Line #12 VillainSong/ProWrestling


1	->Got power like the bear, but quick like the cat, put two and two together, feel your face on the mat! You count the stars while the ref counts three. Hope you like to look at ceilings cause that's all you're gonna see! We are Wrestling/TheNationOfDomination!

3	Just about every {{Heel}} wrestler's entrance theme, if it has lyrics, tends to be a VillainSong. For example....
4	-------------
5	* Wrestling/{{WWE}} wrestler Wrestling/TripleH's entrance theme, "The Game", is largely a VillainSong, sung by Motörhead from Triple H's point-of-view. It's three-and-a-half minutes of gloating about how Trips is the baddest of the bad and controls the WWE with an iron fist. Lemmy even throws in an EvilLaugh or two along the way.
6	* Ricky Banderas's theme: "It doesn't matter if you're black or white. It doesn't matter if you're rich or poor, because I am, the big brother. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XYTnvg7PGhA And I'm watching you.]]"
7	* Mr. Raytings's theme: "Gate three, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fUP9HKnvNPk only evil lives here.]]"
8	* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WWmH_-RxPMk Randy Orton's voices theme]] is an awesome VillainSong.
9	* Wrestling/TheUndertaker's theme - BONG. cue the druids, ominous Latin chanting, and one hell of a creepy EvilLaugh Though the Music/LimpBizkit theme is about the only one with lyrics.
10	** His theme during the Ministry gimmick mixes his original theme with hard rock.
11	* Wrestling/ShawnMichaels's theme, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qsvzIyBRElA "Sexy Boy"]], though it was originally a VillainLoveSong, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lgtOvcZ9Qo8 sung by "Sensational" Sheri Martel]].
12	* [[Wrestling/TedDiBiase "The Million Dollar Man" Ted [=DiBiase=]]]. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vm4TG56KGZ4 (Evil laugh), MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY, "Everybody's got a price! Everybody's gonna pay!"]]
13	* A subversion: "Stand Back" was sung by Vince [=McMahon=] with the original intention to be used as Wrestling/AndreTheGiant's song (and was actually used as such [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XMFm73OiGqI for a promo video]] and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AwPVFp5ho6U in the NES Wrestlemania game]]), but wound up being used for [=McMahon=] himself, who wasn't actually a villain at the time. (His on-screen persona was a {{face}}-biased announcer, nothing more) That changed a few years later when he got a new persona and a new theme:
14	* [[CorruptCorporateExecutive "'Cause you've got.... NO CHANCE!"]] To quote [[Creator/TheSportsGuy Bill Simmons]]:
15	-->''I'd want to come out to Vince [=McMahon=]'s "No Chance" song, just so I could perform the "I have complete and utter disdain for everyone in this building, and that's why I'm walking with an exaggerated swagger and frowning" routine while 20,000 people lustily boo me. That seems like more fun than humans should be allowed.''
16	** Taken to the next level when the Corporate Ministry was revealed, bizarrely combining [=McMahon=]'s Corporation with the Undertaker's Ministry, and likewise combining the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uuH4DwVnYJI Ministry theme]] with the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Uc3V8NxKWw original "No Chance In Hell"]], forming "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1ZZLwl6zZSI No Chance In Hell (Corporate Ministry)]]".
17	* As much of a douche as Wrestling/TheMiz is...his song fits the trope.
18	** "I came to PLAY! There's a price to pay, time for you to get down on your knees and pray. Say GOODBYE to the good ole days, they're never coming back, watch your future fade.
19	*** His ''Wrestling/WrestleMania 27'' promo song, "Hate Me Now", is even better. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6DkCx2es3pc Here it is]], with Miz's TitanTron.
20	* In the early 90s The Texas Hangmen had a pretty awesome one to [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gX2enodtI2Q introduce them to the USWA]] it helped establish how AxCrazy they were.
21	** "CLOTHESLINE will break your neck! The match is over and your body's a wreck. POWERSLAM will put you out! Havok and mayhem is what we're about!"
22	* Wrestling/DrewMcIntyre's star may have faded, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8c_QlGODXf8 but his longest-lasting theme]], "Broken Dreams" by Shaman's Harvest, fits to the T.
