Billion-dollar company, ten-cent music. I'm not looking forward to Lacey's new generic theme when she returns.

Madcap Moss? Ridge Holland? Austin Theory? Aliyah? Who the hell are these goobers? It's not too far-fetched to assume that this is why fans aren't tuning in droves.

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! My disappointment that this isn't on the Network version is immeasurable.

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. Never more was this more egregious than when Pat "BOOGS SUPERFAN" Mcafee bluntly said "I didn't know that was his music!" for Boogs rumble entrance.

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? I know who Austin Theory is from NXT, when he was with Johnny and Candice Gargano, which only reminds me that NXT 1.0 was actually better at making people stand out than the main roster is at the moment. As for the others, I think Aliyah is the one with the racist tweets, Madcap Moss I couldn't pick out of a line-up of one, and Ridge Holland feels very "trick question, I just made that one up".

Apollo's new theme is the best of these new ones cause he screams his name at the start, so you know it's him.
Edit: Wait a minute, he was not in the rumble match yesterday....

At this point I'm very much a lapsed fan. I tuned out of almost all WWE programming a couple of years ago. I recognise names from this board, but have never actually seen them. The only one I have literally never heard of even on this board is Aliyah.

The issue is that 'Wrestling theme goblin' isn't a job you're going to have if you're actually talented. WWE got lucky that Jim Johnston was basically competent and CFO$ weren't that but they could at least write an entrance hook in several different styles. The guy they have now is production library tier

CFO$ could be inconsistent (loved their Nakamura theme, but the Dean Ambrose one was ass). But as repetitive as they could be, at least there was a hook where you recognized who the theme was for. What I've heard of the new stuff is just really generic and bland. Doesn't grab you one way or another.
Is it def rebel or whatever their name is still doing these themes?

God, if I had to play some kind of game where I have to guess whose theme is playing I'd probably fail miserably.

Well if there is one thing I can atleast hold onto with Io still in NXT is that her banger of a theme remains intact.
