10 Best Wrestling Themes In The World Right Now!

5. Kenny Omega - Battle cry

Omega is a wrestling anomaly, as there are very few people who could pull off a nickname like "The Cleaner" and end up becoming the mega-star that he is. The AEW performer has had a few theme songs in his time, but his current "Battle Cry" feels like the absolute perfect version of his soundtrack.

Part of what gives Omega his appeal is the Japanese influences of his career, and this song feels like a perfect synergy between that style and western influences. The heavy guitar compared to the more synthetic sounds are a brilliant cross of dynamics, and even give off this anime vibe that feels appropriate for his personality.

Finally, the lyrics contain references not only to his character but his wrestling signatures. The name-drop of the one-winged angel makes the song only applicable to Omega himself. Not many performers are lucky enough to have such a blatant connection to their music, so that helps to make the song feel special.

It's an incredibly fun piece, that is a great listen even without the wrestling context.
