Vincent and Dutch of The Righteous have officially signed with TNA Wrestling, and their entire presentation — from the horror-inspired vibe to the entrance music — has already left a strong impression on fans. But that haunting theme song fans instantly associate with their presence? It wasn’t just a random choice. Vincent revealed that it was a deeply personal creation tied to his past in Ring of Honor.
During a new interview with Denise Salcedo, Vincent explained how the track came together and why it still defines The Righteous today. It all started when Vincent was branching out on his own during his ROH run. He was searching for a sound that matched his eerie persona and unsettling presence. That led him to Matt from Hot Tag Media, who immediately understood the assignment.
“Honestly, I remember like I had, um, you know, it was when I was like kind of breaking off on my own in the past in Ring of Honor. And I was like, ‘Man, like I’m trying to think of something, you know, that kind of fit like me, you know what I mean?’”
“I ended up contacting — his name is Matt from Hot Tag Media — and I said, ‘Hey man, like I need some sort of vibe for me and what I’m thinking. So this is what I’m thinking here.’”
Vincent says the first version of the song hit the mark instantly — with just one small tweak. Now that sound has become an essential part of their entrance and overall identity.
“Honestly, first shot he sent that one back to me and I loved it. I fell in love with it and I just said like, ‘Man, just turn the snapping up for me on it.’” I love it. I think it’s one of the things that kind of elevated what we’re doing and what we are. You know, it’s a big part of it.”
“I love entrances and all that kind of stuff. So yeah, it’s definitely got a vibe to it.”
Whether they’re creeping toward the ring or facing off against legends like The Hardys, The Righteous know how to set a mood — and that eerie snapping track is part of their signature.
With TNA pushing forward on AMC and The Righteous eyeing tag team gold, Vincent’s attention to every detail — even the beat of a song — shows how calculated their rise really is.
