Top 5 WWE wrestlers who sang their own theme songs
HBKMany people in WWE have multiple talents. Some were athletes before they came into WWE, others were dancers, and some were even actors. However, WWE does employ those with some actual musical ability too.Some like former WWE Diva Jillian Hall were characterized as a singer. She performed her own theme song to the boos of many. While she performed her song as a joke, many others did their own song with some high reviews. TNA star Jeff Hardy sang a few of his own songs in TNA and seemed to debut a new one every year. WWE is known for having people with various talents, so it makes sense to think that a character would be either vain enough to have their own song performed by them or they would have it as part of their character.In this list, we count the top five men down who sang their own theme songs. Enjoy.
#1 Shawn Michaels Theme Song
WWE Hall of Famer “The Heart Break Kid” Shawn Michaels might go down as the best in-ring WWE performer in history. It is arguable, but the man rarely had a bad match with anyone. While after 2002 he was known as the veteran that could make anyone look good, before he left with a back injury, Michaels was known as a bit of a playboy character. He was even in Playgirl Magazine due to his character getting over with the female fans of the WWE.
Decades ago, WWE felt he needed to have someone talk up his sexy boy nature. So the song “Sexy Boy” was sung by his manager at the time, Sensational Sherri. When the two parted ways over Sherri turning on him, WWE felt that Michaels needed to keep the image but be more vain about himself. Of course, he also didn’t want to have his theme sung by someone who turned on him. It only made sense for him to change the music, but keep the message there.
WWE felt the best way for Shawn Michaels to do this was to have HBK sing about himself as a sexy boy for the song. So he did jus that, rephrasing it a bit. It ended up becaming a major hit with WWE fans for years to come.
