Jerry Lawler is reused too. Originally it was Harley Race.
Oooh oooh, and CM Punk used to come out to “This Fire Burns”, but before that it was used one time, for one night, by Randy Orton. Orton didn’t feel it was a good fit though.
Orton was sick of his generic sounding song that just kept saying “HEY!”. Guess he was hearing those voices in his head…
And that’s how CM Punk got his first wwe theme.
HBK is known for his theme “sexy boy”, but it’s actually the second version of that song. The first version had Sherri Martell singing a shortened, but mostly the same version of the same lyrics.
I’ll probably post more of these as I remember them. I know hulk hogans real american is reused, but I can’t remember who originally had it.
Hell yeah, keep 'em coming! I don’t have as easy access to YouTube as I once did, so I haven’t been getting my info dumps like I like to turn on
I didn’t realize Randy had that song first. That’s funny. I knew Sherri had done a version of Sexy Boy, but was hazy on the details. Lawler’s is new to me, but I can’t even think of his music right now
Lawlers doesn’t have lyrics, so it’s hard to describe.
It’s like HUUUUUUU HUUUUUUUUUU HUUUU HU HUUU HUUUUUUUUUUU HUUUU HUUUU HUUUUU HUUU HU HU HU HU
If that were a trumpet, and sounding royal.
Burn in My Light wasn’t so bad. I think overall I preferred it to Voices. But WWE’s version did have a several heys in it. The actual song has I want to say 5 total, but WWE’s edit had about 7 in the first minute and a half.
My understanding was that the company didn’t like it for him.
It should also be noted he doesn’t like Voices either.
