Awesome Entrance Themes: CM Punk

[Davey Wrestling]

Ladies and Gentlemen, in celebration of the (almost certain) most anticipated return to a wrestling ring of the past 10 years (and my very own return to Wrestling Smarks! *cheap pop*) I present to you a double header of Awesome Entrance Themes.

Whether he's a Cookie Monster, Chicago Made or the Straight Edge Saviour, CM Punks two WWE themes were fantastic... but how do you rate them (both).

You can see a table of our previous ratings below the videos if you want to check up on whats been rated so far.

Let me know your scores out of 10 for both of these videos below and we'll get AET rolling again!

Video one: This Fire Burns

​

Video two: Cult of Personality

Fire burns : 9
I love this song more than cult. Badass intro yell. Really great titan tron. But
Cult of personality: 10
It's simply perfect as a titantron. The scratch to begin let's you know immediately who it is. The titantron facials are top tier. It just screams cm punk. Truly a classic walkout

 

[Chris]

Will go 9 for This Fire Burns and 10 for Cult as well

7 for Burns. Was never really high on it. The middle chorus kinda bangs, but I hate the heavy metal parts.

10 for Cult. It's just pure perfection. Probably top 5 most iconic songs that are just synonymous with their wrestler.

 

[Comrade Khan]

Yeah if you don't like metal fire burns is like....reaaaally heavy for mainstream so I figured it's not overyones cup of tea. But my lord the opening guitar slide into the waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah yeahhhhhh! Is fucking siiiiiiiiiiick

 

[PeepShow]

8 for This Fire Burns

10 for Cult of Personality

Like Cicada said, Cult is just so synonymous with Punk and is perfect for his...personality

 

[TeaDrinkingLimey]

8.5 - This Fire Burns
I would have given it a 7 because I’m not into “shouty metal” too much.
But it gets an additional 1.5 because I’ll NEVER forget that pop at Money in the Bank 2011.

10 - Cult of Personality. Perfect theme for Punk.
Also reminds me of GTA San Andreas.

I know Cult was Punks tune for a long time, but for me that came after the good stuff - the SES, Nexus, THAT Money In the Bank. And them switching between the two songs for Punks comeback (which got a piss-poor reaction specifically because people didn't attach Punk to Cult of Personality at that point) really turned me off it.

It's a good tune, a really good tune, but it's not a ten. For me at least. And weighing it up against the tunes already in the table, it's nowhere near Hogans, let alone anything above that.

I'd mark out more for This Fire Burns in AEW than I would for Cult. But both are Punk.

This Fire Burns: 9
Cult of Personality: 8.5

 

[Kiffy Lube]

Fire burns: 8
Cult: 10

WWE should have let Punk use Cult as soon as he wanted to though.

 

[Marty McFourth]

I always preferred Cult of Personality over Fire Burns. Personally feel it fit Punk like a tee. I do love Fire Burns during his MITB entrance though.

Cult literally gives me goosebumps. Plus I love the entrance video.

Fire burns: 8.5
Cult: 10

10 - Cult of Personality. Perfect theme for Punk.
Also reminds me of GTA San Andreas.

Oh my god, dude, totally.

I legit used to get kind of sad hearing it in GTA San Andreas. I replayed it on PS4 and I used to just think of Punk not being in wrestling anymore when it came on.

I legit used to get kind of sad hearing it in GTA San Andreas. I replayed it on PS4 and I used to just think of Punk not being in wrestling anymore when it came on.

I replayed it last year during quarantine and felt the same way.

Let’s hope that changes this coming Friday.

New AEW version and Punks debut below (because why not)

 

[Comrade Khan]

I love the new double fist logo uts amazing

 

[Smart Marx]

I love that AEW was able to upload the theme to their music channel and that new KhanTron (if it's not called that, it should be) is amazing.
