Lay-cool/Michelle McCools theme was originally used as Torrie Wilson's entrance.

Hacksaw Jim Duggan used Big John Studd's theme song, just added in him saying "Hoooooooooooo" in it. Paul Bearer used Papa Shango's theme song too in 1997.
The Heavenly Bodies used the New Foundation's theme song. X Pac used Mike Tyson's theme just with different lyrics. Wow I never knew about that, do you recall any particular times he used it? I'd love to see some footage. |

It was between In Your House April 97 - SummerSlam 97.
He had the blonde hair then, and was suffering from the burn he got at the IYH show when Taker lit him up. That was when he revealed that Kane was alive.

Wow this is turning out to be a better topic than I had hoped for! I had no idea about a lot of these. I also noticed that in 1997 Sgt Slaughter used a different theme when he was the commissioner. I don’t know the name of it but I’ve heard it on a lot of old ppvs and Colosseum videos. I believe it’s the same tune that Linda McMahon uses.
I love this theme btw! Is so 90’s WWF!

This is the song they released in 92ish called Wrestlemania but without the lyrics. Classic stuff |

Of course the most notorious is always Hulk Hogan using Windam & Rotunda's Real American It suits Hogan way better though. Probably yeah but, it was fitting for Windam and Rotunda at the time it was written, with them being the US Express and feuding with Shiek and Volkoff. |

The Shield/Roman Reigns theme is Tazz's WWF tune slowed down.
Click the cog and switch the speed to 0.75 and you'll hear it rather clearly.

When Shawn Michaels first turned heel and was starting out with the "Heartbreak Kid" character, I'm pretty sure he briefly used the theme song that would eventually be recycled for Lex Luger when he debuted as "The Narcissist." Actually, HBK used the famed classical piece from George Gershwin’s Rhapsody in Blue early in his heel run. It always struck me as if they were trying to get the Ric Flair theme vibe by using such a classical piece. |
