WWE - The Patriot Theme

The Patriot's old WWF theme. The foundation for Kurt Angle's theme.

[@vincesmith2499]

If only the Patriot had wrestled Kurt Angle. Then we would have heard this theme twice in a row.

[@MelancoliaI]

Imagine if Angle introduced him as a mystery partner during the Attitude era. "Wait...did Kurt Angle clone himself???"

[@giolingad74]

Like Hulk Hogan vs Paul Orndorff.

[@HansenSebastian]

@@MelancoliaI The music would just keep going but with different instruments and arrangement. Except that will never happen because: 1. Kurt Angle has retired, and 2. The Patriot is dead

rest easy Patriot.... 😭😭😭😭 1961-2021

[@LPGD1994]

For the people that don't know. The patriot used this theme first when he was in the WWF in 97. It was used for Kurt when he made his debut in 99

[@j-manhoosier7373]

NAL Lopez Sgt Slaughter as well

[@TheKidyoung24]

@aDg 2k18 It was actually used at In Your House Dec 1997 in the Boot Camp Match...not KOTR. And in reality, Sgt.Slaughter came out to the Kurt Angle Medal V2 theme. If you watch the last few months The Patriot wrestled, he in fact adopted Medal V2 as well. Another interesting fact is that this isn't even the original Patriot theme. Watch his first few matches and you will see that this is merely a remake...albeit the best remake around, but a remake none the less. The Patriot had no sleigh bells in his theme actually.

[@MelancoliaI]

I have been to a couple house shows in that era, and this dude always got a MASSIVE pop. You couldn't hear yourself cough lol

[@MelancoliaI]

I think the bells fit Del's character. He was kind of a mystery man calling us to be better people, make our country better. I thought they worked nicely. And as a fellow native Pittsburgher, I thought Kurt's less 'wall of sound' theme suited him perfectly (although I prefer his TNA theme).

[@christianpalmer7234]

@@roodypoochrisw Yes I get that from a lot of different people on here, it's because it started from me being a WWE wrestling fan for years before I even had a KZbin account. I started watching it in the late 90s and early 2000s when it was WWF back then. Then I just got hooked on the product as a whole while most of my friends and family members outgrew it. I also comment on music that I listened to, video games I played or movies I watched during my childhood and teenage years (mostly live action and animated films).
