Best theme ever!

Has there ever been a more kick-ass theme than Alter Bridge's 'Metalingus', for Edge? I don't think so!

The second time we have had Mark Tremonti, Brian Marshall and Scott Phillips on this list, the former members of Creed quickly formed Alter Bridge with singer Myles Kennedy in early 2004, shortly after the Creed split.

Look who just shut down all of Tony Khan's critics! More HERE.

Edge revealed in an interview he had been hanging out with Mark in his house when the guitarist sang 'Metalingus' for him (before Myles joined).

Edge loved it so much, that he took a recorded version of the song to WWE and requested it to be used as his new entrance theme, and WWE happily obliged.

While the band got some publicity as the former members of Creed, it was WWE's use of 'Metalingus' that really helped Alter Bridge get on track. Fans questioned who the band was so often online that WWE invited them to appear on an episode of RAW in 2005 in a backstage segment with Edge.

WWE has also used the songs 'Find The Real', for the Royal Rumble 2005, 'Rise Today' for Unforgiven 2007, 'In Loving Memory' as a tribute to Eddie Guerrero, and more.
