With Jeff Hardy bringing back No More Words, which classic WWE theme is next?

On WWE Monday Night RAW last night, Jeff Hardy returned to action in front of a live crowd. He had a special surprise for the WWE Universe as well, bringing back his "No More Words" theme song.

Jeff Hardy has been pining for the return of this song for years, and it was reportedly an important part of his last deal with WWE. Hardy had said he was waiting on the fans to return before bringing it back, and got exactly what he wanted on RAW.

There are quite a few WWE Superstars in the company right now that, at one point, boasted some of the best theme songs of all time. Unfortunately, in recent years, many songs have been swapped out for more generic versions, leading to fans nostalgic for times gone past.

Jeff Hardy's been lucky, as every single one of his theme songs has been a classic. And just because someone's got a different theme on the roster, it doesn't mean the song itself is bad. It just doesn't have that je ne sais quoi that others do.

We'll be talking about six themes that the WWE Universe wants back, starting off with our United States Champion.


#6. WWE US Champion Sheamus - Written In My Face

"It's a shameful thing, lobster head!" Yes, we all know the classic joke between wrestling fans where Sheamus's original theme song had some hilarious misheard lyrics. Still, it's a song that the WWE Universe, and Sheamus himself, truly enjoy.

There's something about the song that gets fans excited to see the Celtic Warrior. It's so beloved that YouTube channel TeamFourStar used the opening lines in one of the Hellsing Ultimate Abridged episodes.

Sheamus understands that fans genuinely get a kick out of the song and has personally pitched to have it brought back.

He revealed as much on The Bump back in February last year. With No More Words back now, and with the official WWE Network Twitter page tweeting about it, could we see Written In My Face return?


#5. Former WWE Champion Bray Wyatt - Live in Fear

Look, I love The Fiend as much as the next guy. Really, everything Bray Wyatt does is complete genius. The man's mind is twisted and every time he comes on screen I'm glued to the TV.

As much as I love Wyatt's alternate persona and his entrance, including that heavy metal version of his old theme song...it's just not the same. The classic Live in Fear by Mark Crozer brings you the right mix of intrigue, confusion, and a sense of fear that's just dwelling below the water.

Cult leader Bray Wyatt was a character that WWE management really dropped the ball with, so The Fiend was a welcome surprise. And it's great that the song lives on in another version with The Fiend. However, it's just not the same.

Regardless, anytime Bray Wyatt is on screen we'll all be living in fear, no matter which version plays.

#4. Former NXT Champion Adam Cole - Undisputed

When WWE and NXT's greatest faction, The Undisputed Era, split up earlier this year it left fans heartbroken. For several reasons, really. The group was one of the most exciting and beloved factions in the company's history. It featured four of the best superstars the brand had to offer. It seemed like a true brotherhood.

Most importantly, they had one of the greatest WWE themes of all time associated with them. And that, my friends, is undisputed.

No, seriously, the name of the song is Undisputed. There are so many beats in this song associated with the Era, specifically Adam Cole and breakout star Kyle O'Reilly. Everyone knew them. Right at 1:01 in the song, the entire crowd would erupt with a "Boom" and a little while later everyone in attendance would shout "Adam Cole Bay-Bay!"

Kyle O'Reilly's sick air guitar rifts also added to it, making every entrance of the arrogant Era feel like a party with the elite of the brand. Though everyone has now found their own themes, Adam Cole's feels rather generic and a bit underwhelming. Being the leader of the group, he could've kept the song going forward.

We saw WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns use The Shield's song for seven years before finally transitioning to something else a few months back.


#3. WWE RAW Superstar Keith Lee- Limitless

Seriously, WWE. Why? Why did you let this banger of a song slip through your fingers?

The opening few seconds followed by Keith Lee himself singing his own song is just perfection. You get the choir singing "Bask in his Glory" while Lee comes in, confident, cocky and sure of himself, saying "For he is...Limitless." Every crowd that saw NXT live shot to their feet whenever this one rang out.

It was clear during his entrance that the Limitess One himself loved it as well, hitting a few poses for certain moments on his way to the ring.

When it comes to recent songs that were lost during the WWE Pandemic Era, this is number two on that list. However, another former NXT Champion recently switched out his music, much to the chagrin of fans around the globe.

#2. Former WWE US Champion Robert Roode - Glorious Domination

WWE, specifically NXT, had a run for a few years where they were delivering banger after banger when it came to their music. Finn Balor, Kevin Owens, Shinsuke Nakamura, Sami Zayn, Drew McIntyre, Aleister Black. The list goes on for a long time.

However, when it comes to the greatest NXT theme song of all time, that title may go to the Glorious One himself, Robert Roode. The former NXT Champion's music was an instant hit with audiences, with the NXT faithful learning the lyrics in no time.

Sometimes, there's a fear that when superstars move to WWE's main roster, the love for them won't transfer over. Luckily for Roode, his theme song was so loved that every crowd in the world became enamored with him.

The newer theme that he uses with fellow Dirty Dawg partner Dolph Ziggler is...fine. But honestly, it's nowhere near as good as the themes both men have used before in their singles runs.

#1. Former WWE Champion Drew McIntyre - Broken Dreams

Oddy enough, the last entry on this list has a lot to do with the first. Drew McIntyre has gone on record many times that he'd love to have Broken Dreams back, and he's heard the fans' pleas for it.

In an appearance on the Battleground podcast, McIntyre actually taunted Sheamus about fans not wanting "Lobster Head."

While that couldn't be further from the truth, fans are also hoping to one day hear Broken Dreams.

"I don't see anyone asking for 'Lobster Head', everyone's asking about Broken Freakin Dreams. One of these days, that music is going to come back. I hear this question all the time, I see it every day on social media. One of these days I'm going to get it approved, have it for a show. I'm positive we still have the rights to it," said McIntyre

The former WWE Champion followed up, saying that fans better have that song memorized because he'd be disappointed if he came out with it and the audience didn't know what was happening.
