I'm sure there has probably been a thread or multiple threads regarding this same thing, but I'm watching Legends of Wrestling "Rivalries 1" and they're talking Steve Austin vs. Vince McMahon. They're showing the Mike Tyson segment and man, it made me realize how badass Austin's '97-'98 theme song was. It just went hard and fit him so much better than the one it changed to or the Disturbed one. Of course, I've always preferred this theme song but I figured I'd make a thread asking people about prior theme songs for people that they preferred.
Steve Austin - 1997 Christian - Waterproof Blonde Owen Hart - King of Harts John Cena - Basic Thuganomics Triple H - My Time Drew McIntyre - Broken Dreams Kane - Slow Chemical
Those are the ones I can remember off the top of my head, I'm sure you guys will come up with more.

This theme is constantly made fun of, but I loved the American Males song.
Interestingly, another song I loved was Buff Bagwell's Buff Daddy song. However, if any of those two songs deserves to be made fun of it's Buff's. All it says is "Buff...Buff Daddy...Buff Daddy" Yes, there's other stuff littered throughout the song, but it has LESS words than American Males. I never understood the hatred. Sure it repeats American Males throughout the chorus,but there are verses. Buff's is literally just Buff Daddy through a majority of the song.

I liked Undertaker's theme that was on WWF The Music Volume 4. Also Alicia Fox's old music fit her so much better than her current theme.

The Waterproof Blondes version of Christians theme . Up until just recently Broken Dreams was the only thing I liked about McIntyre

I love' Takers remix he used in late '98 & his Ministry theme was kick ass too.
Slow Chemical for Kane was f'n awesome!
I love Voices but Burn in my Light was awesome for Orton.
The female version of Christians theme (can't remember who sang it) is way better than his current version.

I really liked the Legacy theme for Ted DiBiase Jr. before he switched to that Autotune filth.

My Time for HHH ALWAYS springs to mind.....BUT he did outgrow it to be honest. I have never felt the Motorhead stuff suited him TBH.
I also preferred Austin's 97-99 tune over the one he had in 2000 when he returned.
There is another one too.....I always think of it when this topic comes up but it just isn't presenting at the moment.

Real Americans theme for Cesaro.
I get the split and he had to get his own music but come on, that crap was awesome.

I always thought that this was one of the coolest sounding theme songs that the WWE ever had
It suited Bradshaw so well. I remember back in 98 when he had his first singles run as a face, when that music hit the fans legit would get pumped and stand, knowing that Bradshaw was coming down to kick some ass!!

Undertaker - Summerslam '98 (prototype for the Ministry theme). The most epic theme in wrestling imo.
The Rock - Summerslam '98 ("You smell what the rock is cookin? Ha"). When the Rock was cool.
Rob Van Dam - ECW theme. Fit his personality so well back then.
Jake the Snake - 1st theme. It's just so '80s movie-soundtrack' I love it.
Ricky Steamboat - Kind of weird but I actually prefer this for Steamboat. It's the song that was overdubbed over Steamboat's entrance on WM3 DVD, etc.

imo, i thought "My Time" was pretty terrible and i thought SOTY's version is on par with Waterproof Blonde of Christian's theme

Burn in my light, Cesaro's Real Americans song, Hollywood Rock's song compared to current
