What is with all the crappy new themes?

Ambrose's especially sounds like a theme made for a future jobber.

I was gunna post the exact same topic. There has been some real shit recently.

It's weird too because NXT seems to be getting pretty cool themes, not sure why those on the main roster are stuck with such crap

Wow, all of these are straight garbage, but especially the ones for Rollins, Ambrose and Cesaro (I can at least get the theme for the Wyatts). Generic metal trash that sounds like music for a CAW on the WWE games.

Think it's down to budget cuts, but I hope that they are just filler themes. Still don't think that Cesaro fits that kind of theme.... Should have let him keep Patriot!

Though the Wyatt theme is an instrumental of "He's got the whole world in his hands" think the logic is for the crowd to sing along

Listening to the Wyatt theme on its own, it's terrible. I think though that watching the two big guys sauntering down to the ring with that playing actually works.

Maybe Jim Johnston has quit.

Quit or left. They mostly use CFO$ now. I don't hate Ambrose's theme, but it needs a hook. Something that catches you right away. Sort of like how Austin's glass shatter was followed by mostly generic rock music. I agree that NXT has better wrestler themes. Here are a few. I especially like Sami Zayn's because I am a ska fan.

Besides Cesaro's siren, I like them all, Ambrose especially.

I think Ambrose's theme suits him really well.

Yeah, I can't defend any of these, they're all terrible. The Wyatts one just doesn't work as an entrance theme and they've already beaten that "Whole World In His Hands" thing to death. The others are just really generic metal that are all as unmemorable as they come. The entrance themes should help let you know who's about to come to the ring, and set each participant apart and I don't think any of these generic metal tunes accomplish that at all.
