    A lot of the themes from 80’s WWF still bang. Bad Street USA, Big Boss Man, and American Dream being personal faves.

    Just about every theme Motorhead did for Triple H was decent. Though I may be biased, because Motorhead.

    For more recent stuff, I LOVE Claudio’s babyface theme (the punk/rock version of 1812 Overture)

    On a more personal note, this was my CAW’s theme back when the WWE PS3 games would let you use mp3’s as entrance music.

    I’m a strong believer that a wrestling theme should immediately tell you who’s coming out. Mick Foley and Stone Cold are great examples. RVD coming out to Walk was always great, as well as Sandman coming out to Enter Sandman!

    For entrances I always loved Kane with the ring post pyro. More recently the Death Triangle lighting up each member one by one was great. I also love the spin around the Gunns.

    Dark Side, WWF the Music Volume 3.

    If you are lifting the dumbells or weights at the gym, running on the road, out fishing at twlight, it was one of the few Wrestling themes I had on my various mp3 players over the years. There were many, but this one was something special to me. It’s a top tier theme song for me.

    There have been so many over the years. Some honroable mentions to theme groups I don’t care for, CFO$ did great work with Bobby Roode’s theme and as much as I hate Def Rebel, Roman’s Head of the Table theme is top notch, I don’t like his current theme, it takes too long to get going.

    Licensed songs, Edge’s Never Gonna Stop Rob Zombie theme or CM Punk’s original edit of Cult of Personality or Kane’s Slow Chemical.

    Licensed one time use: Undertaker edit of Johnny Cash’s Ain’t No Grave.

    Obviously not just one, and so many more to add onto this. I think my ultimate preference though is when WWE had Johnston doing individual themes for the workers, and working with them to help craft them and updating them with minor edits as the characters evolved, no he didn’t always hit it out of the park, but his themes are more memorable and didn’t require just a name on the titantron or the performers name being said before the music starts.
