Every WWE Raw Intro Ranked – From Worst To Best

This may not be a particularly popular choice, but I’ve chosen to rank the remix of the aforementioned “Tonight is the Night” rather more prominently than the original version.

After a couple of years of reaffirming which night would in fact be “the night,” WWE mixed things up a little by having the ever-excellent CFO$ put their own spin on the show’s opening track.

The result was a song that just had much more oomph with extra instrumentals added beneath the vocals, as well as the customary updating of featured faces on the video package. Roman Reigns, Dean Ambrose and Seth Rollins were now pictured more prominently, with Reigns himself closing out the intro instead of John Cena, in what might tenuously be seen as something of a passing-of-the-torch moment.

Perhaps my favourite part of this intro was the way in which the images were synchronised with the music. Rusev’s perfectly-timed shrug coincides with the emergence of the Raw logo, but the cream of the crop is the shot of Bray Wyatt looking up, Daniel Bryan flying high and Stardust just being Stardust in time with the lines “just look up, we’re flying high with the stars”—a nice touch from the videographers.
