This Taker is bananas, B-A-N-A-N-A-S! Are you referring to the current incarnation of the Deadman, "Walker-Texas-Ranger-Taker". Incarnations of the Undertaker: Orginal Deadman - Quiet Taker Purple Booted Deadman - Stylish Taker Gray Masked Deadman - Phantom of the Opera Taker Not the Fake Deadman - I did this for my Friend Brian Lee Taker Ministry Deadman - UnderSatan American Deadman - "Sweet Tight Titan Bike" Riding Taker (quoted from Michael Cole during a DOA enterance) Cowboy Taker - Walker-Texas-Ranger-Taker

I always liked the D'Lo Brown song that he had for a while in the late 90's. It wasn't "Danger at the Door" that was on WWE Vol 4. It appeared in the PS1 game "WWF Attitude". It started with D'Lo's voice saying "I think you betta recognize.... I think.... I think... I think you betta recognize" and then it went off into some funk riffs.

Does any one else remember an absolutely lifeless Austin theme that was used VERY briefly during the (ugh!) Alliance era. It was very slow and completely unsuited to Austin. It didn't last very long and was later changed back to his Disturbed theme music. I believe said tune can be found on SmackDown!: Just Bring It! for the PS2.

Dont forget the 'head cheese' music that was only used for about 2 weeks and then dropped because steve blackman hated it.

Evolution: they had the original lyricless version, and then the other one with Motorhead, but it had the trumpets instead of the ticking clock. Glad they kept the ticking clock. i remember that one, i liked the one with trumpets actually but oh well

Speaking of themes, did you notice how Batista's guitar riff is taken from Jericho's "King of my World" backing and "The Game" backing is the backing of Benoit's old theme (the instumental one). About the latter, I don't know which one is older, but definitely a copy and paste.
Any other rip-offs?
/edit. BTW "The Game" (both versions) is pretty much "My Time" with different lyrics and without the rap-rock-whatever bits. I guess Triple H liked that rhytm... or WWE didn't care to write a brand new theme for him.

I like it when two guys join together to form a tag team and they merely combine their entrance themes. Case in point, Bulldog and Lex Luger in 95. That theme didnt last very long as that team didnt last very long. I know that is not the only example too.

anyone remember the first theme Christian used when he betrayed edge.It was exactly like his well known "christian,at last your on your own" theme,except the guitar riff sounded more like a Queen song.I remember it was used for only one raw.Then the next week he had a different riff.

Speaking of Christian's themes, that reminds me of a VERY rare theme that I have been wanting for many years now. When Christian first debuted in the Brood, he had the Brood's theme as his music. There was a period of about a month where he had just left the Brood. I forget why the Brood broke up, but Edge, Christian, and Gangrel all went separate ways. So this was a theme that Christian used immediately after he left the Brood, but he was still keeping his gothic character.
The theme started out with a really creepy mix of violins and organs or something. It then went into a drum beat. It sounded a little bit like the Brood theme. Does anyone remember it?

Don't kill me here guys, but Kane and DX's combined theme was pretty damned cool, IMO. As was Kane and Undertaker's BoD theme. Just the combo of Kane's intro pyro with either of those themes, was kick ass.

I am pretty sure I have this on one of my CD's. Rock used a Hollywood heel theme for one night at NWO 03, with a bunch of words, then it switched to a shorter intro and "IS COOKIN!" instead of a bunch of words.

I was just thinking of that! Only from what I remember, it was a bit speedier than the one he stuck with. I thought that was pretty good, then next thing I know, they changed it...that kinda sucked. Oh...just remembered...K-Kwik and Road Dogg's theme "Gettin' Rowdy" when they were a tag team...that theme was great too...until Road Dogg was canned and the theme was altered...slower, more "gangsta," hardly any rock riffs...IT SUCKED!!

I thought that was just a slowed-down EVIL version of his regular theme. On the subject of themes which you've all been looking for, can anyone tell me what the music Undertaker (in his Ministry Of Dorkness Satan days) came out to at Wrestlemania 15 is called? That was badass. And then the match was just bad.

Did the Dudleys ever use Saliva's version of their theme, Get The Tables, as their theme. I could've sworn they had.
And the funniest thing I had ever seen was when ESPN used the Hardy Boyz theme for a package they were doing on Sportscenter. It's a public domain song, much like Booker T's theme, and I got a chucklle out of them using it.

Dudleyz used the saliva thing for a while before randomly swapping to drop the bombshell for whatever reason
