“The World is Watching” is my favorite.
Before they changed it 100 times and replaced JR with “The Champ is HERE” and “Hulkamania is running wild” with “Everybody’s got a price!”
It just didn’t work, lol.

When the attitude intro played you know shit was about to go down. I remember being let down as a kid when they replaced it in 2002 with the toned down one. It's not a bad intro, just not nearly as hype as the attitude one. |

Just because it was more the era I was able to watch consistently, I was giddy they got the post WWF intro with Bischoff’s face flashing for a second. They shoulda included the boos for Bischoff's face and the Cheers for Austin's face. They didn't include Bruno in the signature before the current one. |

I get why they didn’t since they were probably production ones but that would have gotten a nostalgia pop from me. |

I get why they didn’t since they were probably production ones but that would have gotten a nostalgia pop from me. Those were done by opening up the arena audio. Sometimes, if you were listening to the Spanish audio, you could hear the live crowd pop as soon as these intros would start. It's odd they included the Bischoff intro but omitted the ones with Austin and both of them. |

And same because it seemed like there was 20,000 variations of “The World is Watching”. |

They missed the original “The World is Watching” signature (where it said “The Power is Back” next to the WWE logo at the end), but, that’s probably due to it having Chris Benoit on it. |

Hogan was with TNA at the time, so the change of his soundbite seemed like WWE being hilariously petty. I always found it amusing how they refused to acknowledge Kurt Angle for like, 10 years when he was in TNA. And then when Hogan joined, they tried to make out that guys like Ted DiBiase and Andre The Giant were on his level. Like him or not, you can’t ignore Hulk Hogan. You just can’t. Now, I feel that’s changed a little bit.. I mean, they’ve mentioned and referenced AEW on air multiple times. So hopefully they don’t try to act like Chris Jericho and Dean Ambrose never existed. It’s funny because TNA wasn’t even close to threatening WWE. At any point. They were a valid alternative for a while but ratings wise... they were never close. Even if WWE mentioned them every week, I doubt that would change. |

It used to have a quick clip of Jericho clicking his pen and adding someone to his List, but he got replaced by The Bar after he appeared in the AEW launch party. |

Everything was much more fun in the 80's.
My favorite was the second one, even if it looked identical to a flight path Superman took.
In the quote intro Cena's sounded so incredibly lame.
