WWE entrance themes have been in disarray in recent years, and several talents in the company aren’t happy about it.
Back in 2019, Def Rebel took over the responsibilities for making music for WWE from CFO$. This has resulted in a steady decline in quality as it pertains to wrestlers’ entrance themes. This is something several men and women in the company have a problem with and has been well documented in recent years.
This morning’s episode of WWE SmackDown from Australia, which aired live on Netflix internationally, saw both the Street Profits and Shinsuke Nakamura revert to their original theme songs. And this might just be the beginning.
Following SmackDown this morning, WrestleVotes took to social media to report that several talents have been requesting changes to their current entrance themes, including Drew McIntyre and Sheamus, tweeting out:
“As seen & heard on tonight’s SmackDown, a few superstars reverted back to their original entrance themes. Source indicate several superstars have been requesting music changes for some time now, including outspoken names such as Sheamus & Drew McIntyre. Time will tell if all those requests are eventually granted,” WrestleVotes said in a post.
Sheamus got his old theme back for a short period of time
For a short period of time, Sheamus was able to return to his “Written In My Face” entrance theme, but was suddenly forced to revert back to a Def Rebel theme.
The Celtic Warrior was a guest on INSIGHT with Chris Van Vliet earlier this year. While talking about his original theme, Sheamus said the following:
“I do miss that song, though,” Sheamus admitted. A lot of people were upset. I brought it back, but I wasn’t allowed to keep it.”
When asked if we could ever get the theme back, Sheamus implied that other people need to ask for it because he’s tired of asking WWE to bring it back.
“I don’t know,” Sheamus said. “Do you want to ask? You go ask. I’m tired of asking. I’m all out of asking.”
