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 agree.

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

Schoenauer 09-29-2005 02:54 PM

Best character theme: Rob Conway

Jaton 09-29-2005 02:56 PM

Sometimes. Some themes are like "wtf are you doing?"

Jaton 09-29-2005 03:07 PM

It's also hard to deny Undertaker/Kane.

The Gooch 09-29-2005 03:14 PM

I really liked the Opera Christian theme song when he split with Edge.

Favre4Ever 09-29-2005 03:17 PM

Steve Blackman, Kane, Chris Benoit, Big Bossman, Steve Austin.

Corkscrewed 09-29-2005 03:48 PM

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

Cuzziebro 09-29-2005 06:30 PM

Best for character: Rob Van Dam (Hes deffinatly One of a Kind)

Stone Cold's is up there, because once the music hit, you knew and felt that someone was getting their ass beat

"Enter The Sandman" for Sandman in ECW. I know I know it was totally stolen, but still...

Loose Cannon 09-29-2005 06:41 PM

I think Dat the best One is Cool Like carlito's theme.

Londoner 09-29-2005 07:53 PM

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.
