I mean, they aren't being ranked among other entrance themes, which would likely have them all in the bin, but a bin can be made bigger if they were to do so.
The Gary TH-cam theme is a revelation. It's at least high-quality CFO$. Also, sincere question, was it made with the same app Sam used to make the themes for the AI episode of Raw??🤔
A few songs were missing, most notably Rhea Ripley’s, Raquel, JD McDonagh and others. I personally would put AJ’s new theme in lovelyx3, but if there was hesitance in putting it there, just make another tier like “good” because if it’s not lovely for you guys, then it’s “good”
51:47 OOOOF i love you both but hard disagree. The guitars make Knight's new intro more generic. His original was excellent because they pulled sounds from the west coast G Funk era sound. I C O N I C of the LA culture. The rock version is just so... Wrestling guy... Generic. Mid. Basic. i.e opposite of LA KNIGHT YEAAAHHHH
This has been very very kind to def rebel i think id only have maybe 5 in the best and the bin would be a lot more full but not complaining because the more gary youtubing we get the better
To correct Gary TH-cam for I am a smartass, technically Roman's new theme was actually debuted at Wrestlemania 41 Night 2, if you rewatch the broadcast, its the theme he comes out to when he faces Cody in Bloodline Rules. I was there that night, and the ceremony and sheer badassery behind it made it easily one of the best.
Austin Theory’s theme reminds of a bunch lip smacks, snorts and throat clears. I’d rather listen to someone begging me for money and how they can’t even afford to pay utilities. I listen to your videos while I watch my wife play Skyrim. Big ups
Now I'm 5 minutes in and I can already tell I'm going to wish we could hear a few seconds of each theme as a refresher, honestly I'm having big trouble recalling what these first 3 sound like even with the wonderful descriptions being given. 😄👍
This whole list made me realize how much I miss Jim Johnston. Def Rebel made everything sound the same. At events like the Royal rumble I would have to wait till I saw who it was to even know who is coming down to the ring, shaking my head.
That's crazy this video and what you said came out today. I was listening to some classic WWE themes and comparing them too def rebels stuff. And basically def rebels were generic wrestler music. A lot of the old school stuff was cheesy but it had personality
49:35 Yeah that song is totally Depeche Mode, I haven't heard that in super long. Just unlocked memories from a time I had apparently stuffed away for some reason. Think I'm gonna just lock those back up for now after I go listen to the song if I remember by the time I finish this video. 😅👍
I think Andrew is totally right about how a lot of these that don't really work would work if they used real instruments rather than MIDI. So many of the classics were either songs performed by already existing bands (Metalingus, The Game) or were played by Jim Johnston, and it's really not that hard to tell the difference between a MIDI guitar and a real guitar. Ones that do that, especially when taking stuff from older versions of their themes and using MIDI instead of real instruments like previously, suffer massively.
Let this be the reminder that Def Rebel is actually pretty good. And mind you, they didn't even go over NXT themes (aside from call-ups). Tony D'Angelo, Trick Williams, Oba Femi, Je'Von Evans, Tatum Paxley, Fatal Influence, Fallon Henley, Damien Priest's first theme (Infamy), and other wonderful NXT themes were left off this list. As to Roman's new theme, I would put it in the Alright category because it isn't *bad* so much as *misused*. Because while that particular track did debut at Summerslam, it was based on his song from Wrestlemania, a stage sufficiently GRAND for such an "epic" version with the million intros. If it was a one-off, it'd be wonderful. Cut the intros, and it's slightly more heroic.
