What theme song do you think was just perfect in capturing who a wrestler or who a wrestler's character truly was? Also, who just had the best?
Best for character: Ultimate Warrior
Best overall IMO: Rick Rude

I got long sideburns
And my hair slicked back
I'm gonna do your town in my pink cadillac
I'm just a Honky Tonk Man (he's a Honky Tonk Man)
I'm just a Honky Tonk Man (he's a Honky Tonk Man)
I'm just a Honky Tonk Man
I'm cool, I'm cocky, I'm bad
I pick a mean guitar
I wear blue suede shoes
You're gotta hear me sing the snakeskin blues
I'm just a Honky Tonk Man (he's a Honky Tonk Man)
I'm just a Honky Tonk Man (he's a Honky Tonk Man)
I'm just a Honky Tonk Man
I'm cool, I'm cocky, I'm bad
Roll over Elvis, let the Honky Tonk Man show you how to rock n' roll
Elvis Who? He wouldn't get a tune if it had handles on it.
Ooooooh, have mercy, baby
Let the Honky Tonk Man pick that guitar
It's Honky Tonk Mania runnin' wild
I got Peggy Sue behind me
The colonel's in the back
I'm gonna do your town in my pink cadillac
I'm just a Honky Tonk Man (he's a Honky Tonk Man)
I'm just a Honky Tonk Man (he's a Honky Tonk Man)
I'm just a Honky Tonk Man
I'm cool, I'm cocky, I'm bad
I'm just a Honky Tonk Man (he's a Honky Tonk Man)
I'm just a Honky Tonk Man (he's a Honky Tonk Man)
I'm just a Honky Tonk Man (he's a Honky Tonk Man)
I'm just a Honky Tonk Man (he's a Honky Tonk Man)
I'm just a Honky Tonk Man
I'm cool, I'm cocky, I'm bad
I'm just a Honky Tonk Man
I'm cool, I'm cocky, I'm b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-bad

I personally don't think it fits him all that greatly. I don't think any of the themes done by real bands do..

I agree.
I think Johnson (WWE's guy) really has a talent for fitting the theme's to the actual wrestlers. Genius.

JBL's theme is pretty good in portraying his character too. It's a nice blend of cowboy western and triumphant moneymaker rich guy.

It's kind of hard to chose the best, but my favourite one is HHH's, he always has the best themes and they always suit him, and then after that is Kurt Angle.

Going to say a few that have been over looked
Character
Tommy Dreamer: Man in the Box
Jushin Thunder Lygers' ( Corrent me if I'm wrong, but the character I know is based off a comic/cartoon, and I believe his theme is the theme from the cartoon.)
Diesel
Razor Ramone
Cactus Jack
Mankind
DUDE LOVE!!!! DUUUUUDE LOVE YEAH YEAH YEAH!
Overall
Owen Hart's "Rocket" theme, and his "Enough is Enough" theme.
Hollywood Blondes
Chavo Classic

NB - AJ Style's theme is the bollocks. I have it on my mp3 player for the gym.

I can't believe I forgot this theme...
Best character theme.... Goldust!
TerranRich
10-05-2005, 06:31 PM
Here are my picks for character themes that best suited their characters...
Gold-Lust best suited Goldust because it just sounded like a theme he would have. A mysterious entrance theme indeed.
Metalingus (Alter Bridge) is a great theme for Edge. "On this day, I see clearly now / Everything has come to life." It just speaks of coming to the realization that now is the time to sieze the moment...and use that goddamn MITB title shot for God's sake! :wave:
The Ho Train is THE perfect theme for Godfather. What better entrance music for a pimp than music that sounds like it came straight from a 70's porno? Pimpin' must surely be difficult.
There are more, but I can't think of any more right now, seeing as how I'm at work...drinking a nice cold Bud Light. :D I love my job. ;)

That, too. I was going to mention his theme. It's perfect for his character and I laugh everytime I see that corny-ass titantron of his. :-D
