These 10 WrestleMania theme songs made event more special for fans
WrestleMania is not just a wrestling event anymore. Today, it is seen as a big pop culture moment. WWE puts in a lot of effort to make this event grand, and music plays a big role in that. The entrance of wrestlers, promo videos, and the vibe of the entire show feel complete only because of the right music.
WWE always tries to pick songs that match the event’s theme and energy. Over the years, many such songs have become as memorable as the matches themselves. Let’s take a look at 10 songs that made WrestleMania unforgettable.
1. Invincible – Machine Gun Kelly ft. Ester Dean (WrestleMania 28)
This song was chosen for a match that WWE called “Once in a Lifetime.” It was between John Cena and The Rock. The words of this song matched the emotions of that storyline. Even today, people remember this song when they think about that match. It gave fans the feeling that something big was going to happen.
2. My Way – Limp Bizkit (WrestleMania 17)
This song became the voice of the legendary fight between Stone Cold Steve Austin and The Rock. WrestleMania 17 is still called the best WWE show ever, and this song added more emotion to it. It was used so well that people now link this song directly to that main event.
3. Less Than Zero – The Weeknd (WrestleMania 39)
When WWE gave creative control to Paul Levesque, WrestleMania 39 came out as a fresh show. The song “Less Than Zero” made the stories feel deeper and more serious, especially in the Cody Rhodes vs Roman Reigns match and the tag team match with Sami Zayn, Kevin Owens, and The Usos.
4. Coming Home – Diddy: Dirty Money ft. Skylar Grey (WrestleMania 29)
This song was about coming back and proving your worth, and that matched perfectly with John Cena’s return story. WWE used this song to show his struggle and how he wanted to get back his respect by facing The Rock again.
5. Greenlight – Pitbull ft. Flo Rida and LunchMoney Lewis (WrestleMania 33)
WrestleMania 33 had a colorful vibe, and this song made it even more fun. The show had many exciting moments, and WWE had also created one of its best stages. “Greenlight” gave a party-like feeling and matched the whole show’s tone.
6. Ladies and Gentlemen – Saliva (WrestleMania 23)
This song made everything feel intense and grand. Whether it was The Undertaker vs Batista or the match between John Cena and Shawn Michaels, the song played during promos gave chills. It raised the excitement level before the matches.
7. My House – Flo Rida (WrestleMania 32)
This event had the biggest number of fans in attendance—more than one lakh people. WWE legends like Stone Cold, The Rock, and Mick Foley also appeared. The song “My House” made the whole event feel like a celebration and gave the crowd something to sing along to.
8. Blinding Lights – The Weeknd (WrestleMania 36)
WrestleMania 36 was different. There were no fans due to COVID-19. Matches were shot like short films, including AJ Styles vs The Undertaker and John Cena vs Bray Wyatt. “Blinding Lights” gave a fresh sound and made the show feel modern and emotional.
9. Superstar – Saliva (WrestleMania 18)
This song had a raw and tough sound, which matched WWE’s 2002 era. The highlight of this WrestleMania was the match between Hulk Hogan and The Rock. The song helped make the event unforgettable.
