1. Edge – ‘Metalingus’
No prizes for guessing the winner of this list – Edge’s ‘Metalingus’ theme song has enthralled audience from its time of inception in 2005.
Edge was portrayed as a frustrated heel, tired of being pulled back and not getting a shot at the WWE Championship. The lyrics meshed well with the calculated desperation that Edge displayed onscreen.
While the song began with Edge’s traditional ‘You think you know me’ , what followed was the series of pyros instantly catching the attention of the audience. The lyrics were pretty motivating as well :
“I have been defeated and brought downdropped to my knees when hope went outoh the time has come to change my ways”
The change for Edge was adopting a more sinister approach and becoming a true headliner in the WWE – but the lyrics had the oomph to inspire anybody who had had a setback and was looking to change his ways.
