Ride of the Valkyries. Its a terrible wrestling theme. I suppose you think "Also Sprach Zarathusa" and "The Great Gates of Kiev" are bad themes too. WRESTLING themes pay attention to the words.Valkyria is a awesome song. But for wrestling?it doesnt work

Morrison's themes under that gimmick come to mind. First there was a Jimi Hendrix song, now Ain't No Make Believe. Both good, but neither really appropriate - Ain't No Make Believe is pretty damn good, though, and I wouldn't change it. Voices comes to mind too. Back when Orton got it it didn't fit him whatsoever. True, though given how much he apparently hated "Nothing you can Say", guess he got big enough to where he had the pull to get a new one. The name of the song is actually "Burn in My Light" by Mercy Drive.

I'm surprised no one said Savage...even though it's classic, I think it would have been more suiting for his real-life brother.

Monty Brown's awful fake soul music on ECW. He was meant to be a beast and an "alpha male" power guy, just totally didn't fit at all. "Awful"? You have an odd way of spelling "amazingly awesome".

But for wrestling?it doesnt work Yeah, I know what he said. I'm just seeing if he thinks that those two songs, which are also used as wrestling themes, are bad too just because they're not what is usually thought of for it.

At least with classical themes you dont have to pay royalties.

How about the Big Bossman coming out to Jive Soul Bro? Yeah I know it was because he was managed by Slick, but still, it totally didnt fit the character.

The name of the song is actually "Burn in My Light" by Mercy Drive. I was being lazy, but thank you. Triple H's theme when he joined the Corporation, while pretty good, just didn't suit him.

Orton using "This Fire Burns" by Killswitch Engage just didn't fit at all, which is probably why he was back to "Burn in my Light" one week later. Worked for CM Punk, though.
And I'd be remiss if I didn't mention the sped-up techno remix of "All Eyes on Me" for Candice Michelle. Not that it didn't fit her, it was just godawful!