Low blow Ross. Can we wait until the bridge is rebuilt before we make any more jokes about the key bridge? We still struggling over here. I'll retort with this... PGTips, It's Mediocre at best
I think Jade Cargill's WWE theme kinda sounds like a mix of her AEW theme and a generic early 90's X-Men theme. It's like someone playing the X-Men theme with different effects turned on and they keep getting muscle spasms in their hands while playing it. 😄👍
Fun fact that no one cares about: Here's the list of def rebel themes I added to the Genius (lyrics finder site) website [in order of release dates with latest first]: - Made Me Stronger (Sonya Deville) - 10 Beats of the Bodhrán (Sheamus) - A Storm Is Coming (Jade Cargill) - Reigning Warriors (Kabuki Warriors) - The Lyoness (Nikkita Lyons) - It's Our Moment (DIY) - It Is My Time (Dirty Dom) - Triumph (Lyra Valkyria) I'm still working on Still The Baddest (Damage CTRL's current theme), even though I already have def rebel brainrot
Gunther's theme is so much worse than it used to be. To me it just feels was less awe-inspiring than his original one. Why they changed it I don't know but I still love him as a wrestler.
Sonya's theme might be generic in the sense that there are a good amount of similar songs, but it is the greatest of it's kind, it is legit one of my favorite women's themes right now Also I Am Greatness at the bin is bull crap. It shouldn't be legally allowed to be lower than alright. Carlito's theme is great. It's not as good as the old one but it still fits him. Nostalgia is speaking for you.
Idk why wwe change head of the table for i am greatness it just has more aura than i am greatness... Also a lot of fans keep saying he's face but there's plenty of wrestlers kept there theme as a face 🤦🏾♂️ Head Of The Table >>>> I Am Greatness
The only reason to change his song is if they added an explosive intro for run-ins, but I think Roman has proved that his run in can last 3 minutes long and everyone will respect the OTC
That Gary TH-cam Theme is better than any WWE entrance theme ever made
BLASHPEMY OF THE HIGHEST ORDER! I will not sit idly by, and watch you besmirch the theme of RTC!…
TO THE TOWER WITH YOU! 😂
meanwhile I am greatness:
Best theme since that AI went nuclear on Hogan.
I like Roman's theme, but if he's doing a save, the heels will have enough time to finish the beatdown and leave before the intro ends.
When Gary TH-cams are Gary Youtubing, the world is a better place ❤
Ross, why do people get on you about saying kavorka? You do you mate!
Because it's a pretend-Latvian word made up in an American TV show too lazy to do any research on the country they wanted to make an episode about.
Is there enough room in the bin for all of them?
I mean, they aren't being ranked among other entrance themes, which would likely have them all in the bin, but a bin can be made bigger if they were to do so.
Remember the old days when guys like David Otunga had a great theme song
you mean the one he took from Justin Gabriel?
You guys were very kind considering how critical you guys have been.
Ross casually dropping a Steve Stone reference popped me
The Gary TH-cam theme is a revelation. It's at least high-quality CFO$. Also, sincere question, was it made with the same app Sam used to make the themes for the AI episode of Raw??🤔
I think it might have been
"I Am Greatness" is cool bro wtf
It's......... Cinematic 🤷🏾♂️...... and that's good. But HEAD OF THE TABLE?!👀
Cultaholic gets in the bin for that
It’s is an objectively worse version of his last theme. So if it ain’t broke don’t fix it. Just for changing it, it deserves the bin.
@@a_depressed.tigersfan no, it is better
@@P3TER_Official23it’s a fart bro
A few songs were missing, most notably Rhea Ripley’s, Raquel, JD McDonagh and others.

Honorable mention for joe gacys theme. It at least lovey lovey lovey
Been waiting a long time for this! And he's got a theme song! Its AI get in the bin slop! Tear that Def Rebel apart
burn the ships is fantastic one o the best WWE themes in years
The most perfect thing to start watching after you’ve finished a joint. Bravo Gary TH-cam. Bravo
Jade’s theme is based on The X-Men cartoon. The whole Storm connection.
