15 Best Instrumental Entrance Themes In WWE History
8. Shinsuke Nakamura (The Rising Sun)
The most modern theme on this list, Rising Sun has made a huge impact in the short time it has been in use, establishing itself as one of the best WWE has produced in years. With an already popular theme during his time in NJPW, many fans feared that WWE would saddle Nakamura with a more generic theme along the same lines of the one given to Ultimo Dragon when he first debuted.
Those fears were put to rest and then smashed into oblivion by a blinding combination of strings and synthesizers rising and falling like a musical roller-coaster over an emphatic digital drum track.
Nakamura’s theme is the perfect rapid yet controlled arrangement with balanced Asian elements all working together to bolster the mystique around the unique superstar.
