Legit, Most Popular Pro-Wrestling Theme of All Time

[George Steele's Barber]

Yeah, well, I'm Syrian.

In that case keep your eye out for a pink package in the mail.

Anyone who's used "Welcome to the Jungle".

Sometimes when the wife and kids are away I invite some slender, young, hairless Asian men over to my home. We oil up, strip down to speedos and hold our own little wrestling promotion. I come out to Celine Dion's My Heart Will Go On.

Does that count?

No. Because I wrestle for Banana Hammock Championship Wrestling and I come out to Gene Autry's "Rudolph The Red-Nose Reindeer".

 

[ABMorales787]

L.A. Park and La Parka come out to "Thriller". As unfitting as it is.

Sandman Ecw or Ultimate Warriors music

 

[ヒュー　G.　レックション]

That song was successful long before Punk used it though.

Are people forgetting Hogan using Voodoo Child?

Where did This Fire Burns by Killswitch Engage get??

Seriously?

 

[Alex]

Seriously?

I liked it.

Walk by Pantera when RVD used it in ECW

 

[Wolf Pac]

Does DDP's cover of Smells Like Teen Spirit count?

 

[D-Man]

None of these choices go with my topic. Lots of wrestlers used theme songs that were popular 10 years before their time. But who (besides Victoria) had a theme song that was a CURRENT hit on the radio? I think she had the most popular, current theme song of all time.

Goldberg - Crush 'Em (Megadeth)?

 

[Wolf Pac]

Oh. The only song I can think of is Loser by Beck. Mikey Whipwreck used that in ECW when it was a current hit.

 

[Nate DaMac]

Goldberg - Crush 'Em (Megadeth)?

Did he use that? For some reason I thought it was Sting.

 

[The Dragon Saga]

Wasn't American Badass by Kid Rock getting good airplay when Taker returned in 2000? Or even Rollin' by Limp Bizkit when he switched? Despite their irrelevance now Limp Bizkit had a period of popularity and mainstream success.

 

[FunKay the Inevitable]

I take it we're only discussing wrestlers themes and not show themes etc..?

Can i just clarify that you weren't expecting it to do better than any of the other mentioned songs?

I was just curious to see if it did well at all

Oh ok cool. I apologise I misinterpreted your post.

Enter Sandman didn't come out until the early '90s, but it's easily Metallica's most famous/popular song.

I think GSB's on to a winner with Rollin'.

 

[The 1-2-3 Killam]

"Real American" may have not made it high on the charts, but it also may have not been available for commercial purchase at the time. It's not like they had the internet, with the ability to literally buy a song the minute it's first used in the WWE.

I dare you to find somebody that lived through the 80's that hasn't heard "Real American".

 

[Kokken Tor]

Junkyard Dog with Queens mega-hit "Another One Bites the Dust"

 

[UltimateCMPunkMark]

My all time favorites are Stone Cold's theme song, The Rock's theme song and CM Punk's This fire burns them song. I do love Cult of personality tho.

 

[Turd Ferguson]

Didn't the Freebirds use "Free Bird" by Skynyrd for awhile? If so, that's probably your winner.

 

[SD619]

What about 'Ride of the Valkyries'? It is quite popular. Obviously, with it being written long, long ago, it won't be on any Top Billboard lists.
