What will the world be without music? All these unique sounds that give us joy, help through our sorrow, and motivate us are so important in our lives, it is often undervalued.

While most of the modern day music we hear is usually looked upon as three minutes of absurdity that has no substance or significance (some of that statement is true), music means different things to different people, so it's hard to criticise what someone else finds relatable.

In the area of wrestling, music is unimaginably important to the structure of the product, as imagine a world without Stone Cold's iconic glass shattering tune exploding as he comes down to the ring to whip ass, now try and fathom how different we would remember that moment today.

Think about how impactful The Undertaker's legacy with his legendary gong sounding off before the lights going out, we could be here all day talking about each one of wrestling most memorable theme tunes and how significant it was in shaping the product into the global powerhouse it is today.

But for the sake of your precious time, let us go through some of the best wrestling covers you might have not heard, and if you did, well done, you're ahead of the curve.


#1 Baron Corbin's Theme By Brooks Farris Drums

What a cover
What a cover

Baron Corbin has not been everyone's favourite heel ever since WWE started pushing him as the top guy on Smackdown Live all those years ago, but Corbin is just dpoing his job as a villainous bad guy.

However, the heat Corbin gets is not the one your typical heel gets, it's more along the line of go away.

This is not fair if you really rate Corbin's performances in the ring, as he can put on a clinic in the ring from time to time.

Therefore, If there is one thing fans can agree on about Corbin is that his theme song is awesome.

As Corbin's 'End of Days' soundtrack was still great before WWE updated it, but after the lyrics performed by Tommy Vext were added, this track went from great to absolutely fantastic.

So, if you were looking for the best cover of this song, look no more, as Brooks Farris' drum cover of the song is the best cover on Youtube at the moment.

#2 CM Punk's Theme By Pro Wrestling Goes Acoustic

A lotof humour in this cover.

CM Punk has not been in the wrestling scene since 2014, but that has not stopped his legion of fans from screaming his name every time they get a chance, which just shows the amount of significance the Straight Edge Superstar still holds in the industry.

While there are multiple better covers of Cult of Personality by Living Color out there on YouTube, this one by Pro Wrestling Goes Acoustic might be the funniest.

This is one of Kyle and Oliver's most famous parodied WWE theme songs on their channel, and once you listen to it, it all starts to make sense.

From poking fun at Punk's issues with Vince McMahon to taking a jab at his obstacles with Ryback in the ring, this is a really good light-hearted parody that is a must see for any wrestling fan.

Moreover, it has been four years since this has been out, and it's still equally hilarious till this day.

#3 Shinsuke Nakamura's Theme By Multiple Artists

Every cover out there is awesome

Shinsuke Nakamura's theme song is possibly the best work WWE has done in a long time, as the company has not had a great amount of success with making each one of their Superstar's theme songs unique.

Most people complain that most of the CFO$ work sounds like a random bunch of beats thrown in together with little to no effort, but Nakamura's theme is an exception to that, as this is a theme song that has resonated with audiences' worldwide.

Therefore, that has lead to multiple covers of this song that have all sounded awesome in their own right, which made it truly hard for me to pick just one for you to listen to, so, here are all of them.

While the following might not be all the covers on Shinsuke Nakamura's theme, but they are surely some of the best out there.

From popular YouTubers like Kay Suzuki to less known talents such as the Damn Nation, many artists have given us their take on this popular WWE theme. All you can do is sit back and enjoy the amazing covers.

#4 Goldberg's Theme By Dillion Spears

Goldberg is one of the most popular powerhouses in wrestling history. This man was such a big star in the 90s. Many people believe that the invasion angle would not have failed if WWE waited for one of WCW's biggest stars to make his debut in Vince McMahon's compnay.

One of the things that made Goldberg an icon was his larger than life entrance to the ring, as just imagine standing across the ring from a man that had to be escorted to the ring by multiple police officers. While it all might be kayfabe, Goldberg presence in the industry can't be understated.

The following cover of Goldberg's theme 'invasion/who's next' does him justice. Dillion Spears is one of the best professional wrestling cover artists out there, aand that is due to the fact that the man is a professional in his field.

His work has been used on TV, radio, and even film, so when you see the body of work Spears has put together, it leaves you asking the question of what's next from this talented individual? Goldberg's theme is covered in such a way one could mistake the track for a movie score, it's that good.

#5 The Undertaker's Theme By Dillion Spears

Different versions one epic theme song.
Different versions one epic theme song.

In my opinion, this cover might be the greatest wrestling cover on Youtube, and it's no surprise that it's once again by Dillion Spears.

The Undertaker is possibly the greatest character in professional wrestling. There is not one fan or fellow wrestler that is yet to argue that claim, as the longevity The Phenom has enjoyed in this business is unheard off.

The Undertaker has only been relevant for so long due to his ability to keep on evolving in the ring and as a character. From the Leader of The Ministry of Darkness to being The American Badass, The Deadman has been changing up his act over the years, but if there is one thing that has stayed the same is the sound of that legendary gong.

The Undertaker's theme song is one of Jim Johnston's best creations, and in Spears cover, he took this iconic theme and made it into a score worthy of a billion dollar movie. If WWE does not use this cover in Undertaker's Hall of Fame video package, then what is Youtube for?

All of these covers were incredible and make sure to support these channels, as the work these artists have produced has been unbelievable.
