10 Absolute Best Uses Of Music In Wrestling History

6. 'Lonely Road Of Faith' Chronicles WWF History

One thing World Wrestling Entertainment have become famous for is instilling a sense of loyalty in the fan base that watches their product. Admittedly, this is something the company have lost track of in the modern era, and it's something they would desperately love to rekindle. In 2002, a storyline involving Ric Flair and Vince McMahon caused McMahon to threaten the WWF with the New World Order. In order to sell the gravity of what this could mean for the future of the promotion, the organisation wheeled out a video looking at the rich history of the WWF. Kid Rock's solemn anthem, 'Lonely Road Of Faith' was chosen as the musical accompaniment, and it worked a real treat. The lyrics speak of loneliness which only performers will understand, and that related to pro wrestling. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SX4_Imj_B1M Clips of Vince McMahon Sr, as well a top names like Hulk Hogan, Andre The Giant, Bret Hart and more struck a chord with fans. A beaming sense of pride was inherent in the video, as the company tried to sell the idea that the WWF as people knew it could be about to end if the nWo had their way. Ironically, months later WWF would change names to WWE, making this a fitting closure for the WWF branding.
