It happens, sort of like how Orton hated his pre-Voices theme, was given CM Punk's first theme briefly, they removed it despite Orton liking it more since it didn't suit him, and it was given to Punk later on.
Kind of a shame James Storm's WWE tenure was so short-lived. Guess even that is better than Harris'.

Pretty sure "Glorious" was meant for somebody other than Bobby Roode, as well.

I can’t even imagine James Storm walking out to AJ’s music. It just doesn’t fit him at all so I don’t know how CFO$ thought it would.

I can't confirm this, but I wouldn't be surprised if MVP's theme was originally made for Boogeyman. The lyrics match up to Boogey's gimmick pretty well.

This is nothing new. “Real American” was originally made for The U.S. Express tag team.

I think I remembered reading somewhere that it was. As for AJs theme and James Storm. I would expect something with more of a country sound but the lyrics work. Lots of southern boy stuff. Works for AJ too as he is southern, but it has never been a big part of his character. Something along the lines of Gangstagrass ' Justified theme is what I would want for Storm. |

Spooky Boogeyman coming out to that rap song just wouldn't work at all lol. I wonder if he was supposed to be some jacked up hoss nicknamed "The Boogeyman" originally. |

I reckon that the James Storm version probably had more focus on the country slide guitar bits, with the rap beat being quieter in the background, and they just switched the mix around a little for AJ because he always seems to have some rap element to his themes. |

Huh, that's interesting; I remember people speculating that AJ's theme would've originally gone to the Briscoes if they had signed with WWE, so that's a little different.

Yeah, I do think he made a good decision for himself, I was meaning more in general, like if WWE would have outbid them. I get why they didn't try to, though. I do wonder if James will get another chance. He's not getting younger or anything, but WWE's scene is also less crowded than it was, so it's not out of the realm of possibility. |

So, ironically, it was James Storm who didn’t really want none?

Most likely he will end up an agent/producer. Plenty of his TNA buddies are already there. And he would be a great agent for the tag division if they are going to try and revitalize it. |
