It says on his website that the band Minor Threat introduced him to straight edge. If WWE can get someone to remix one of their songs, and make it a little heavier , it could be an awesome theme for him. www.youtube.com/watch?v=9UaE8JabojgSo what other songs would you like to see as Punk's new theme? The "FIYYYYYRRRRRRRRe BUUUUURRRNNNNNNS ALLLLLLLLWAYYYYYYYS" just doesn't cut it anymore. EDIT: The link I put up isnt the song "Straight Edge" It's actually called Minor Threat by Minor Threat... I couldnt find the other song.

I always did get a little slice of amusement from CM Punk being straightedge and not having any punk or even what you might call straightedge music. I never have liked his themesong honestly.

He should come out to NOFX's lounge cover of "Straight Edge". I mark for NOFX.

I'm still wondering why it is that everyone's like "OMGZ KILLSWITCH ENGAGE =/= PUNK" when in fact he has never had any punk music to enter to, ever.

Well I don't know about Killswitch Engage in general, just not a fan of his theme. They may have another song they perform that fits him better. I just think a guy named CM Punk is just begging for a punk rock song. Like Sandman had Enter Sandman, it's a no brainer.

(this is comming from my little brother who is straight edge as well)
The straight edge lifestyle has slowly become more associated with Hardcore music than punk music over the years. Bands like Minor Threat started the whole straight edge craze, but hardcore bands have really adopted it in recent years, as punk isn't as big of an influance as it used to be. That could be why Killswitch Engage has been used. That and the fact that they had a great, heavy song left over when they didn't use it permanently for Randy Orton's theme.

I'm straight edge as well and that is true to an extent. I'm not saying all straight edge music is all hardcore or all punk, rather it's a mix. Me, personally, listen to more punk music but I also listen to my fair share of hardcore. I'd say about 65:35 of punk to hardcore music for me... although I listen to "nu-metal" and other various forms of rock including ska-punk etc. etc. Mainly anymore, there isn't a definate type of straight edge rock music. Usually just hardcore or punk, depending on who you talk to. PS: I think Minor Threat sucks even though people act like they are the greatest ever. That goes with the Misfits too... extremely overrated. They have a couple good songs but overall... eh.

You can easily classify two of his ROH themes as "Punk". Miseria Carnate by AFI ( used up until his title win and heel turn) and Night Train by The Bouncing Souls (used at Punk: Final Chapter)

AFI is still punk even if it can be emo-ish... not true emo but today's emo. Thank ya ole good chap.

The Bouncing Souls rule. However, there is no contest in my mind on what would be the greatest entrance theme ever: "Heart Attack American" by The Bronx. www.youtube.com/watch?v=l82YyMzKAQ4 (for the song) Holy f***ing shit, this song is just so incredibly loud and brutal and honest. It's perfect for an energetic intro and it would seriously be one of the best licensed themes of all time. As far as Minor Threat goes, no way in Hell would they ever let WWE use one of their songs. I love Minor Threat (I actually post on a punk music message board 10x for years longer than I've been posting here) but it would be wrong for CM Punk, especially with the nature that WWE generally wants their characters to feel more accessible than a small fed. Also, emoney, what are your favorite bands?

FYI, Howard Jones (KSE's singer) is straight edge and has been a huge fan of the company for years.

Punk has possibly the most bland theme of any champion right now.
