WWE Cooking Up New Entrance Themes After Superstar Pushback

Entrance music has always been a signature part of what makes a WWE Superstar truly connect with fans—but lately, the vibes have been off. Now, it looks like WWE is finally doing something about it.

Fightful Select is reporting that “there are a couple of new themes being worked on for WWE talent,” signaling that the company is actively trying to fix what many wrestlers and fans feel has been a downgrade in recent years.

This shift comes after weeks of behind-the-scenes frustration. WrestleVotes previously noted that several WWE Superstars had asked to revert to their older, more iconic entrance music—some even going back to the classics during the October 10 episode of SmackDown. Names like Sheamus and Drew McIntyre are among those who’ve made requests, though approvals have been hit or miss.

The biggest reaction of the night came when Shinsuke Nakamura returned with his beloved “The Rising Sun” theme, and the crowd erupted. That moment proved what so many have been saying—entrance music matters, and fans know what hits.

While Drew McIntyre is said to be less optimistic about WWE green-lighting his old theme, Sheamus remains in the mix. Nothing is confirmed yet, but with new tracks in development, there’s hope that WWE might finally be turning the corner.

It’s clear that the entrance music debate isn’t just noise anymore—it’s shaping WWE’s creative decisions in real time.
