Get ready for the ultimate wrestling music showdown! For decades, Jim Johnston and Jimmy Hart defined the sounds of the WWF/WWE and WCW, crafting the iconic themes that made their stars legends. But when you put their catalogs side-by-side, who comes out on top?
In this VERZUZ-style battle, we compare the musical genius of two of professional wrestling's most important composers:
🎧 Jim Johnston: The Maestro of the Attitude Era
The in-house WWE composer for over 30 years, Johnston created the character-defining themes for an entire generation:
• "Stone Cold" Steve Austin (with the glass shatter)
• The Undertaker (The eerie gong and funeral march)
• The Rock, Triple H, Randy Orton, and more!
🎤 Jimmy Hart: "The Mouth of the South" & Hitmaker
Better known as a legendary manager in the WWF and WCW, Jimmy Hart was also a prolific composer. His themes were catchy, rocking, and instantly recognizable:
• The Honky Tonk Man
• The Hart Foundation
• The Rockers
• Entrance themes for Hulk Hogan and the nWo Wolfpac in WCW!
From the Attitude Era anthems to the classic rock sounds of the 80s and 90s, we dive deep into the music, the history, and the legacy of these two musical powerhouses.
