8 Iconic '80s Wrestling Themes

• Hulk Hogan

  Performed and co-written by Rick Derringer, he told Rolling Stone, “It’s become one of the biggest records I’ve ever made…and I’m the guy who did “Hang On Sloopy” and “Rock and Roll, Hoochie Koo.” (Well…he’s not wrong.)

• Demolition

  Derringer strikes again! His work with the WWF also included this hard rock tag team theme classic.

• Jake “The Snake” Roberts

  The synth guitar is so menacing, Roberts’ theme didn’t need lyrics.

• “Macho Man” Randy Savage

  Savage’s use of “Pomp & Circumstance” is so iconic that high school graduates call it the “Macho Man March” instead of the “The Graduation March.”  (Okay…they don’t, BUT THEY SHOULD!)

• Mr. Perfect

  The only thing more perfect than the late Curt Hennig is this theme.

• “Rowdy” Roddy Piper

  Oh, Hot Rod…you’re just so incredibly missed.

• “The Million Dollar Man” Ted DiBiase

  The “Money” hook. That laugh. You can’t put a price on the brilliance of this theme.

• The Fabulous Freebirds

  Last, but certainly not least:  No “best ’80s wrestling theme” list would be complete without “Badstreet U.S.A.”  The Freebirds were the first wrestlers to have original entrance music, so without them and the vocal stylings of Michael “P.S.” Hayes, this entire list wouldn’t be possible.
