Most professional wrestlers have gone through their entire career without having one good theme song, but Triple H got multiple: his D-Generation X song was a classic of the era, "My Time" was a great follow up for his heel singles run and "It's All About the Game" and the Evolution theme were also solid creations from Motorhead. He could do no wrong in the musical selection department... for a time, but with Hunter being Hunter, he needed something bigger, something that talked about how great he was constantly. So, he took on "The King Of Kings." Motorhead returned for the Hunter theme trilogy, but it became very obvious, very quickly that they should have called it quits at two. When you're a babyface, you shouldn't have a song that tells others to bow down to you - that's just obnoxious - and having the song when you're the COO of a company is also in bad taste. The worst crime of all though is that it simply just doesn't sound cool, and shows a complete lack of self-awareness on Hunter's part. But have we really come to expect anything less from the self-proclaimed King of Kings? Which other WWE theme tune changes do you think deserve to be on this list? Share your own picks below.
As Rust Cohle from True Detective said "Life's barely long enough to get good at one thing. So be careful what you're good at."
Sadly, I can't solve a murder like Rust...or change a tire, or even tie a tie. But I do know all the lyrics to Hulk Hogan's "Real American" theme song and can easily name every Natural Born Thriller from the dying days of WCW. I was once ranked 21st in the United States in Tetris...on the Playstation 3 version...for about a week.
