10 Incredible Stories Behind Famous Wrestling Themes

3. Bray Wyatt Found His Music Online

Speaking of stock music, that's exactly what Bray Wyatt chose to use when searching for the musical accompaniment which would differentiate his preaching character from anything else on WWE television. Looking to stand out, Wyatt became a smash hit in NXT with his foreboding gimmick, but it was music he stumbled upon online which would change the course of his career.

Written by songwriter Mark Crozer, the song 'Broken Out in Love' had been uploaded to a licensing website, with Crozer hoping his tunes would catch the eye of a TV producer, and be used on screen in various shows, earning the guy some money in the process. What Crozer didn't bet on was that a WWE wrestler would be browsing, looking to find the perfect song to use for his walk to the ring.

Instantly liking the track, Wyatt convinced WWE to purchase the rights for the song from Crozer, renaming it 'Live In Fear'.
