#3 Undertaker

‘graveyard symphony’ theme song is one of the most iconic entrances of all time

There is some theme music a wrestler wishes not to hear when he is in the ring. This ‘graveyard symphony’ theme song is one of them. Add to that a smoky background with blue lights flashing and out comes The Dead Man.

The characterization of The Dead Man is personified by his mysterious entrance along with the theme song. Often the audience has seen, The theme song been played but no one came out from the backstage.

Eventually, Undertaker would emerge from a coffin from the middle of the stage. Eyes covered by the hat. Undertaker’s unsettling theme acts as a large part of why his introduction is the most thrilling and iconic of all times.

#2 Rock

"If you can smell, What The Rock is cooking"

When The Rock left WWE in 2005 to try his luck at Hollywood, his appearances became sparse but heroic. Nothing can fit his stardom like the Hollywood version of his theme song. The magnificent voice in which Dwayne Johnson starts, ’If you can smell, What The Rock is cooking’ was a heartthrob for many fans.

The famous slogan gives away to a bombastic guitar/synthesizer combo that could befit a man such as ‘The People’s Champ’, Rock. For every Rock fan, when he hears the first three seconds of the theme, he and The WWE world knows what is going to come in the next few minutes.

Over the years, Dwayne Johnson has developed himself as a wrestler as well as his character. “The Brahma Bull” has had an increase in his body mass changing from punk to power style wrestling. He has three major tattoos in his body which make his look more deadly. Each tattoo has an untold story in his life.

#3 Stone Cold Steve Austin

Stone Cold Steve Austin

The one thing that sells a theme song to a crowd is the ability to entice and excite the crowd. Stone Cold Steve Austin did that in the right way. The sound of shattering of glass and Stone Cold arriving in the arena was an orgasmic moment back in the nineties. His solid boots down the entrance seem to punctuate every guitar chord of the song.

WWE Composer, Jim Johnston himself considered that this was one of the toughest compositions in his career. For Austin fans, it brings a smile to faces, draws loud pops and performs head bangs while their favorite superstar enters the ring. “I won’t do what you tell me” is both perfectly named in relation to Austin’s gimmick and has a powerful sound which emphasizes the strength and attitude of one of the greatest wrestlers of WWE history.
