Does Jerry Lawler count for just his WWE runs?

Talking of Bret and his music, I always find him an odd one when thinking about it. Most people in tag teams who then become singles stars end up reinventing themselves. New attire, new music etc to break away from the tag team.  Whereas Bret kept the same tag team attire and the same tag team music.
 

Roman also did the same up until a few years ago. Ambrose and Rollins changed up their looks and themes and Roman was still clinging onto the SHIELD like an ex who won’t move on  

Andre the Giants music I’m pretty sure never changed too 😉

Lawler had a completely different theme around his feud with Michael Cole for a brief period. A baffling decision.

Yeah Brock did have different music when he first debuted, he didn’t get his ‘Here Comes The Pain/Next Big Thing’ theme until May 2002 when the KOTR Qualifers began.

His first theme still has the noise at the start, but was a different riff. It didn’t last long, but was used at Backlash 2002 and whatever the UK PPV after it was (he teamed with Shawn Stasiack in a Tag match against the Hardys), and as pointed out, it was called Enforcer

 

 

This theme initially didnt have the intro noise either. Have a gander at this one, it sounds like they recorded some roadworks going on with someone using a jackhammer:

Mountie had this before the "I'm The Mountie" song.

There's then of course the debate as to whether Quebecer Jacques is the same character as the Mountie (they had both the "We are" & "We're not" songs), or if we're talking about characters or wrestlers as Jacques Rougeau had several themes.

They did also acknowledge The Mountie was Jacques Rougeau so it's all one thing anyway.

Was just about to post about the Quebecers...  Arguabley the better version too.

Ultimate Warrior was my first thought - but in terms of length of time, surely Kevin Owens is the winner.  Nearly 12 years and has only had one theme - I don't even think it's had a variation.

If it weren't for TNA, I'd have had a guess at Flair. But I daresay that he probably didn't start his career with Also Spracht Zarathustra.

He used a few different songs here and there including Phil Collins' Easy Lover.

Did he? That's mental. I mean every wrestler at some point should've had a Phil Collins song as their theme. Imagine Yokozuna coming out to Sussudio for example.

'Take Me Home' by Phil Collins was used a few times over the end credits of Saturday Night's Main Event. And let's not forget this 'ultimate' Collins / wrestling crossover:

He had a rip off of it in his first WWF run.
