WWE: 20 Best Entrance Themes By Popular Artists

14. "Sirius" (Ricky 'The Dragon' Steamboat) - Alan Parsons Project

This song is one of the most used songs in sports as it is perhaps more well-known as the song the Chicago Bulls used during their championship runs in the '90s. Several other teams and wrestlers have used this theme over the years, but none in wrestling more memorable than Ricky "The Dragon" Steamboat during his time in WWE. Though legal issues have kept it off most video releases of his matches during the time, make no mistake, it was this song playing throughout Pontiac Silverdome the night he took the Intercontinental Championship from Randy Savage at WrestleMania 3 in 1987 and during his entire run with the company in the mid-to-late 1980s. The dramatic build makes it the perfect song to be used in just about any sport, but almost tailor fit for the individual sport of professional wrestling as it is still widely used in independent wrestling today.

13. "This Fire Burns" (CM Punk) - Killswitch Engage

Originally meant to be a theme for Randy Orton (he used it once), this Killswitch Engage track was part of the Wreckless Intent album and was also used as a theme for the Judgement Day pay-per-view that year before becoming the theme for a debuting CM Punk. Punk would use the theme for the next five years, the passion and intensity exuded on the track symbolising Punk in real life. The coincidental nature of Punk winding up with the theme shows that much like anything else in professional wrestling, what might not work for one superstar will help another one thrive and establish himself in the long run. Though, obviously, things worked out quite well for Randy Orton too.
