+NikateeN don't forget twice WWE used AJ Styles TNA theme Evil Ways for promos the 1st promo for Undertaker vs CM Punk at WM29 and at Fastlane 2016 For The Wyatt Family vs Big Show,Kane and Ryback
Michelle McCool's theme "Not Enough for Me" originally was for Torrie Wilson. It was dropped from Torrie when she went back to being a face and Michelle picked up the theme. Alicia Fox's current theme "Pa-Pa-Pa-Pa-Party" used to be Maria Kanellis' theme. Speaking of Maria, her theme "With Legs Like That" was originally intended for Stacy Keibler, but she never returned to WWE. Kelly Kelly's theme "Holla" was originally intended for Candice Michelle and is even listed as Candice's theme on the WWE Wreckless Intent album.
Holy fucking shit!!! I *can't believe* someone else has noticed that Hardcore Holly's entrance theme has been in a lot of ads and TV bumpers!!! I remember noticing the Hardy's theme in stuff too. That's crazy!
They even used the Hardy's theme in german afternoon shows that usually only housewifes watch. Also there is a low-class football club called Rot-Weiß Oberhausen who uses (or at least used) HHH's "Time to Play the Game" during the Player entrance. I popped bigtime for that since I'm a huge Trips-Fan and had no idea they do this.
Just like Devari, Dabrah, Sable, early Stephenie McMahon and even Melina just to name a few Teddy Long has Managed a wrestler and took his theme music after that
It's worth noting that when Bart Gunn won the Brawl for All they gave him that theme for at least one match, as in to say: "here, you won this crap shoot fest, now get this song"
I heard Jeff Hardy theme song on one of those history channel shows where they fix old stuff. They were doing like a montage on presenting something and it had his theme blasting in the background.
Hulk Hogan's theme "Real American" was originally used by The U.S. Express (Barry Windham & Mike Rotunda) while Hulk Hogan used the theme from Rocky 3 "Eye of the Tiger"
I STILL hear the Hardy Boyz theme everywhere, shit, i've heard it thousands of times on Counting Cars on History, and Pawn Stars, I've often wondered if it was just random stock music that WWE just found one time and was like "Here you go" because its in a lot of non wrestling related things for some strange reason...What are your thoughts?
Phineas Godwin/Midean used "Dusty Rhodes old "American Dream" theme. Chris Benoit's WCW theme was also used in a Pamlea Anderson Playboy video. Some songs are public domain. Ricky Steamboat's early WCW theme has been used a lot on TV show's and all you youngsters are unaware that Ric Flair's theme form the film "2001:A Space Odyssey" was also used by Elvis Presley for many years at the start of his concerts.
... I do not believe you. I have no choice now but to find this Pamela Anderson playboy video and watch it several times. You know, JUST to make sure you are not lying. .. 😊
WWF St. Valentine's Massacre 1999 Theme -> 1st Big Show theme (Paul Wight) -> Nicole Bass theme -> WWF Rebellion PPV theme -> Luke Gallows theme (2010)
This also counts for wrestlers who were once part of a tag team but only one or two of its former members keep the same music after splitting up. For example : Roman Reigns' music was the Shield's theme, Vince McMahon's music is The Corporation theme song that came from the 1999 Royal Rumble pay per view. The Rock's music was originally The Nation Of Domination's theme and Eddie Guerrero's music was used by himself after leaving Chyna and Chavo Guerrero, both "Latino Heat" and "Lie Cheat and Steal".
As far as the Corporation music, it is cool to here the instrumental version that was played in the opening of No Chance in Hell. Also, Vince came out to No Chance in Hell the first time ever in the Sunday Night Heat before the 99 Royal Rumble.
Lex Luger's last WCW theme, the one we all know, is also used as radio bumper music. Hear it all the time when they're reading spots during Boomer and Carton.
I've had "rise to the occasion, do somethin amazing" bar from big zekes entrance theme stuck in my head for 10 years and thanks to this video I can finally end my suffering.
