE Punk entrance > Living Colour entrance. Yea, it was cute and hip for a while, "zomg old school rock band with black people in it", but lets get over it. MITB 2011, thats all I got to say.


NO Razor Ramon??? REALLY? But fucking MAVEN is goddamn on there?

The ranking of Goldberg's theme is WAYYY too low as well. Sweet Jesus, when that music used to come on
 
Ill be honest, I liked the WWE one with the guitar riffs better.


Didn't do for me, but why did the WWE use a different version? Didn't they get the music archives too with purchase of WCW?

Oh wait, ye they'd have to pay whoever the composer was royalty on a nightly basis.
 
I wonder what the original name of Kurt's theme was. They used it at Survivor Series one year for an "American" team before Kurt was ever in the WWE.
 
Not quite sure what the Top 50 Themes are going by, but if it's on popularity, I don't quite get why Road Dogg's theme didn't make the cut. Other than that, the list is solid, give or take swap a few around.

Other than that, sure
 
Listened to Bret's theme on my way from Robertson to Stellenbosch. I love Big Show's theme and Rock's current one, but "Cult of Personality", "Metalingus" and a few others are actual songs that transcend this list, IMO.
 
Also Sprach Zatathustra is on the list but only 6th. One of the most iconic pieces of music ever written is only one place ahead of Motorhead.

You better pray Lemmy doesn't see this post...
 
Tazz's 13 and Goldust's Gold Lust both got on the list. I've no complaints.

Edit: Alright, one addition I might make:

Edit2: And so TNA gets some representation:

Shit, there's a theme emerging here.
 
This list is missing Road Dogg, Razor Ramon and the ECW "This is Extreme" themes.

Great to see The Brood so high up, that is one of the best themes WWE ever created.

I love the Shamrock and Taz themes, its a pleasant surprise to see that one in the list.

No way should The Shield or Steve Blackman be on there.

The 4 Horsemen theme is probably the best of all time, but as its never really been used in WWE I can appreciate it not being on there, same with The nWo Wolfpac.
