It feels like everyone has new music, it all sucks, you can't tell who anyone is...changing a ton of themes all at once is super confusing to a crowd also.

I'd guess so they don't have to pay any sort of publishing royalties in the event CFO$ still owned portions of those themes.

The theme song situation is really bad right now. There were so many times tonight where someone's theme would start and I'd have no idea who it was. Then again, the Rumble is supposed to be all about unpredictability... mission accomplished?

Well in brilliant fashion no one knew who anyone was when their music hit tonight, you can't change everyone's theme all at once... I agree. It's been a terrible recent influx since about December-ish, and so many of the new melodies and signature elements being bold enough to cut through the announce teams talking over them, it's just poor timing to do all of these all at once. It's like having the draft right before Survivor Series.

They also decided to debut three themes tonight for Boogs, Moss, and Holland. All during the Rumble. The one match where their music really matters.

Anybody got that GIF of Corbin from his NXT days saying "I have no idea who these people are"?
Because that would sum up my reaction to most of the entrance themes tonight.
Granted, it would also be the exact same reaction to the names that went with those themes.
Madcap Moss? Ridge Holland? Austin Theory? Aliyah? Who the hell are these goobers?

If this exact WWE with these booking and choices they make for everything were in charge about 25 years ago there wouldn't be a WWE....I see why they so desperately don't want competition they wouldn't know what to do if they were in any danger.

Because Vince is a cheap-ass. Also the same reason that my DVD version of Wrestlemania VI has so many of the classic wrestler theme songs dubbed over with generic terrible crappy music.

It's not generic crappy music!!! Dusty's theme is the theme of the UK version of Wheel of Fortune, I'll have you know!

It didn't exactly help that the camera kept cutting to random crowd shots for every other entrance. Sure would be fun to see what wrestler they are reacting to...

I hate the Dirty Dogs theme because it has the GLORIOUS Tease but then doesn’t play it.

So many generic themes. Makes no one feel like a star.

Glad this was mentioned. I have it in my notes as well, and mentioned in it my rating post.
Nice to know I wasn't alone.

When Liv Morgan’s theme hit I genuinely thought it was Alexa Bliss coming out.
All the themes are so bland and generic just now. I actually liked CFO$ as they used to come out with some catchy tunes.

They need to do something about the new music. It’s all very generic. At least add a catchy soundbyte to the beginning.

when I was a kid everyone had a unique theme that often told you everything you needed to know about a wrestler. even the jobbers and lower midcard guys. nowadays everyone has interchangeable trap or butt rock that tells you nothing about the wrestler on top of feeling super dated. I'd take Rob Conway's theme over this.

The music situation has really gotten miserable. Inexcusable that you are getting dusted here when you sitting in elephant dollars, talk about not giving a f***
