It's been a while, but I'm going to start doing these regularly again. #9 was Trish Stratus and "Time to Rock and Roll" wins out. Next up, for the TENTH ANNIVERSARY THREAD, it's time for The Texas Rattlesnake himself, "Stone Cold" Steve Austin.

#2 for sure. That's the theme that's synonymous with Austin.

#2 is a classic, but my personal favorite is the Disturbed theme.

Glass Shatters. Anything Disturbed touches turns into gold.

Glass Shatters. The Best.

The ringmaster theme sounds like adam bombs... voted for i won't do what you tell me

#2 is classic , however Glass shatters is too awesome to ignore and it is still disturbed's best song.

How about some love for the song "Oh Hell Yeah"

Hollywood Blondes :(

I honestly never knew he had more than one theme (which I thought was #2, of course).

Never used as a theme.


Tag team.

Austin's earlier Hell on Earth theme, Rattlesnake V1 and especially V2 are pretty immense.

And Austin's first 'Stone Cold' theme, 'Hell Frozen Over' was always better than I Won't Do What You Tell Me: the bass, the sirens, etc.

So having said all that, I'll go with Disturbed as its my favourite one on the list.

Venomous (his main Alliance theme) was pretty nice, too. Austin has always had great themes.

Goin' with Good Ol' #2...also, even though it's not listed as an option, Austin's Alliance V.2 theme was pretty sweet back in the early '00s.

Glass shatters wins for me.

Disturbed at its finest

# 2 for me

I don't ever remember that Hell On Earth that just sounds like a fan made remix. I for one have never actually heard it being used on tv. Anywho of these choices I definetly would have to say Glass Shatters. To me it blew his most classic theme out of the water. I also liked his Power Trip Theme but it wasn't on here but I should be.

Austin's Two-Man Power Trip (or whatever they called them) theme isn't on here, because it was a theme he used as part of a tag team and not in individual competition.

Less than an hour to go and it's tied.

LETS GO GLASS SHATTERS!!

Glass Shatters, one of the few times a theme can become even more badass
