Growing up in the 80s, one of the many things that I loved was pro wrestling. Being from the south, I enjoyed the southern style 'raslin. Georgia Championship and Florida Championship were always fun to watch when they were on air.
By the mid-80s, the Jim Crockett Promotions NWA was my favorite outlet, but via Saturday Night's Main Event and eventually renting VHS tapes of the WWF PPVs, my brother and I became more familiar with WWF, now the WWE.
Wrestling theme songs have not always been important, but since the late 80s, theme songs or entrance music has been a very important part of the personas created in the squared circle.
I have compiled a top ten list of my favorite wrestling theme songs.
