20 Rare WWE Themes You Totally Forgot Existed

They weren't around long, but they made an impact!

By Justin Seagull /

Theme music is one of the best parts of professional wrestling. A great theme and entrance can make a mediocre wrestler look good, and a decent wrestler look like a star. The theme is just as essential to guys like Steve Austin and The Rock as their catchphrases. Some themes, like Austin's or Chris Jericho's, are long-lasting and iconic. However, there are others that didn't last as long, but were still awesome. For whatever reason, be it a gimmick change, or a tweak to the theme, there are a few really good themes in WWF/E history that were short-lived. We found 20 themes, a few with accompanying Titantron videos, to either jog your memory or to introduce you to an awesome theme for the very first time. Some names appear multiple times on this list, including legends like Triple H, The Undertaker, and Mick Foley, among others. These themes are in no particular order, and a few are grouped together to show the evolution of the character which they represent. The majority of these themes also came from 1999, because the booking was constantly changing during that year. So let's enjoy this trip down memory lane with 20 rare WWE themes that are absolute must-listens.

20. Al Snow Heel Theme, 1999

Shortly after Al Snow turned on Mick Foley in the fall of 1999, he got new theme music to go with the heel turn. Obviously, his €œWhat Does Everybody Want?€ theme wouldn€™t get him booed, so this change was necessary. Whereas €œWhat Does Everybody Want?€ was fast-paced and frenetic, this was a much slower, much more sinister theme, that went well with his insane character. Unfortunately, it wasn€™t used long, as Al Snow formed a tag team with Steve Blackman in early 2000. They were both heels, but after Al Snow started coming up with insane names for the tag team, including the one that stuck, €œHead Cheese,€ fans began to take to Snow as a babyface, and his theme was switched back to €œWhat Does Everybody Want?€
