In a recent episode of Friday Night SmackDown, Cody Rhodes faced backlash after giving up his WrestleMania 40 main event spot to The Rock. The dynamics took a turn during the WrestleMania 40 kickoff press conference, as Cody Rhodes reclaimed his main event by personally choosing it.
With that said, the two share something similar – they both have iconic WWE theme songs. However, they aren’t the only ones with some epic entrance songs that have continued to captivate the WWE Universe over the years.
5 Greatest WWE Entrance Songs That Stand The Test of Time
A theme song is crucial for a WWE Superstar as it is a major part of their presentation and now we will list the top 5 WWE entrance theme songs that can never be beaten.
1) The Rock
The Rock’s WWE theme song is called Electrifying and it couldn’t have been more apt for The Great One. Whenever the iconic ‘Can You Smell?” starts before the song, any WWE fan at any show will immediately jump from their seats and cheer loudly for The Rock.
The entrance has even transcended the world of professional wrestling thanks to The Rock being such a megastar in Hollywood. Therefore, we can easily say The Rock’s entrance theme is one of the best in the history of WWE for good reason.
2) Cody Rhodes
Cody Rhodes has been around the block in the world of professional wrestling, as he has competed in WWE, NJPW, ROH, AEW and many more. Throughout his different tenures, Rhodes usually had different kinds of entrance themes for himself.
Fans fondly remember Cody Rhodes’ theme song Smoke & Mirrors back in 2011 when Cody Rhodes was simply ‘dashing.’ However, the one song that has currently defined Cody Rhodes in many ways is undoubtedly Downstait’s Kingdom.
There is not one single fan who fails to get excited whenever Cody Rhodes comes out to his entrance, especially during the iconic ‘Whoa!’ part of the song. Therefore, his theme remains one of WWE’s best.
3) Chris Jericho
Chris Jericho remains one of the biggest professional wrestlers in the history of the business, who made his mark in various professional wrestling companies all over the world in his career that has spanned more than thirty years.
Le Champion’s WWE theme song Break The Walls Down defined several generations of WWE fans, as the bombastic song truly made him a big deal. On the other hand, Chris Jericho’s theme song Judas‘ in AEW’ is also a massive hit with fans, notably as he sang the song himself.
4) John Cena
John Cena is a 16-time World Champion and has accomplished pretty much everything one would want as a WWE Superstar. Therefore it is not a surprise that his theme song, The Time Is Now, remains one of the most iconic in the history of professional wrestling.
The Leader of Cenation’s theme song has always been drowned out by cheers and boos over the years, as many of his haters would sing ‘John Cena sucks’ during his theme song. Nonetheless, Cena’s theme song has transcended beyond the realm of professional wrestling as a whole.
5) The Undertaker
There is simply no one as legendary as The Undertaker in the world of professional wrestling, who has managed to remain relevant in the business for well over thirty years. This is largely due to him always maintaining kayfabe and never breaking character.
The Phenom has seen quite a few changes to his theme song over the years, with his Ministry of Darkness, and American Badass personas having their own songs. However, Jim Johnston’s Rest In Peace is his most iconic and most recognizable song for good reason.