Heard the Hardy's theme on an episode of Pawn Stars and Umaga's theme on South Beach Tow AJ's theme was used for CM Punk vs and Undertaker promo package and recently AJ's theme from TNA Evil Ways was recently used, something with Bray Wyatt.
Well some historians know that "Pomp and Circumstance" was originally Gorgeous George Wagner's .But one obscure one is a WCW Track called "Satans Sister" which if you were a pre-Bischoff WCW Fan was the theme song of The Hollywood Blonds(Austin/Pillman)but a year after they broke up they used it for Greg Valentine. And most recently The Tune with the Chorus "Youre not enough for me ,just another man I. Love with me" was originally Torrie Wilson's before it became famous as Lay-Cools theme
From the first time I heard Ezekiel Bread Jackson's theme, I thought to myself, "That's the Brawl for All theme!" I had the WWE Anthology CD's so the theme was pretty fresh in my memory. RIP Bart Gunn
Dude I love your videos! I cant believe your not more known in the Wrestling community. Definitely much better then WhatCulture. Keep up the great work!
The Brawl For All theme was actually recycled twice: once for Ezekiel Jackson like you mentioned, but several years before, it was used as the XFL theme. Anyway, love the channel and I wish you had more subscribers because more people need to know about it.
Tony Atlas theme from saba simba days was reused for tito santana theme,big john studd's theme was reused for hacksaw jim duggan also king haku's theme has been reused by other wwe superstars over the years like jerry lawler
Hey, I remember that once of big show's first theme songs, was actually used again for luke gallows just after he broke got out from the straight edge society
interesting that Cesaro has a 007 gimmick of sorts right now. it's like they knew even then that the guy looks like a powerful international figure of some kind. In the suits he actually looks more like a Bond villian...
@NikateeN you forgot one major song! Remember when Rikishi first came to the WWE his song back then was used for the Valentine's Day Massacre theme song. Also Big Show used it as a theme when he was known as Paul Wright. Then later Luke Gallows used the same song when he was with the Straight Edge Society!
The first ever theme from Big Show was the theme from the PPV St Valentines day Massacre in I guess 1999 and then it was years later used by Luke Gallows theme called "Massacre".
Man this is a great vid. I've noticed recycled themes, mostly in WCW. I think they literally had a few generic ones, but this is great there is a few I had no clue of. The Cesaro/Malenko one is crazy.
I actually heard both Hardcore Holly AND The Hardy Boyz theme in an episode of Drawn Together. They both played in a strip club that Foxy and the Princess character were dancing at.
Just recently in Australia our pay TV network Foxtel had ad's that used the CWC preview music for the upcoming week's show that would air during RAW and SD and the network
Fun fact: When Cesaro was in WWE's developmental system, Florida Championship Wrestling (now NXT), the actual Dean Malenko theme was used as Cesaro's entrance music. Also, Cesaro stated in an interview with ESPN that he's a big fan of James Bond, and it just so happens that Dean Malenko's theme was inspired in part by the the title tack from the James Bond film, "Goldfinger." So that's probably why that track was used for Cesaro.
I used to hear Hardcore Holly's first entrance theme everywhere to, like on radio talk shows and commercials. I also remember The Hardy Boyz theme being used on a Cartoon Network commercial. When they did radio announcements in my town, they used Bret Hart's theme and Randy Orton's very first WWE theme as background music.
Big Show during the first two months in the WWF used a modified version of the St Valentines Day Massacre theme, it was then later used by the late Nicole Bass at Over the Edge 1999 and was used for Luke Gallows a decade later.
This channel is one of the biggest hidden gems on YT in regards to WWE content. Just marathon basically your whole library, keep it up!

darkwarrior3007 Right!! I was trying to figure out who used the theme first. Thanks!!
Holy fucking shit!!!
I *can't believe* someone else has noticed that Hardcore Holly's entrance theme has been in a lot of ads and TV bumpers!!! I remember noticing the Hardy's theme in stuff too. That's crazy!
