It was an 80s sounding guitar driven theme that somehow got played all over the place in the 90s, not just WCW. The only thing I can name it being used for though was Mike Awesome’s first WCW theme. It was WCWSN jobber music before then and promo music a time or 2, and I heard it here and there out in the world. I’m positive it was Mike’s first WCW theme for a few weeks. You're not talking about the one that was also used by Mongo, Hak, and Bam Bam right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peck Posted May 1, 2020 Share Posted May 1, 2020 I remember one of Lex Luger's themes being used for highlights on Baseball Tonight and Sportscenter, which shocked me because I didn't know most of WCW's themes in the mid-90s were stock music. I think this was the one. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BloodyChamp Posted May 4, 2020 Share Posted May 4, 2020 (edited) It should be the 4-17-00 Nitro for the Mike Awesome theme. Of course knowing WCW and my luck, for all I know Mike Awesome could have been like Saturn. They had him rushed in so fast they didn’t have time for theme music until week 4 or so lol! In other words, no theme music at first. Edited May 4, 2020 by BloodyChamp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BurningBeard Posted June 12, 2020 Share Posted June 12, 2020 Having been in the mire of early WCW lately, I believe this is the most underappreciated theme song in wrestling history: 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jiji Posted June 12, 2020 Share Posted June 12, 2020 Just watched Luger/Flair from Wrestle War '90. Lex was at his peak right there. Fantastic theme and Luger's had several great ones. The Narcissist theme was perfect for his shtick and his stock music for his second WCW run was spot on for a white meat babyface. His WWF babyface music was okay but nothing special.

Earlier in the thread someone I believe put up the fucking awesome AJPW cover of this maybe it might've been me but I'm pretty sure I put up the AJPW Bossman Hard Times in response but regardless if you like this go find the AJPW one it's called Slammer I think Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All Luger babyface themes are historically pure butt except the one @Peck posted, the AJPW cover of that one that I was just talking about, and the wolfpac theme if you wanna count it, which I think we should because it was really like the last of that dudes peak Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BloodyChamp Posted June 13, 2020 Share Posted June 13, 2020 I’ve seen many old WCW snippets used in sports highlights over the years. I say snippets because while some of them were themes, most of them were fade in/out music, commercial music, etc from WCW TV. Obviously that stuff probably went better as background music over announcers than the Big Bossman Theme lol! Luger was just as good as everybody else once he learned, which was pretty quick. I saw a match against Kareem Mohammad in FL where he was working his butt off and the crowd was nuts. I also saw him look about as bad as Sting and the Warrior at first so obviously he was good as time went on as far back as FL. I don’t think I ever saw Lex look bad in WCW in the early days. He carried Brian Pillman more than Pillman carried him. (runs) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually had a real bad trip the one time I did 'shrooms. Apologies for bumping something from a year ago, but this theme brings back a great memory for me. My brother and I were in a grocery store and they had a young guy in the produce department who had the Matt Hardy look: same hairstyle, black jeans, etc. etc. and my brother spent the car ride home coming up with alternate lyrics to this song for the Matt Hardy, Produce Worker. All I can remember is "I can stack some tomatoes..." though 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
