Jim Johnston did not leave WWE.
And that theme, Xero, was also used for U.S. Express's one-time appearance at the RAW 15th Anniversary show. |

And... it just goes to show you how much that theme has been re-used. I was furthering your point.

Maybe paying those artists explains part of the reason for Paul Heyman going bankrupt.

They always used cover versions in ECW.
And Raven used Offspring's Come Out And Play to the best of my memory, Rollermacka. |

They used cover versions for Video releases and maybe for TV (I'm not 100% sure on TV). They did use at least some real songs live.
I believe I heard they don't need to pay royalties for live performances, only for releases and possibly pretapes. Which is how WWE used Enter Sandman and then cut it from the DVD. Then again, maybe they just slipped under the radar. Doesn't ROH use real music? |

Yeah, I guess ECW may have used the real versions live and dubbed the cover versions over it for DVD releases back in the day. I have a few ECW DVDs that are noticably dubbed.

Ah, so that's how they managed to circumvent paying royalties. Thanks, CAC & Xero.
ROH used real music, but is starting to use stock production music as well now. That shows promise. TNA doesn't even do that. Perhaps they should. |

yea WWE, but I haven't liked to many themes the past couple years. They've been on this Rock/Punk Rock kick for the past couple years and a lof of themes sound the same to me. They even use these type songs for thier PPV "themes"

They were ripoffs, bot WCW did have some great ones. They're more memorable to me. The Artist's, M.I. Smooth, 3 Count. Basically the qirky undercard themes were better imo.

TNA does do mostly ripped-off themes but at least a few are good for laughs, such as Lethal, Shark Boy, Eric Young (since he is "afraid" of his pyro and it always catches him "off-guard"), and a couple others.

As a rule, WWF/E always has the best songs. Part of that is simply that they have a better budget, but mostly, it's because most of their songs fit the characters. Even when it's a production theme, they are usually fairly appropriate (The Hardy Boys, for example).

Yep they do. Some are remixed a little bit, and some are just the songs themselves. Like Jack Evans has "911" by Eminem, but with a different intro. While Austin Aries uses the actual "Personal Jesus" by Marilyn Manson.

^ This man knows his stuff. I'm just now adding ROH themes to Xylot Themes, and he's right.
