CFO$'s 20 Best WWE Themes
12. The Future - Asuka
As recently as five years ago, Asuka would've gotten the same "Generic Japanese Theme No. 5" music that was assigned to Tajiri, Kai En Tai, Kenzo Suzuki, et al. Thanks to CFO$, she has this intensely foreboding anthem instead. With vocals low in the mix, it sounds almost as if proximity to Asuka's aura of invincibility is causing the music itself to distort.
The lyrics are spot-on as well; they tell the story of kings and queens laid low by an irresistible force from the future, and that's a fantastic metaphor for Asuka. Like the song says, she's been nothing less than a "force of nature they call by name", more like a hurricane or typhoon than a normal wrestler. And, as the women of the main roster will eventually learn, the Empress of Tomorrow is the future.