John T. Campbell RIGHT!? I remember hearing the Hardys theme in the tv show "disorderly conduct" on Spike
They even used the Hardy's theme in german afternoon shows that usually only housewifes watch.
Also there is a low-class football club called Rot-Weiß Oberhausen who uses (or at least used) HHH's "Time to Play the Game" during the Player entrance.
I popped bigtime for that since I'm a huge Trips-Fan and had no idea they do this.
I've also heard both of Lita's themes use in commercials etc.
Banana Revenge Spike TV ads for Holly
John T. Campbell its stock music
I heard the Hardy Boys Theme on Top Gear once.
some guy in an ambulance/Savage318 And I Also Heard The Hardy Boyz And Goldberg’s Theme Song On Some History Channel Shows
& Crash Holly
Oh that’s one of those royalty free songs, think Booker T’s theme or Tyler Breeze’s old theme
Top gear movie what?
linda mcmahon uses the wrestlemania 93 album song.
Big D ha
Big D ohh ohhh wrestlemania? That song?
lol yeah. but just the instrumental version.

@Gary Busey Me too. That song is totally metal!

They did?? which one
+Bestgame Commercial or song?
+manuel flores commercial
+Bestgame i can't remember exactly which one, but it was used here on latin america
I heard Yoshi Tatsu theme in a Happy Meal commercial
Top Gear uses a lot of WWE themes
Big Show 1st theme song Massacre was reused later for Luke Gallows single theme
Zac M.A it was also used for Nicole bass before the big show entered the WWE 😋
If you watch The Rock's "This is Your Life" from the Attitude Era, some of the guests come out to Lex Luger's themes
Teddy Long's theme was originally made for Rodney Mack
It's beat is also the WrestleMania theme "California".
You know it's the Mack militant
Just like Devari, Dabrah, Sable, early Stephenie McMahon and even Melina just to name a few Teddy Long has Managed a wrestler and took his theme music after that
I heard Rikishi's face theme on one of those VH1 countdown shows, and his heel theme in a deodorant commercial.
One of Cesaro's old themes is used in ScrewAttacks Death Battle
It's worth noting that when Bart Gunn won the Brawl for All they gave him that theme for at least one match, as in to say: "here, you won this crap shoot fest, now get this song"
"This Fire Burns" might be my favorite entrance theme of all-time.
I heard Jeff Hardy theme song on one of those history channel shows where they fix old stuff. They were doing like a montage on presenting something and it had his theme blasting in the background.
can't forget "You Look So Good to Me" used by Billy Gun/Chuck Polumbo tag team then Rico and then later one Santina Marella
Now since hearing Iron Mike Tyson's modified DX intro... I'm playing WWF Attitude PSX
I feel an honorable mention to Tazz's theme is deserved. The Shield/Roman Reigns' theme is far too similar to be an accident.
Hulk Hogan's theme "Real American" was originally used by The U.S. Express (Barry Windham & Mike Rotunda) while Hulk Hogan used the theme from Rocky 3 "Eye of the Tiger"
This Fire Burns is still one of my favorite themes of all time
Cesaro...I did not know that.
I heard the original Hardy Boys theme used on porn channel TelevisionX
I heard the Hardy Boyz theme song(Loaded by Zack Tempest), on a bunch of TV shows. Never in a porn, though.
Jamy McTaylor *Facts*
I once saw a soft core adult movie on Showtime that used Chris Benoits old WCW theme during a "Jail Cell Interrogation".
When Haku returned to WWE in 01 he used the Headshrinker's theme.
The usos first theme is also royalty free music. I remember hearing it on an episode of runs house
I believe Hogan's "Real American" was originally used by Barry Windham and Mike Rotundo, then known as the "American Express".
They were the U.S. Express, but you're right about "Real American" originally being used for them.
True. But while it was originally for them, it was used only once or twice before they left for WCW and it was given to Hogan....
i hope you know the outsiders theme was a cover of the artst Seal - Crazy. Also dean malenko theme was just license to kill theme from james bond.
