Orton’s new music awful

Tuesday, May 13th, 2008

Randy Orton’s old entrance music was catchy, immediately recognizable and fun; much like the car crash sounds that trigger Mick Foley’s entrance, the shattering glass that triggers Stone Cold Steve Austin’s entrance, or the “You Think You Know Me” whisper that precedes Edge’s theme song, Orton had a terrific entrance theme.

But, of course, WWE is planning on releasing another soundtrack soon, so away they go with changing up some of the wrestler’s theme songs and Orton is the latest victim of a very bad new theme song that will have Raw’s top heel running for the nearest self defense products from all the catcalls it will earn him… and not in a good way.

My vote is to dump Orton’s new theme song immediately, and go back to the standard right away. Much like some of the awful theme song changes they’ve tried to foist on Triple H and Undertaker over the years, this one just is not an improvement. It’s generic and forgettable and needs to disappear. Some entrance themes, like HBK’s, simply never ought to change.
