In 2002, the Rated-R Superstar was in the market for a brand new theme song. After splitting with Christian the previous year, Edge had adopted Rob Zombie's Never Gonna Stop. However, he had to drop it after a year for a new song.

After much deliberation, the choice was made for Edge to move to 'You Think You Know Me', a decision the future Hall of Famer didn't agree with.

Appearing on Chris Jericho's podcast, Edge said he never asked for the change, but the company had to after the rights to Rob Zombie's track had expired.

"I always hated that 'You Think You Know Me' music because it never fit me and what I actually listen to.
"It just sounded like a bad ripoff with this cheesy voice."

Perhaps the song was bad luck for the Canadian, as not long after receiving it, Edge would go down with an injury in February 2003 which forced him to miss over a year of action. Returning shortly after WrestleMania 20 in 2004, Edge would receive his much more iconic Metalingus song by Alterbridge which he uses to this day.
