Admit it, you at one point or another were swooped up in the WWE craze known as "Fandango-ing". The dance and singing sensation that nearly eclipsed Daniel Bryan's "YES" and Stone Cold's "WHAT?" chants.

After Fandango formally made his main roster debut in 2012, he would eventually find himself in a feud with Chris Jericho. The feud led to the two facing each other in a match at WrestleMania 29, where the rookie defeated the former WWE Champion, much to the surprise of many.

The next night, Fandango would face-off against Kofi Kingston, and while he was built as a heel, Fandango's theme song had captivated fans so much that they simply could not stop singing it. They were even humming along to the tune and doing a finger-poke-like dance to the beat.

Fans were recorded doing the dance and singing Fandango's theme song well after his matches were over, with some fan recordings showing people singing them as they left the building. However, it didn't stop there.

Fans clearly wanted to continue having fun on their own time, and many fans would eventually run to iTunes to try and download Fandango's theme song. This caused the song to skyrocket from the 175th spot to the 11th spot in one day on the UK chart. A remarkable achievement for a WWE theme song that has zero words to it!
