I grew up with that first one, so that's the one I love the most. I actually kinda hate the second one solely because it's not the first one.
I think I remember them playing the first one over the speakers after the '94 Rumble as the crowd was filing out. If I am remembering correctly, it brings back very fond memories of that night.

I like the 1st one, but my heart says the 2nd because I went to 13.

The first one. Too many memories connected to that classic theme. WrestleMania VI and X were two of my favorite Manias anyway.

Ahh the days when Wrestlemania had porn music. My favorite is the first one...which I'm going to title "Bear Skin Rug #1"

This is the second one linked in the OP. Only without the lyrics present in this version. Still curious that a song about WrestleMania begins with "Are you ready for the Survivor Series?"

The 2nd one was actually produced by Simon Cowell before he was a big name in the music industry

The original, classic theme.

To answer my own question, I love the both of them but the original is Wrestlemania too me. Mene Gene doing the Wrestlemania Report to that theme brings back so many memories. Most websites credit the 2nd one starting from WM 10, untrue, although the song was produced in 1993, they didnt begin using it until WM 11 www.youtube.com/watch?v=0TMLO6WMtNc

This reminded me of one of my favourite random moments on a show called The Hitman And Her (no not *that* Hitman!) from the early 90s, presented by record producer Pete Waterman and kids TV star/failed singer Michaela Strachan. It used to be shown late at night after the pubs had closed and was basically a way for Waterman to cheaply promote his acts/tracks whilst drunken partygoers danced to them at local nightclubs. As he produced the 1992/3 WWF album he used it as an opportunity to play Slam Jam...just watch the dancing! youtu.be/-2zBS3JJkgQ

I grew up with the first one, like many of you, and I associate it with a still (for the most part) prosperous time in the company's history, whereas I associate the second one more with the dark period of the mid-90s. Not to mention the hard rock of the first one just sounds more epic anyway.

This topic is crazy town. I get nostalgia, but the first song is kinda boring, while the second one is a fun little jaunt. It was even better as Linda McMahon's intro song.

How cheesy were the 90's!

This is the second one linked in the OP. Only without the lyrics present in this version. Still curious that a song about WrestleMania begins with "Are you ready for the Survivor Series?" And that it asks "Who will survive", and has "It's fighting to survive" as part of the lyrics.

.....wow. I can honestly say I don't know.
I liked both, do remember a time I preferred the 1st one (because the 2nd one was not it), but still liked the 2nd one too.
And now 20 years after that 2nd theme it's as good as the original is (still) to me.
Gah?!

1990-1994, and it's not even close. I remember writing to Titan Tower asking for a cassette with it and other themes (I even gave them a blank tape!)

The first one by far. That song playing while the matchup screens showed and Lord Alfred or Gene Mean went through the specifics of the card was some saturday morning goodness