Jacob Fatu’s theme just needs some Samoan rap in it and it’d be top tier
51:47 OOOOF i love you both but hard disagree. The guitars make Knight's new intro more generic. His original was excellent because they pulled sounds from the west coast G Funk era sound. I C O N I C of the LA culture. The rock version is just so... Wrestling guy... Generic. Mid. Basic. i.e opposite of LA KNIGHT YEAAAHHHH
nah, the only thing i'd want back is the lyrics
"i wanna see you diiiie"
That Gary TH-cam into has to be Ross’ podcast hall of fame nomination for this week
I'm not huge into the AI nonsense, but... when it's stuff like that Gary TH-cam theme, it's alright.
Didn't realise Tom and Ross had recently lost a predictions video. This is a bit of a cruel punishment lads even for your standards.
To this day I think one of my biggest hot takes in Wrestling is that I actually like the newer Creed Bros theme more than their Diamond Mine version.
This has been very very kind to def rebel i think id only have maybe 5 in the best and the bin would be a lot more full but not complaining because the more gary youtubing we get the better

So long Def Rebel, you won't be missed at all
Roman's original Head of the Table theme is the best Def Rebel theme... period! Most of the others are 💩
me personally i'd have to go with seth rollin's visionary theme
@@aveorsomethingidk1670 that's a great theme. Even better when you're there live.
aj's new theme goes straight into the bin for me.
Now I'm 5 minutes in and I can already tell I'm going to wish we could hear a few seconds of each theme as a refresher, honestly I'm having big trouble recalling what these first 3 sound like even with the wonderful descriptions being given.
😄👍
Gary is back!

😅👍
AJ's Phenomenal theme is so good, it makes You Don't Want None worse than it really is.
1:01:08 buzzing by Mann is the name of the song I think fellas 😂
yeah i instantly knew it xD
Yup, samples I Can't Wait by Nu Shooz.
Yesssss
Andrew saying Bron Breakkers theme sound Korn-esc might just be the greatest thing ive ever heard
That song you're looking for when talking about Grayson Waller is Mann & 50 Cent's "Buzzin'", but it samples Nu Shooz's "I Can't Wait".
I think Andrew is totally right about how a lot of these that don't really work would work if they used real instruments rather than MIDI. So many of the classics were either songs performed by already existing bands (Metalingus, The Game) or were played by Jim Johnston, and it's really not that hard to tell the difference between a MIDI guitar and a real guitar.

Shout out to Dijaks theme was a badass beat that may have came off generic initially but suited his entrance and vigilante persona
This channel is using AI in the absolute best way. Pleased as punch to be a Patron.
41:00 Ross is truly light on his feet. Nice flip!
Love the theme song. You are amazing Gary.
Love the shout-out to Javelin by Rizzle Kicks, indeed a great song that would suit a FIFA game

The highest of highs, but the lowest of lows. Rest in peace poor Def Rebel. We hardly knew yee
Yeah... I didn't know I needed Ross singing Ke$ha... but here we are.
This must be the most difficult tier list.
I haven't even watched this yet but if Tokyo Shock (Iyo's theme) isn't A+ tier then anything else is invalid
Low blow Ross. Can we wait until the bridge is rebuilt before we make any more jokes about the key bridge? We still struggling over here.
I'll retort with this...
PGTips, It's Mediocre at best
That's fair
Please have this be the permanent intro for tier lists moving forward 🤣
Gary youtube nice to see you again
We will get the loudest pop in the universe when we hear that "Bloody hell, that's Gary" during the 2025 Royal Rumble
This video goes in the bin for putting Roman's new theme (which debuted at Mania not SummerSlam) in the bin.
I think Jade Cargill's WWE theme kinda sounds like a mix of her AEW theme and a generic early 90's X-Men theme. It's like someone playing the X-Men theme with different effects turned on and they keep getting muscle spasms in their hands while playing it.
😄👍
Wow that was worth it just for the intro 😊
Glad to see Lyra's theme get some respect. I personally would have placed it slightly higher.
As a Marylander, I appreciate the Key Bridge joke. Ross is king.
Gary youtube and ai is a dangerous combo
God, that intro was Jim Johnson tier
What an opening!!!! Absolutely love it
Very accurate ranking
At least Def Rebel made 1 good theme before they left and gave Gary this banger!!
