WWE Money in the Bank Match Participants 19 Name a Wrestler That. Music Quiz / Wrestling Theme Songs (Audio Clips) Random Music or WWE Quiz Name the wrestler/team that matches each theme song.Most of the replacement songs for WWE versions aren't even this trope in action, as they're usually not even close to the original pieces. As it turns out, WCW using this trope has probably saved WWE a ton of headaches, as they (usually) haven't had to bother with editing music on their archived WCW broadcasts, and certainly not to the same extent as they've had to self-edit. The official NWO theme used on television was never actually used in a WCW video game, instead being replaced by a very, very similar re-recording that would go on to be used in TNA as well. This is especially notable in WCW Backstage Assault, which had many entrance themes redone and some just getting a stock generic track shared among them instead of redoing or using themes that sounded too close to real songs. Weirdly enough WCW regularly did this to ITSELF for video games, with JHV of their own already JHV themes for wrestlers like NWO members, DDP, and Jeff Jarrett.
Hulk Hogan's first WCW theme, "American Made", was an obvious JHV of his WWF theme "Real American". Although the remix could also have been made to make it sound more like a wresting theme than somebody's graduation. Randy Savage had previously used "Pomp & Circumstances" in WWF, but it was given a rock makeover in WCW. Even more baffling than writing covers of songs they already owned, was WCW rewriting songs that were already in the public domain. Way before Jimmy Hart debuted in WCW, there were still JHV's for example, Dustin Rhodes' theme before the Slam Jam album was a JHV of "Money for Nothing", and the York Foundation used a JHV of the theme of Dallas theme and in the JCP/NWA days, there was the JHV of Giorgio Moroder's "Chase" from the soundtrack of the film Midnight Express that (who else?) The Midnight Express used. Believe it or not, the nWo Wolfpac's infamous rap theme song is actually a JHV of "Burn" by Militia (a little-known rap group), which the Wolfpac used as their theme at house shows. It's especially obvious when one discovers that the JHV was titled "Craz ed". The Outsiders' pre-nWo theme music in WCW was a JHV of "Crazy" by Seal. The title track is a JHV of The Nasty Boys' WWE theme, sung appropriately enough by Hart himself, who did a few songs on the album. Most notable is "I Wanna Be a Hulkamaniac", which is a JHV of Owen Hart's original entrance music.

When Rick Rude headed to WCW he used a knockoff of Janet Jackson's "Black Cat", and his final theme, "Simply Ravishing" was very similar to Whitney Houston's "How Will I Know" (complete with a Whitney soundalike on vocals). They actually used the real thing during some points of their career. Beginner dance workout"Stone Cold" Steve Austin's theme is actually a JHV of another JHV. Compare the DX theme's "We just got tired of doing what we're told what to do" to these words of RATM's song, "And now you do what they told ya," and "Fuck you I won't do what you tell me! Fuck you I won't do what you tell me!" This is what may have led to the erroneous assumption for a while that DX's theme was actually made by RATM. The lyrics both speak of rebellion. D-Generation X's theme is a lyrical JHV of Rage Against the Machine's "Killing in the Name". With "Enter Sandman" it was a necessity. The Sandman, too.but not so much (it DOES bear some resemblance to Metallica's "Enter Sandman", but again, not so much). The same thing happened with Balls Mahoney. Speaking of former ECW guys, Tommy Dreamer's WWE theme is suspiciously similar to his original ECW music, "Man in the Box" by Alice in Chains. It's original title, "I Won't Do What You Tell Me", is an allusion to this. Word of God says Austin's theme was modeled off of "Bulls on Parade". Goldberg's entrance theme in WWE was a suspiciously similar song of his original WCW entrance theme (an awesome piece of stock music), due to the rights to the song not being available. Eric Bischoff's debut theme in WWE was AC/DC's "Back in Black", but he used a JHV called "I'm Back" by Ted Nigro for every subsequent appearance. Even ECW (not exactly concerned about copyright) used to have a cover version by Motörhead on hand just in case. Daniel Bryan apparently actually did get a mild JHV of his memetic pre-WWE theme "The Final Countdown" in Florida Championship Wrestling, but for storyline reasons he has to use The Miz's music in WWE NXT.

Christian's Waterproof Blonde version of "Just Close Your Eyes", later covered by Story of the Year and Bedlam's Gate, is itself actually the live-band-recording Jimmy Hart Composite of two of his previous themes, his theme immediately after breaking up with Edge, "At Last" (which itself—in an earlier iteration—was a suspiciously similar song of "Bohemian Rhapsody" by Queen) and this theme in The Brood, "Blood Brother". Victoria had previously used t.A.T.u.'s "All the Things She Said" but was given a lyrics-less cover version for video games and DVD releases. WWE Diva Mickie James' entrance theme is pretty obviously a suspiciously similar song of "My Sharona" by The Knack and "Mickey" by Toni Basil. The Blue Meanie's WWE theme is a JHV of Tinman's "18 Strings", which in itself is a JHV of Nirvana's "Smells Like Teen Spirit". Percy Watson's theme seems to be a speed-up JHV of Lil' Jon's "What You Gonna Do". Samoa Joe's WWE entrance theme is essentially "Simon Says" by Pharoahe Monch. But later was given a rock version of "Ride of the Valkyries" called " Flight of the Valkyries." Hart himself, which is suspiciously similar to Rick Springfield's song "Jessie's Girl". The Wrestling Album, WWE's first album of mostly wrestlers' theme music, includes the song "Eat Your Heart Out, Rick Springfield", written and performed by Mr. If you listen closely, the melody and instrumentation resemble "Money" by Pink Floyd. ![]() ![]() Kelly Kelly's theme is a softer version of Destiny's Child's "Lose My Breath".