23	-->''What's that metronome I hear?\
24	Perhaps the end...is drawing near?\
25	You never hear the shot, that takes you down.''
26	-->''Out of time...so say goodbye.\
27	What is yours....now is mine.\
28	And I DREAM BROKEN DREAMS!\
29	I make them come true...\
30	I make them for youuuu.''
31	* [[Wrestling/HonkyTonkMan The Honky Tonk Man]]: His 50s-styled themed entrance song, a cheerfully narcissistic self-titled ode to himself: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wUAmfJlgh9s He's cool, he's cocky, he's b-b-b-b-b-b-b-baaaaaaad.]] %% Despite the title on the video, the song is unquestionably called "Honky-Tonk Man", as seen on [[https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/510Ow1Q5szL.jpg the album cover]]. Please don't change it to "Cool Cocky Bad".
32	* The Mountie: Wrestling/JacquesRougeau's heel marching tune, "The Mountie." When Rougeau began teaming with Pierre Oulette as part of The Quebecers, the tune was changed to "We're Not the Mounties" but – aside from minor lyrical differences and the vocal track replaced with a duet – kept pretty much intact.
33	* Rougeau's previous entrance song as part of the Fabulous Rougeau Brothers was [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f8oYbBIfifc "All-American Boys"]], where the brothers sang a mock-{{Face}} song that subtly insulted the audience in English (by claiming to only like "All-American" things like Music/BarryManilow and hating rock music) and ''directly'' insulted them in French.
34	-->"On peut pas les sentir, dans le monde ils sont les pires! On aime les faire facher quand qu'on dit[[labelnote: translation]] We can’t stand them, they are the worst in the world. We like to anger them when we say [[/labelnote]]'We love the USA'!"
35	* Wrestling/MadisonRayne [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GsEK4Aau-rc may have the most clear-cut one]] in Wrestling/{{TNA}}:
36	-->''She'll break your heart\
37	Tear it apart\
38	Just to watch you scream\
39	She'll never look back, you better come back\
40	To kill your will and your dreams\
41	She's a killer queen...''
42	* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_G4ocC6ILfY He'll steal your girl, break your heart and leave you a fool. He's simply ravishing. The Dazzling Ravishing]] [[Wrestling/RickRude Rude!]]
43	* Combine an ominous bassline, an eerily distorted guitar, a dark piano melody, and haunting vocals and you have ''Live In Fear''[=/=]''Broken Out in Love'', the perfectly sinister track that accompanies Wrestling/TheWyattFamily in their promos and entrance.
44	* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-ZD3FAUqJEg God made the devil just for fun...]] when he wanted the real thing he made Wrestling/AjaKong.
45	* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3fiTIBG6U1g And when your god's gone, you can believe this...]] I'm [[Wrestling/KevinOwens Kevin Steen]], and fuck Wrestling/RingOfHonor!
46	* Wrestling/KurtAngle's called on Sensational Wrestling/SherriMartel to help him sing his own version of Wrestling/ShawnMichaels's theme song, called "Sexy Kurt" (he'll make your ankle hurt)
47	* [[Wrestling/KatarinaWaters Winter]]'s TNA theme was titled "The Hands of the Wicked", in case there was any doubt left.
48	* Wrestling/{{Tazz}} was in the process of writing one for Wrestling/IvelisseVelez but Wrestling/{{Aces And Eights\|Wrestlers}} losing the TNA World Cup ensured she wouldn't be sticking around long enough for him to finish.
49	* Wrestling/AJStyles's Wrestling/BulletClub theme in Wrestling/{{New Japan\|ProWrestling}}. Fuck your dreams, fuck your life! Especially when compared to his ROH theme, "Demigods".
50	* In Wrestling/ProgressWrestling, Wrestling/JimmyHavoc uses "I Hope You Suffer" by AFI as entrance music, and it fits his entire character so well that it might as well have been made for him.
51	* Arguably, [[Wrestling/EdgeWrestler Metalingus]] counts, as it was used to accommodate a heel turn, and with Edge using it, the lyrics come off as AmbitionIsEvil. This becomes [[ToBeaMaster subverted]] as Edge mostly uses this as a face.
52	** Made even more evil in March 2022 with The Other Side, also by the same band that did Metalingus: Music/AlterBridge. The lyrics also befit Edge in some way:
53	--->''If you believe yours is the only way\
54	Then you're the fool who lives to die\
55	Well you deserve the Hell, you're gonna pay\
56	On the other side\
57	Once you reach the other side\
58	There will be no paradise...''
59	* Wrestling/BaronCorbin's "I Bring the Darkness (End of Days)", also counts. The lyrics even describe his gimmick.
60	-->''I bring the darkness, I am the thunder\
61	I come from Hell, and I'll pull you under\
62	I'll make you feel the wrath of my ways\
63	I'll make it real, I'll bring you end of days...''
