There have clearly been so many iconic wrestling themes over the decades, but there may well never have been a finer time for these tunes than during the early '90s landscape of WCW.

For Sting alone, he had two absolute bangers in the form of Turbo Charged and Man Called Sting. The first of these delights was the Stinger's entrance song of choice during his ascension to topple Ric Flair for his first World Championship at The Great American Bash '90, whilst the second was a ridiculously catchy number utilised by Sting as he cemented himself as the top star in the promotion.

Elsewhere, Ricky Steamboat, the Steiners, Lex Luger, Ron Simmons, Vader, 2 Cold Scorpio, Marcus Alexander Bagwell, the Hollywood Blonds, the Dangerous Alliance, and of course Ric Flair and anything Four Horseman related all had some truly magnificent songs to strut down the aisle to during the first half of the '90s. And then, well then there was Ravishing Rick Rude.

Seriously, not just is Rude's WCW theme a favourite in the WhatCulture office, but it legitimately is one of the finest entrance songs to ever grace the wrestling business.

He'll steal your girl and break her heart and leave you a fool.

Fan. F**king. Tastic.