1:01:00 Are you sure you’re not thinking of I Can’t Wait by Nu Shooz? That one’s pushing 40!
Fun fact that no one cares about: Here's the list of def rebel themes I added to the Genius (lyrics finder site) website [in order of release dates with latest first]:
- Made Me Stronger (Sonya Deville)
- 10 Beats of the Bodhrán (Sheamus)
- A Storm Is Coming (Jade Cargill)
- Reigning Warriors (Kabuki Warriors)
- The Lyoness (Nikkita Lyons)
- It's Our Moment (DIY)
- It Is My Time (Dirty Dom)
- Triumph (Lyra Valkyria)
I'm still working on Still The Baddest (Damage CTRL's current theme), even though I already have def rebel brainrot
Good list other than AJ's new theme which GOES IN THE BIN imo
I love how they took the piss out a def rebel theme song before starting the video proper.
...i'd have put Solo and maaaaaaaaybe Baron Corbin over even the old Tribal Chief theme, but that one is still a darn solid choice.
Omg Gary TH-cam this is an amazing intro!
Gunther's theme is so much worse than it used to be. To me it just feels was less awe-inspiring than his original one. Why they changed it I don't know but I still love him as a wrestler.
Hard agree
Agreed. It's awful.
I really like Nia's new theme. It's so much more pleasant and badass than the jingle she used to have
UP THE GARY TH-camING!!!
The return of gary 🎉
Epic intro. Reminds me of the old wtf intros
Glad to see Russ and Dingle have patched things up since GuessThe-Gate
Gary TH-cam theme straight in the “The Best”
Perfect intro!
40:55 for Twinkle Toes Tweddell
I wonder how much say so the wrestlers have in their music. I can’t imagine many of them recently actually like their songs
Crazy Roman take but agree with the rest
Sonya's theme might be generic in the sense that there are a good amount of similar songs, but it is the greatest of it's kind, it is legit one of my favorite women's themes right now
Also I Am Greatness at the bin is bull crap. It shouldn't be legally allowed to be lower than alright.
Carlito's theme is great. It's not as good as the old one but it still fits him. Nostalgia is speaking for you.
That Gary Youtub3 intro felt like a mileatone for the channel
My only qish was that their name cards would pop up Gary TH-cam too
Carlitos theme reminds me of the 2014 Brazil world cup.
The new Gary TH-cam theme better be in the S tier
Rhea Ripley and Bobby Lashley have the best def rebel theme songs
Haa!
5 seconds in and I already love Ross's new theme, although it'd probably suck if Def Rebel made it.
😆👍
Oh Wow. 49:35
I'm actually way more familiar with the Lacuna Coil version of Enjoy The Silence.
😄👍
All in the bin for me Gary.
So we're all ranking the Gary TH-cam theme as S tier, right? Because I will be playing it on repeat.
🎉UP THE GARY🎉
This theme song is a musical achievement
Roman did not intro that new theme at Summerslam. Go back and watch Mania 40.
1:29:52 I don't think Austrians give speeches to large crowds anymore.
i guess this are not all of them? no enough in the bin!
1:13:05 broke my ass laughing
Your Hole!!
1:00:52 is Buzzin - Mann
Sheamus/Brawling Brutes theme is just Angry Birds 2 Boss theme.
14:02 - Ow, my Key Bridge. I'm two miles from it, funny enough. Got you Ross.
r/Cultaholic
I Am Greatness is a great theme.
Yes
Bloody Hell it IS Gary
Idk why wwe change head of the table for i am greatness it just has more aura than i am greatness... Also a lot of fans keep saying he's face but there's plenty of wrestlers kept there theme as a face 🤦🏾♂️
Head Of The Table >>>> I Am Greatness
The only reason to change his song is if they added an explosive intro for run-ins, but I think Roman has proved that his run in can last 3 minutes long and everyone will respect the OTC
