12. "Man In The Box" (Tommy Dreamer) - Alice In Chains
http://youtu.be/6aNu9MMx0ak While everybody in ECW used mainstream music for a theme (a practice common in wrestling outside of the larger promotions) few got the reaction this song and Tommy Dreamer got when it would blast over the world's most famous bingo hall or whatever venue they were in that night. The opening chords always meant that it was about to hit the fan, and usually someone would wind up bleeding. One of the most recognisable themes for one of the most recognisable faces in wrestling, this song embraces Dreamer's on-edge personality and tendencies. A great song for anyone looking to unleash the enraged man inside them. 11. "King of Kings" (Triple H) - Motörhead
"Behold the king, the king of kings. On your knees dog." There may be no better way in all of wrestling to start a theme. It immediately establishes The Cerebral Assassin's spot at the top of the WWE food chain. The hook only takes it further from there telling opponents to "bow down." First heard by fans at WrestleMania 22 leading up to his WWE Championship match against John Cena, the theme went over with the fans much better than his Viking-esque entrance outfit did that night as it became his theme of choice for his matches at WrestleMania before eventually just becoming his full-time theme in 2013 as a member of The Authority. This song leaves absolutely no doubt as to who the King of Kings in professional wrestling is.
