WWE Pays Tribute To Motörhead's Lemmy

It has been a rough month for rock n' roll. Lemmy Kilmister, the iconic frontman of Motörhead, passed away Monday at the age of 70 just days after being diagnosed with an aggressive form of cancer. Kilmister, who had continued touring right up until his death, had been having health issues for the better part of 2015, but refused to call it a day, despite being forced off stage and cancelling a number of shows. In true rock fashion, Lemmy refused to give up. The rock legend - who notoriously claimed to have drank a bottle of Jack Daniels every day since turning thirty, and who recently stated he switched to vodka from whiskey "for his health" - was an icon in the business who also launched a Motörhead wine, played with Dave Grohl of the Foo Fighters and appeared in the video for White Limo by the band. Known for songs like Iron Fist and the classic Ace of Spades, Lemmy (Motörhead's only original member) and the band also provided a handful of tracks to the WWE, namely Triple H's entrance theme The Game, another Triple H theme, King of Kings, and the theme for the Evolution stable, Line in the Sand. This made them one of the biggest, and most frequent, musical contributors as far as WWE theme songs. The band would appear at WrestleMania not once, but twice, performing "The Game" for Triple H at WrestleMania 21 and 27.

Lemmy and Motörhead will no doubt be dearly missed by friends, family, and fans, as well as the WWE universe. RIP, Lemmy.
