Taker's Ministry/Darkside theme wins out for him.

Can you at least throw some commas and periods in there if you're going to insist on butchering the English language?

My Time is Now is actually an excellent theme for a face to have. I think it has been hurt by how lame he has been while being a face and having that theme.

Yea, it gets a bad rap because of what's associated with it by My Time is really a fantastic theme.
It's just simple, but recognizable. The intro to a theme is always important because it marks their entrance and cues the crowd to go crazy.
In that respect his is great. It's not the gong or the glass shattering, but it's up there.

And the repeating horn is catchy, regardless of how you slice it

How many Raws and PPVs have ended with that theme fading out to the WWE logo?

basic thugonomics because the song is edgier and it was before cena became superman...when his raps were actually entertaining and he wasn't family friendly

Cena spits fire on "Basic Thuganomics". I enjoy "My Time Is Now", and it may actually be a better theme song, but I just can't bring myself to not vote for "Basic Thuganomics".
