Battle of the Themes #14 - Randy Orton

[Xero]

"Survive If I Let You" barely came out on top, winning out by two votes for Taz.

The next BOTT is The Legend Killer, The Viper, "Vintage" Randy Orton!

Keep in mind that I am NOT including stable/team themes for singles, which is why stuff like Rated RKO and Evolution aren't here.

Actually, Voices wins. Fits him perfectly.

[Xero]

You know, I debated including that. Did he ever use that as an in-ring entrance?

[Lock Jaw]

I think he did briefly after coming back from injuries. I could be remembering things wrong.

[James Steele]

He also used that Killswitch Engage song CM Punk now has made famous.

[D Mac]

Voices with Burn in my Light a close second.

[parkmania]

Definitely a tough pick, but Voices just barely edges out Burn in my Light.

[RGWhat316]

Voices definitely.

[Jeritron]

I wanted to vote for the Evolution music, which he entered to for a long time. That was when he was best

[Wolfpack423]

Of the themes up there I am going with Burn In My Light, as much as I like Voices, Burn In My Light is one of my all time favorite themes. However, i voted other because his best theme was Line In The Sand-the Evolution theme.

[Xero]

He also used that Killswitch Engage song CM Punk now has made famous.

One night.

[Godfather4Life]

BIML

[Lock Jaw]

I hated Burn in my Light. Terrible theme.

[Droford]

I cant vote for the song that always got mocked..

"HEY..RANDY ORTONS GAY!"

[The Gold Standard]

Voices is perfect for his character now, but my all time favorite was Burn in my Light.

[James Diesel]

I said other simply because he used "This Fire Burns" (CM punk's Theme)

[XCaliber]

This one although it would suit him better now than it did at the time he originally used it:

[DAMN iNATOR]

I used to fucking hate Voices with a passion when Orton first started using it, wishing he'd kept Burn In My Light. But damned if Voices hasn't grown on me, so that's what I went with in a near toss-up for me.

One of the few times I've been entertained by Cena.

[Jeritron]

I've never heard a mashup theme that I didn't think was stupid.

Except Xpac and Kane's, but that was just Kane's intro into the DX music. None of the choppy editing.

[DAMN iNATOR]

Not even Dupree/Suzuki? That's widely regarded as one of the most seamless mash-ups, as far as transitions between the themes, and thus one of the best of all time.

Oh, well. To each their own, I guess.:-\

JeriShow

nuff said.


as for Orton, Voices.

[Seth82]

gotta go with Burn in my Light

[thejamminone]

Voices

[XCaliber]

Would have voted for BIML had it been this version that was used:

Also, Evolution
