Best WWE produced song

[DaNewGuy]

As a song (i.e. not just based on how well it fits the character) what is the best that WWE has produced?
For the purposes of the question, it could included in house themes (like Bret Hart's Enter the Hitman) or music done by bands specifically for WWE (like Steve Austin's Glass Shatters by Disturbed), but not music that's just been appropriated by WWE (like Limp Bizkit's Rollin' which Undertaker used, or Puddle of Mudd's Control which was the theme for the 2001 Survivor Series).

I'll have to go with Sycho Sid's "Snap". The song mostly due to the talking and instruments complimented his unstable character very well. Very well organized. Still 1 of my all-time favs to this day.

 

[gelfling666]

The DX theme or the new age outlaws theme.

O you didnt know ya ass better call somebody

 

[fucenaHHH999]

I would say hhhs my time theme always loved it thought it fit hunter perfectly back then

 

[HeenanGorilla]

Land of 1,0000 dances by the WWF wrestlers in 1985. Still catchy and awesome! Available on YouTube..the video is incredible!

 

[dakikko049]

I don't know if Chris Benoit's counts but if it does then it would be one of my favourites, same with Mark Henry's current theme. Other than those I also really liked the DX theme.

 

[TaZ-Mission]

my favorite one was ken shamrocks, use to play that song non stop back in the day

My picks would have to be Demolition's theme and Trip's "MyTime" from '99. Both of those themes just gets me pumped. Would've come in handy when I played football. Liked Mr. Perfect's theme as well.

 

[Manof1,004Holds]

I liked both of DX's themes, the one with Run DMC and the current one. But my favorite(s) would probably be The Undertaker's Attitude Era theme, Chris Jericho's, John Cena's thuganomics theme, and of course Stone Cold's.

I don't think you can really go wrong with Shawn Michaels' theme. And if any WWE fan says they don't have it on their iPod, they are lying

I don't think you can really go wrong with Shawn Michaels' theme. And if any WWE fan says they don't have it on their iPod, they are lying

That is probably one of the fruitiest things you could ever put on your iPod. A pretty boy saying how sexy he is? And you think ALL fans have it!?

Anyway, Rick Derringer deserves to be in the Hall of Fame for Real American alone.

 

[theHeadliner]

I like Jake the Snake's theme, Michaels' tune helped get him over and its catchy as hell. Ted Dibiase's is simple but affective. I loved Hogan's back in the day with Rick Derringer.

 

[pita323]

I have always liked Drew McIntyre's theme (Broken Dreams by Shaman's Harvest)the most. Other than that, the RAW theme from Nickelback (Burn it to the Ground) is a favorite of mine also.

 

[Rockyfolifebo!!!]

Attitude Era had the best themes hands down. Think about it:
The Ministry had that dark theme with the Undertaker chanting something at the beginning. IMO, that' his scariest theme, especially the Wrestlemania XV version. (chills)

The Rock: "If Ya Smeelllll". When you heard/hear that, you automatically stop what you're doing. You glue your eyes to the t.v, and turn the volume up because you know he's gonna say something golden.

Stone Cold: When you hear the glass shatter, the first words that come to mind are "oh hell yeah!" You know shits about to get real when he comes marching down the ramp without a grin.

DX: Very classic theme, probably in the top 3 of all time. It has that badass feel to it.

And so on and so forth. WWE's best themes came out in the Atttitude Era. Period.

(notable mentions) Gangrel, Test, D'Lo, NAO, Jericho, Kane

 

[Unknown]

im going with HHH's song because triple h is a intense guy, and the song brings intensity into the air when you see him come out and the song plays.

 

[TheChosenOne]

I don't know/care if they was WWE produced, but Slow Chemical (Kane's 2002-2008) and Whatever (Chris Benoit) were/are my favorites.

 

[thatboyD-BRY]

Daniel Bryans Flight of Valkries the one he uses now

 

[BigDaddyKewl]

The Ultimate Warrior had one of th best theme of The Rock n Wrestling Era. It still gets me pumped and want to Run around and shake something.

Tough to just go with one, the WWE has produced so many great themes, mostly in the original PG Era and Attitude Era. I'll just pick out some off the top of my head right now.

Stone Cold & The Rock (any versions) - That would just get you to pop and blow the roof off as soon as their intros hit. And some other poster put it best for Austin, whenever you hear that glass shatter, you knew somebody was about to get their ass handed to them.

Jake The Snake - His theme was just epic, sounds like something you'd hear in a oldschool classic movie, like maybe Escape From New York or something.

The Corporate Ministry - Both their themes seperately were good but remixed together, it was just awesome. Would give me goosebumps everytime I listen to it.

The Union - For such a short lived and underrated stable, they had one badass entrance song.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4lfEmPvFiXY&feature=related

But there are tons more that I could pick out, if I went back and thought about it long & hard, would take me like a week to list all of em.

As for, Raw, PPV & match promo themes, I'm more of a fan for the themes that WWE produced for them in the PG & Attitude Era's than the ones produced now. Some themes off the top of my head

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JqQb7cfBaA8: All Together Now (Raw Is War theme)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LBFSojGkLtg: Thorn In Your Eye (Raw Is War theme)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=saF5DFelWF8: Nine Lives (No Mercy 99 UK theme)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HWrPgjOkXDY: On The Tracks (No Way Out 2000 theme, also used in match video promos)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sw19xA5TrWE: Rage (Wrestlemania 15 theme)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xporEvGxWn4 (used in a lot of Stone Cold video promos)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pLF6Gfjb03g: Death Race (Royal Rumble 1998 theme, god this gets my so hyped up everytime I listen to it)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2vr9fdFz4qY: Classic Wrestlemania theme

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=egu203Fld94: Classic Wrestlemania theme #2

Just like with the entrances, I can name tons more classic Raw/PPV/match promo themes from the PG/Attitude Era.

 

[I'mTheJanetty13]

Old school- "Real American" or Demolition's theme song

Current- I've always like "Voices."

 

[Hollywood Naitch]

"Line In The Sand" by Motorhead for Evolution, just a fantastic song. Listen to this on a very regular basis. Also "The Game" by the same band for Trips is a classic.

Other Jim Johnston songs I love are:

The Brood
Ken Shamrock
Stone Cold
D-X
HBK
Jericho

Gotta say, the Attitude Era had far better themes than the wrestlers now.

 

[Awesome_Miz]

Taker's theme song.

 

[nbda1997]

"Jive Soul Bro" - Slick's theme.

Honorable mention: Corporate Ministry
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1ZZLwl6zZSI
It was a lame storyline, but I like how they mashed up "No Chance In Hell" with an Undertaker-like melody
