11 Greatest WWE WrestleMania Songs Ever

8. "Light It Up" By Rev Theory (WrestleMania XXIV)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wjdlFSjqpL4 No one will ever claim that Rev Theory makes high-quality rock music. Part balls-to-the-wall, part mainstream, radio-friendly rock, it was the perfect schlock for listeners who wanted to jam and have fun. While they may not have produced a classic by any means, their hit "Light It Up" was a fairly strong song that was often used during major sporting events. But not before WWE beat all of the major leagues and associations to the punch, scooping it up for use at WrestleMania XXIV. The song not only fit the mood of the broadcast, an action-packed pay-per-view that saw The Undertaker and Edge electrify the audience in the main event, it was fitting as WWE lit up the night sky with tremendous firework shows for some of the top stars on the roster, including "Nature Boy" Ric Flair in his final match (in a Vince McMahon-owned ring). Considering that the company originally tapped Red Hot Chili Peppers' "Snow" as the theme to the show (for a show held in Florida?), Rev Theory's hit was a much more complimentary song that provided a harder and more energetic theme for the spectacle.
