the guitar riff/solo touches a part of my soul no other entrance song can.

[@CWG8926]

At 1:28 that entire part and then at 2:25. That shit hits my soul in the best way possible. I remember when I heard this in WWE 2k14 and falling in love with it ever since.

[@AD-ur1fk]

So nostalgic. Takes me back to those days

[@NitroNEXT]

This was his most triumphant and heroic sounding theme. My first PPV was Summerslam 2002 and this always reminds me of those days.

[@justinsayswtf]

Same here!!! This theme gives me a lot of childhood nostalgia. Ironically The Rock was not triumphant at all at SummerSlam 2002 lol. 20 years later and Lesnar is still destroying people.

[@worksahara3127]

@@justinsayswtf It wasn't about being a champion or triumphant like winning a match anymore....He was already way bigger than WWE at this moment....He was a much bigger megastar...This just highlights his accomplishments until 2002...And after this comes another iconic legendary version of the Rock ...The Hollywood Rock...He was way above WWE by this point..

[@jerelminter]

This was The Rock's new music on RAW IS WAR in late July of 2001 when he returned during the Alliance storyline to decide which team he'll be on. The Rock gave Vince McMahon a Rock Bottom and shook hands with Shane McMahon pretending to turn heel but gave him a Rock Bottom and The People's Elbow too. Then said : "Finally The Rock has come back to the WWF" "If you smell what The Rock is cooking".

@@thegtafanbase5556 This was a bad theme in my opinion. Yeah it has the same beat but it lacks the bass and the percussion that his older ones had and he doesn't say "The Rock Says" anymore.

This is my favorite Rock theme of all time. Every time he'd pose on the turnbuckle with the title and you just hear that sweet electric guitar in the background, perfection.

[@atifqavi2054]

Whenever I hear this theme, it reminds me of two matches: Team WWF vs. Team Alliance at Survivor Series and Rock vs. Hogan at WrestleMania X8.

When I was a skinny teenager starting out bodybuilding. I had this on repeat for most of my workouts on my MP3.

He needs to use this theme again 🥶

[@Greenbeans0987]

Now this is a song that goes thru highs and lows just like life with the guitar riffs experiences that leaves you changed for ever!

[@YoursTruelySouvanik]

Undoubtedly one of the most successful wrestlers in the history of WWE. He also deserves hall of fame

[@derekcwly]

This theme makes me want to relive the Summer of 2001 so bad.

[@jw870206]

Hands down the best entrance theme he's ever had. I wish this was his theme when he came back in 2011...ten years after we first heard it when he made a triumphant return during the Invasion angle. I still get chills watching that moment.

[@smoothkidd272k6]

I hear ya, if u saw the rock live in person back then wwe would play this song out and in the middle of the song i get chills cause it reminded me of the first only raw in baton rouge, la. Dudleys vs rock for the wcw title tables match. 10-1-01

[@briandrum1]

+jw870206 IDK. I watched his debut at the Survivor Series in 96, and all of the Attitude Era. I stopped watching WWF/WWE around 2003 and just got back into it a couple years ago...actually, I showed my son some old videos from the "good ole' days" and next thing I know we're watching RAW every Monday since. I honestly think Electrifying is the best he's had. It's just *huge* sounding, so when he hits the stage it fits him perfectly. Just my opinion....

[@DrSkyHookShot]

+Briandrum I agree. Electrifying is the best one in my opinion also.

[@YoFool.1506]

+Briandrum I stopped watching around Wrestlemania 20...

[@jerelminter]

He still uses the same "If you smell" part from the beginning of this song, the beat isn't the same though.
