My list seems to be mainly old ones. I guess this is the right section to put it in.......

1. Road Warriors-Ironman (used to send shivers down the spine, when you heard that music and saw Animal and Hawk on their way to the ring, you knew the sh!t was about to hit the fan.....)

2. Ric Flair-Sprach Zarathustra

3. Hulk Hogan-Real American

4. The Undertaker -Darker Side/Graveyard Symphony

5. Stone Cold -Broken Glass

1. Bret 'The Hitman' Hart--cool theme, probably the only man who could look mean wearing wrap around mirror shades with neon pink & black tights.

2. 'Ravishing' Rick Rude--second theme from WCW where they're singing about how fit he his and how all the ladies love him though they won't admit it. Rick Rude was a conssumate showman and forever the heel.

3. Sting---80s rock music

4. Razor Ramon--Scott Hall really had this Cuban character down to a tee.

5. Macho King Randy Savage---Pomp & Circumstance, totally ridiculous but somehow perfect theme for the only WWF King I remember, and lets not forget Sensational Queen Sherri.

1. The Mountie, specifically the vocal, second version, "I'm the Mountie" ("You can try to run, but you can never hide, 'cause The Mountie always gets his man!")

2. Million Dollar Man--Money, Money, Money, etc., etc. Sums up Ted's character perfectly--and really Vince McMahon Jr.'s operational style, since this would likely be the character he'd play if given a chance in the ring ("Everybody's got a price, everybody's going to pay...")

3. Kamala--African chantng and shrieks; can you get more on target with a character of supposed Ugandan descent?

4. Bushwackers--vaguely Land Down Under (well, OTHER Land Down Under) piece that also fit their goofy style well

5. Sergeant Slaughter: "ATTTTENNNNN-HUTTTT!!!" then military drumbeat. Equally effective when he was either good guy ultra-patriot or bad guy Iraqi sympathizer

Honorable mention can go to, among others:

-Demolition--"Here comes the Ax, here comes the Smash..."

-Beverly Brothers--repetative up-tempo piece that just had a nice ring to it

-Big Boss Man--don't know the exact title, if any, but the opening sounded fittingly like a prison siren wailing, perfect for his standard full-on charge into the ring

-Koko B. Ware--The Bird, later to be repackaged sans lyrics during his stint with Owen Hart in High Energy

-"El Matador" Tito Santana--a decidedly Spanish-sounding horn fanfare

-Honky Tonk Man--self-titled Elvis clone tune that the King would probably be proud of

-Legion of Doom--Ironman; you did just get a surge of adrenaline when you heard "WHHHHHAT A RUSSSSHHHH!!!" bellow through the arena
