I'm disappointed it wasn't Blue Danube.

His new theme should just be Big Bill singing the Price is Right song like he did with Blue Pants.

I like it, his heel persona seems so... basic.
Like, he's gone straight black leather, all serious, playing up his wealth, all the cheapest ways to show he's totally serious and tough, while running away. It's like an 8 year old's version of "cool badass".
So he's picked one of the most basic classical songs that EVERYONE knows to death that sounds vaguely cool, classy and ominous which makes it altogether a big weak and childish, just like the rest of him now.

It works, dude has gone from one of the most kid friendly acts in AEW to a manchild, and so it checks that he is, like, totally Basic.

Yeah, if he was suddenly ACTUALLY smooth, threatening etc. it'd come more out of left field, plus starting like this he can evolve the character over time and BECOME that.

I hope his new licensed music is like, some generic nu metal shit. I think that'd really sell the "sheltered kid trying to become an edgelord" persona even more.

I thought it was awesome. Jack Perry's heel character is a spoiled, entitled, "high society" Silver spoon brat. Classical music has always been associated with those types of people. To me, it's not all that much different from the original Hunter Hearst Helmsley entering to Ode to Joy. Then, there's the fact that Beethoven's 5th is generally believed to represent "fate knocking at the door," which plays into Jack acting like he was fated to be a singles champion as the basis for his heel turn. I also enjoy how he went from a catchy singalong song to one that it is literally impossible to sing with. Just cements the heel turn. Jack Perry is a dude from LA walking out in a leather jacket. It just does not fit You need to spend more time around LA try-hards (influencers or techbros). It totally fits and there's a lot of them.

The 90210 theme was RIGHT THERE.
The Beethoven theme is terrible for him.

Why is this guy a heel to begin with? Because his babyface character the past year has been f***ing arsewater, and he needed a reset. Terrible this heel run may be on many levels, but it's the most he's entertained me since he was still friends with Luchasaurus.

Since he has the FTW belt, his new theme should be that clip of Taz singing his old theme

Think they just went for something that's impossible to sing or dance along with and is the polar opposite to what he had before. It's actually not impossible to sing to. It would get annoying though. Also, anyone can move their hands like a conductor.

I actually laughed at Jack literally hiding behind a child this week and instantly hated myself for being entertained by him for a moment