A man of culture.
The Brawl For All theme was also used as the main music for the XFL.
I STILL hear the Hardy Boyz theme everywhere, shit, i've heard it thousands of times on Counting Cars on History, and Pawn Stars, I've often wondered if it was just random stock music that WWE just found one time and was like "Here you go" because its in a lot of non wrestling related things for some strange reason...What are your thoughts?
Josh Wizinsky Yeah Even Goldberg’s Theme Song Is In The Public Domain As Well As The Hardy Boyz Theme Song
the killswitch engage song, suits punk more than cult of personality.
snake No, it didn't
snake it depends on which type of CM Punk
agreed. cult of personality is an awesome song, I just never saw it as Punk's theme.
Lita's 1st theme song when she was with the Hardys was use a lot on late night commercials
Fandango's theme was everywhere when he was for that one month
Phineas Godwin/Midean used "Dusty Rhodes old "American Dream" theme. Chris Benoit's WCW theme was also used in a Pamlea Anderson Playboy video. Some songs are public domain. Ricky Steamboat's early WCW theme has been used a lot on TV show's and all you youngsters are unaware that Ric Flair's theme form the film "2001:A Space Odyssey" was also used by Elvis Presley for many years at the start of his concerts.
... I do not believe you. I have no choice now but to find this Pamela Anderson playboy video and watch it several times. You know, JUST to make sure you are not lying. .. 😊
Dude, that piece of music was composed in 1896 by Richard Strauss, long before "2001: ASO" was made into a movie.
You must be old like me LOL
WWF St. Valentine's Massacre 1999 Theme -> 1st Big Show theme (Paul Wight) -> Nicole Bass theme -> WWF Rebellion PPV theme -> Luke Gallows theme (2010)

As far as the Corporation music, it is cool to here the instrumental version that was played in the opening of No Chance in Hell. Also, Vince came out to No Chance in Hell the first time ever in the Sunday Night Heat before the 99 Royal Rumble.
RVD's theme was used in a trailer for Biker Boyz.
Lex Luger's last WCW theme, the one we all know, is also used as radio bumper music. Hear it all the time when they're reading spots during Boomer and Carton.

Linda Mcmahon's theme was the Wrestlemania theme for many many years before it became hers.
I've had "rise to the occasion, do somethin amazing" bar from big zekes entrance theme stuck in my head for 10 years and thanks to this video I can finally end my suffering.
Another good one, in an episode of Kids In The Hall they used Booker T's theme
David Otunga's theme "Power" was used briefly by Justin Gabriel
Not sure if this counts since it was in a game, but they used Dan Severn's Theme for Dr. Death Steve Williams in WWF Attitude.
I wish they would have reused Ahmed Johnson's theme. I dig that one so much.
Ultimo Dragon's theme is currently used by Ricky Steamboat

***** But his career died during that tournament.
+Just Some Guy what a grand prize it was
I miss the Patriot we need a new one.
It didn't occur to me at the time, but I later learned that the 96 Bash at the Beach theme is a rip off of Crazy by Seal.
Used to always here hardcore Holly’s theme on every spike tv commercial ever
In Germany, Drew McIntyre's Theme: "Seeing Red" is used by the WWE for the Commercials.
Love Ezekiel's theme.
Heath Harrison me too it was dope!
Dude I love your videos! I cant believe your not more known in the Wrestling community. Definitely much better then WhatCulture. Keep up the great work!

I remember hearing the hardy Boyz theme in nickelodeon or nicktoons network for their thumb wrestling commercials in the background.
Goldberg's WCW theme was used by a Japanese wrestler on nitro a little less than a year before his debut.
Tyler Reks had a theme song which was used by Darren Young before him, they just cut out one of the synths which made the guitars stand out more
I'm glad you didn't add the 2 different versions of Sexy boy Shawn Michaels theme.
