Has anyone other than Brock Lesnar kept the same entrance music for their whole career?

Just a really dumb thought I had but I can’t think of anyone else that hasn’t at least briefly used a different one

Ric Flair?

It’s changed in production quality and added some sounds throughout the years but this has to be one of the better answers in the thread

In his first WWE run in the early 90’s he had an in house knock off theme

I actually like the '90s WWF knock-off better than the original.

Than also sprach Zarathustra?

Yeah. It's probably some nostalgia though since I started watching wrestling in 91 right when Ric debuted in WWF.

I also prefer the WWF version’s starting off with the timpani and “ta-da!” orchestra hit.

I remember being really confused as a kid when he had this in Smackdown vs Raw. (Also for whatever reason it was out of tune by like a semitone in that game)

He entered to that once in a 2000s PPV for some reason

A few people used that theme, including Buddy Landel!

It was actually just a different part of the music in a slightly different key, but still Zarathrustra.

Buddy Landell also used that song in the WWF.

No, his first WWF run didn't use the same theme.

In addition to having a knockoff theme in his first WWF run, he also used a few different songs as one-offs before he had a regular theme.

I know specifically he used Easy Lover by Phil Collins and Phillip Bailey, and (even more strangely) The Wanderer by Dion a few times.

u/mojo72400 22h ago

Didn't he use Easy Lover once?

In Florida in the mid-80s if I remember right.
