Cody Rhodes would change his WWE theme song under one condition.
Appearing on Matt and Shane’s Secret Podcast, Undisputed WWE Champion Cody Rhodes discussed how his relationship with his theme song, Kingdom, has evolved over time.
Rhodes explained that a great wrestling theme doesn’t necessarily need to be musically complex, but it does need to be memorable and catchy.
“The trick with a wrestling song, all the greatest wrestling music, it doesn’t need to be a good song. It needs to be a catchy song. I like ‘Kingdom,’ but the issue is, I hear it so much that, especially at the end of the night when I’m doing the rounds, just playing that one song, it gets you.”
He also shared a personal anecdote, noting that his daughter Liberty has started singing along to the theme despite not knowing the actual lyrics.
“I heard my daughter the other day, she doesn’t know the words, but she’s saying, ‘something, something, Paw Patrol.’ As long as you get to the Woah! It’s a pretty interesting song by WWE standards.”
Rhodes emphasized that the song is unlikely to change anytime soon, unless there’s a major shift in his on-screen character.
“I can say this, it can never change. Unless I was to go bad guy, then that song is out, I suppose, but I’m locked into it. We’re married together.” [WrestlingNews.co]