Tony Atlas theme from saba simba days was reused for tito santana theme,big john studd's theme was reused for hacksaw jim duggan also king haku's theme has been reused by other wwe superstars over the years like jerry lawler
Big John Studd's theme and Hacksaw Jim Duggan's theme are two different tracks.
the hardy boyz theme was once used in a promo for some cartoon network sweepstakes or something?
It probably was. The Hardy Boyz theme ("Loaded" by Zack Tempest, from Extreme Music) has been used in A LOT of things.
Watchdogs 2 recently used both the Hardy Boyz and Dan Severn's theme as background music for a biker gang hideout.
Hey, I remember that once of big show's first theme songs, was actually used again for luke gallows just after he broke got out from the straight edge society
I'd say the unholy alliance's theme was recycled and reworked and became Sting's theme in 2015.
interesting that Cesaro has a 007 gimmick of sorts right now. it's like they knew even then that the guy looks like a powerful international figure of some kind. In the suits he actually looks more like a Bond villian...
Mark Henry also used Kurt angles theme at the start of his career.
Woah that Ezekiel Jackson one blew my mind I used to love his theme
@NikateeN you forgot one major song! Remember when Rikishi first came to the WWE his song back then was used for the Valentine's Day Massacre theme song. Also Big Show used it as a theme when he was known as Paul Wright. Then later Luke Gallows used the same song when he was with the Straight Edge Society!

Vader theme was recycled and reworked for the Ministry (Acolytes, Vicera, and Mideon).
Brodus Clay's theme (or its prototype) was also God's at Backlash 2006.
Man this is a great vid. I've noticed recycled themes, mostly in WCW. I think they literally had a few generic ones, but this is great there is a few I had no clue of. The Cesaro/Malenko one is crazy.
Cesaro used the actual Dean Malenko theme in FCW, WWE's developmental territory before debuting in WWE.
I knew angle theme will show up, because the patriot used it, but never knew the Sgt. slaughter one.
Brian Christopher had the same theme as Kama when Kama was the supreme fighting machine
the air raid sirens in cesaros theme/s are similar to perry saturns old post radicalz theme
Donald Trump's theme was "Money" the same song they always use on the MITB PPV
I've also heard Trent Baretta's theme in a kids commercial
I actually heard both Hardcore Holly AND The Hardy Boyz theme in an episode of Drawn Together. They both played in a strip club that Foxy and the Princess character were dancing at.
Dan Severn's first theme was given to Steve Williams after Severn left the company
On the Lion Guard trailer Umaga's theme played
That's pretty crazy I can imagine kids dancing like the Hardy's when hearing it on a commercial
There was a theme used by like 4 different divas at one point. Torrie Wilson had it first, then Michelle McCool, then Layla, and someone else.
Just those three used it.
Speaking of Layla, she also used Tiffany's entrance music too
Mark Henry's original nation of domination theme music later became the rocks theme music
Just recently in Australia our pay TV network Foxtel had ad's that used the CWC preview music for the upcoming week's show that would air during RAW and SD and the network
Mike Knox's WWECW theme was originally Taz's theme back in ECW.
Fun fact: When Cesaro was in WWE's developmental system, Florida Championship Wrestling (now NXT), the actual Dean Malenko theme was used as Cesaro's entrance music. Also, Cesaro stated in an interview with ESPN that he's a big fan of James Bond, and it just so happens that Dean Malenko's theme was inspired in part by the the title tack from the James Bond film, "Goldfinger." So that's probably why that track was used for Cesaro.
I once heard AJ Styles Evil Ways theme on a TV show, it was around 6 seconds repeated 4 times.
I once heard Rikishi's theme on an episode of Daria.
Sorry if someone already said this but I believe Teddy Long's was similar to the theme from Wrestlemania 2000 if I'm not mistaken
Keep up the wrestling videos.....your channel just gets better and better
I used to hear Hardcore Holly's first entrance theme everywhere to, like on radio talk shows and commercials. I also remember The Hardy Boyz theme being used on a Cartoon Network commercial.
