... It's never supposed to be available to the public?
I used to be really into titantrons and themes back around 2006-2011, and it was as if we were never given access to the actual tv themes.
Sure we had albums release, but 9/10 times it was the full length unedited song. Not the entrance edit.
Sure, many are accessible on YouTube, but the quality of the sound usually isn't great and it's often not perfect.
For example, Jeff Hardy's "No More Words" theme. The full length song released on Vol.8, but the TV edit cut the first verse and flowed better. The versions online don't get it right, there's a guitar riff before the chorus starts, online you always just hear the drums go into the chorus. Not a big deal, but it's slightly annoying.
Like with titantrons, we get 30 seconds to a minute of it. Why not the full thing?
Anyone else annoyed by that? I'm OCD about details so probably just me. But in the 90s most themes released were the actual edited themes.

I remember one of the WWF CDs in the 90s had The Rock's theme on it and it had way more of Rock saying catchphrases than I ever remember his actual music having. "DO YOU SMELL WHAT THE ROCK IS COOKIN'? Ha. The Rock's layin' the smack down." I don't remember that one ever being on TV, but I damn sure had to use it as his entrance music in my Jakks mini-figure federation. And his mini-figure was a cruiserweight compared to the earlier guys because they decided to make the newer figures smaller for some reason. Kane was also a cruiserweight.

I liked the CDs that made their own songs. Remember that song about Stone Cold that was like "Sometimes I drink a little beer / Sometimes I kick a little ass / It's just that... It's just that OH HELL YEAH!"
Can you imagine them doing something like that with Bray Wyatt or Dean Ambrose? It'd be HILARIOUS.

If they make another one of those CDs, the Dudleyz don't want to take part in it. They've had enough. |

There was two versions actually Chris Warren Band recorded both of these. I always preferred Austin's them recorded by Disturbed. |

I assume they don't release the entrance edits because they're only supposed to be listened to in a specific context. A WWE theme song has to be structured in a specific way, and most need to have a signature sound or motif in the first few seconds. For example, Edge's Alter Bridge theme was modified because it needed to have a bigger crescendo moment like Austin's glass break or Undertaker's gong. So they moved the breakdown that's usually at the end of the song to the beginning. The normal version is structured like a conventional rock song, while the WWE edit works better for their needs.

If WWE released a CD album with the best current themes on I'd certainly buy it.

If they did another one of those albums, I hope Erick Rowan performs a song about his Rubik's cube.
