18. Val Veniss Techno Theme, 2000
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GSpCE-4yd5o Val Veniss iconic Hello Ladies porno music was as integral to his character as his towel or pre-match pun-laden promo. However, after two years doing the same shtick and a failed heel turn in late 1999, it was time for the character to get a tweak. In mid-2000, Val teamed up with Trish Stratus, cut his hair, wore plain black or white trunks, and changed his recognizable theme to an unrecognizable techno mix. Even though Val shred any semblance of uniqueness with his character, he ended up garnering a bit of success, winning the Intercontinental Championship from Rikishi in July. This non-gimmick didnt last very long, as Val dumped Trish as his manager after losing the belt at Summerslam, and ended up joining the Right to Censor in the fall.
