CFO$'s 20 Best WWE Themes

10. France Rules - Sylvester Lefort And Marcus Louis

The Legionnaires were a team composed of actual Frenchmen named after the most famous group of non-Frenchmen in the history of France, and rather than protecting imperial holdings in Africa or whatever, they were really into wearing horizontally-striped shirts and removing hair from Enzo Amore. Very little about Sylvester LeFort and Marcus Louis made sense, including their theme song, but that's okay, because it was surprisingly wonderful.

"Attention!", the song blared, accompanied by a Street Fighter-style NEW CHALLENGER APPROACHES graphic. "Les Legionnaires ici." And so they were, accompanied by a pulsating disco beat that didn't exactly conjure imagery of sweat-drenched kepis bleaching in the Algerian sun.

It's still absurdly, toe-tappingly catchy, and WWE should absolutely keep it on file in case Marcus Louis Drew McIntyres himself while no one is looking and gets himself re-signed five years from now.
