When you're watching classic matches from the WWE on their network you're bound to notice some themes during various superstars entrances that sound different to what you once remembered, sure they don't sound as good as the original theme their dubbing over but surprisingly there can be a few odd cases where the dubbed theme doesn't sound half bad, share your favourite themes..
This was used for the Sandman during ECW's: One Night Stand 2005 ppv, I prefer Metallica's "Enter Sandman" ofcourse but for a replacement this was pretty good although i do prefer the alternative version of this song..
The nWo's dubbed theme which was used for the Wrestlemania X8 dvd, Gamecube video game & Insurrextion 2002 ppv.. again not as good as the original theme but it kind of suited them giving the group a menacing & intimidating feel..

That nwo theme is horrid.
It also bugs me seeing Hogan playing the air guitar obviously to Voodoo Child and hearing the Real American theme lol

I can't find it, and it's not good by any stretch of the imagination, but 'Taker's dubbed them from X-SEVEN is always good for a laugh.

This is hilarious and easily my favorite. Yes!! Ha ha ha ha! I remember a buddy and me were watching an ECW Hardcore TV show from 1997 on WWE Classics on Demand and New Jack came out and I was like, "clearly they can't use Natural Born Killa here" and then came that horrid rap song for him. I sadly started to enjoy New Jack matches a lot more though because the song started to get catchy haha

I hate when they aren't able to use the original music, always kills the mood for me because it's so obvious. I haven't come across any where I feel like it's an improvement or enjoyable.

Dubbed themes always have and always will piss me off.
If a wrestler uses the theme every match, why is it a problem to have the theme played on DVDs or the Network?

I dislike dubbed themes in general, but I get why they do it. The only ones where it really pissed me off cause I couldn't get why they dubbed the themes was when they dubbed over DDP and The Cat's theme songs. I did however did not mind The Sandman's dubbed theme and Mikey Whipwreck's dubbed theme.

The reason why they are dubbed is because WWE doesn't own the rights to those pieces of Stock music

I can’t stand dubbed themes!! A couple of dubbed themes that I noticed immediately were Chris Jericho’s and Diamond Dallas Page’s in WCW.
For Chris Jericho, they dubbed his entrance with his WWE theme, which is okay, only because it’s my favorite entrance song.
For Diamond Dallas Page, they used a worse version of a horrible rendition of Smells Like Teen Spirit. Funny thing is, when Kanyon was stealing DDP’s gimmick in WCW, they didn’t dub over his entrance music…which was DDP’s actual entrance music!! So in the Diamond Dallas Page vs. Kanyon match, DDP comes out to some lame dubbed entrance song, while Kanyon comes out to DDP’s actual entrance song.

Better or worse?..
I kind of prefer the Wrestlemania X8 dubbed theme over this but I can admit that SD vs Raw 2006 nWo theme sure does have one sweet ass guitar solo climax near the end. ;]

My guess is that if they edit all the DDP theme songs in their video library (again, I am not sure why, since it's just old stock music from what Jericho said in his book regarding him using that "Evenflow" rip off) because there is a 100% chance that DDP matches will be on WCW DVDs. But they never figure that Kanyon would be because, well.... it's Kanyon. His WCW career isn't really on par with DDP's even though they did hold the WCW Tag Belts together.

To be honest I could see that happening and how lazy is that? I would have assumed they would have checked every single episode thoroughly for stuff like that. Anyway, one thing I hated was this change in Smackdown Shut Your Mouth I never got to watch WWE from 2002-2006, and used to love playing the video games during that time, and could sit for ages just listening to the theme songs. The Hardys were my favorite team from 2000 and onwards, and their theme was awesome. So getting this game I was excited to hearing it again for the first time in years (got the game in 2004), and was thoroughly disappointed in this. I was devastated, and hated this dubbed theme back then. Ruined it for me playing as either Hardy in the game. Now, I can honestly say it's not that bad.

The Hardys theme is stock music! It's free! It was in every other game, why not this one? It honestly ruined the game for me a little.

I hated how Build A Bridge on the Survivor Series 2003 was dubbed with generic stock music. I remember they dubbed over Undertaker's Rollin' theme in some DVDs with this. In 2003 they dubbed over RVD's One Of A Kind and Kane's Slow Chemical themes with their previous instrumental theme songs. I think they sometimes dubbed over the Dudleys' "Drop The Bombshell" theme too with the theme that they're currently using. Booker T's theme song was dubbed on some 2003 DVDs and in Crush Hour with this. Stacy Keibler's Kid Rock theme song was dubbed with this.

Man these just piss me off. I still can't understand why WWE couldn't just pay out for the themes or include them anyway. Simply because later on - they did with all those mentioned above! Except with Stacy Keibler.
My god just watching that video of her - she was fit as f***. Still is, and best looking diva of all time to be honest.
