Randy Orton Admits He Considered Changing His Iconic Theme Music
The WWE Universe loves Randy Orton‘s “Voices” entrance theme, but there was a point where it almost got changed.
SmackDown Superstar Randy Orton recently sat down with Carl Lamarre of Billboard. When asked about when he first realized that his “Voices” entrance theme had gotten bigger than anyone had anticipated, Orton confirmed an old report that there was consideration to change his theme when he returned to WWE in 2023.
“I didn’t know, man,” Randy Orton said. “I mean, how do ya? Because it’s a little slower and I know the guys who sing it hate hearing me say this, but it wasn’t ever my absolute favorite. Matter of fact, I was going to change my music coming back from my back surgery in late 2023. We ended up making the decision to keep it. And we were going to change it when I got into something big or turned heel.
“Then, we go to Leon, France. And I think it was a year ago that we were there — and I mean, everything changed. The whole place was singing my song word-for-word. And from that point forward, every venue, every show, no matter where we’re at, more or less, the crowd is singing or at least trying to sing to my song. I ain’t changing it now. It took 16, 17 years, however long I had that song, but they’re finally singing it. Hell yeah.
“Seth [Rollins] comes out and the place goes wild, and I’m thinking, “Man. I wish I had a song like that where the crowd went nuts.” Now, I’m closer to having that. Some times are louder than others, but overseas, come on — it gets insane with how loud those guys get singing that song.
“Back to your question, no, I didn’t think it was going to be as big of a song and work out well for me. As a matter of fact, I thought we could do better. But now, at this point, I’m feeling it more than I’ve ever before, because that crowd is finally singing along and feeling it too.”
