Paid Members wandshogun09 Posted March 18, 2022 Paid Members Share Posted March 18, 2022 The classic Royal Rumble theme although it seems naked without Vince McMahon screaming over the top of it. I actually associate this more with SummerSlam 89 though because it played in the show opening and that was my first VHS. Touching on the opening post, I always preferred the original Bret Hart theme from the Hart Foundation - early singles days; Â Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members bAzTNM#1 Posted March 18, 2022 Paid Members Share Posted March 18, 2022 I know this was Jake Roberts theme but i'd love to have heard a longer version of THIS version. Sounds more bass guitary. Prepare for 80s cheese.. Â Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I'd been a wrestler and they were handing out themes, that's the one I would've chosen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TildeGuy~! Posted March 18, 2022 Share Posted March 18, 2022 NJPW’s Taichi totally live performing his entrance theme  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Jazzy G Posted March 23, 2022 Paid Members Share Posted March 23, 2022 Loved this. I think I used it as my entrance music in whichever Smackdown game came out when he had it. I know it was his music when he wrestled Rey Mysterio at a house show in Sheffield. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael_3165 Posted March 23, 2022 Share Posted March 23, 2022 Not sure how to add a video but someone has to put Wonderful up - Orndorff's WCW version around 95 (?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LSM Posted March 30, 2022 Share Posted March 30, 2022 Â Surprised this hasn't had a mention yet. Love Curt at the end "I didn't lip sync that either!" Â Â Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Carbomb Posted March 30, 2022 Author Paid Members Share Posted March 30, 2022 How we've got this far without the classic Wrestlemania theme being mentioned, I don't know. Â Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merzbow Posted March 30, 2022 Share Posted March 30, 2022 An underrated remix of the original, apparently Hayabusa put this together himself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bit mad to think they only used this for four WrestleManias but a whole generation of us think of this as the music for the real “this is going to be gigantic” show, and the definitive Mania tune that was used “forever,” just because they were the WrestleManias of our childhood. I do feel almost equally as warm and fuzzy about the (instrumental) “Woaaah woaaah, WrestleMania” track they used from X to… I want to say 15. They’d dumped it by 16 for choosing something unique (and usually rubbish) every year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like I mentioned in the Scott Hall thread, I missed most of that era, so for me that tune's a bit shite - primarily because the version without lyrics that was used as Linda McMahon's theme sounded just too twee, even for wrestling. Peter Gabriel's Big Time is probably the best and most imaginative choice for a Wrestlemania theme they've done in the later years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was pretty good. The set and pyro for that opening was good too and in general probably the last time I thought “Hooray, it’s Mania!” from the start.
