Jim Johnston first interview after WWE release

[PlayerNinety_Nine]

Jim wrote 'I Can't Wait To Be Alone With My Baby Tonight' for his wife and they decided to use it for Jarrett after the fact

 

[818star]

I bet this is all Kevin Dunn's fault!

 

[L68]

This is fukked up..neckbeards at the live TV shows need to start a chant about it ..

 

[Ripp]

Mark my words nobody will be over at a rock/Austin level ever again because of this. How many of our favorite wrestlers had songs by him

same with the garbage announce team... also dude just got fired and theme songs been trash for a while now.... maybe he fell off? I fukks with jim but remind me what his last hot theme song was

 

[Amor fati]

I'm listening on the podcast app on roku so it doesn't have a timestamp. It shows its almost halfway

Alright, thanks.

 

[Amor fati]

I had to youtube his theme after listening and found this

This person killed it

So beautiful

Nice one.

 

[Amor fati]

The CFO$ cat sounds like a fruit loop beat maker that sells or leases beats online.

 

[DANJ!]

By rhe way, anyone notice Ravishing Rick Rudes theme is different now on the Network?

Yeah... but Rude's music isn't a Johnston theme, that's a real song... licensing issue I guess. Still sucks tho'.

everyone wishes taker was done..... but tell me what yall will do without hearing the GOATs theme anymore... he didn't officially retire... he's not finished until he says he is....idc who he wrestles... could be a 10sec squash vs curt hawkins.... Undertaker is wrestlemania...and we need his 10minute piffery entrances until he is physically unable to deliver them

the pop in 20yrs when he gets carted to the ring in a wheelchair by druids only to rise out of the wheelchair and climb the steps and turn the lights on


idc how much super technically flippy shyt anyone thinks is better than the undertaker. stop acting like y'll didnt grow up on/with this nikka. I'm 29 years old... been watching wrestling since I was 1... Undertaker debuted when I was 2... granted I was scared of him until I was about 5 this dude has been as much a part of my life as any family member has.. sorry for the long ass post but this piano gave me chills and I cant imagine mania without the GOAT ever

I guess shytting on mean mark is cool these days but I can gaurantee you there isn't one person who wouldn't mark out for a random gong and the lights going out

I'm with you in terms of being a life long fan, but that's precisely why I DON'T want to see him in his current state. Makes me sad. Like, legit sad. Genuinely hard to watch some of these past few manias.

Wish more people thought like HBK when it comes to retirement.

 

[dh86]

With Vince, you have to tell him to eat shyt and walk out on him when he needs you most, then he’ll cater to you

hbk retired.. taker never said "I retire" so he's here until he says so.... 2 or 3 bad matches cant erase the years of classics he has put on. and he still has more ring presence than alor of these guys 20 years younger than him.. he may not be able to physically deliver like we are used to him doing but he still looks at home in the ring... the taker Roman match exposed Roman... there were multiple points in the match rome looked lost and didn' know what to do

 

[Big Jo]

I'm sure he made a shyt load of money in his time there

He did, at least according to Bruce Prichard

If my memory is correct, after he was let go, Bruce said over the years Jim had been highly compensated

 

[The Amerikkkan Idol]

Man fukk this company. Treating a GOAT like that

I think some of the current themes are good, but I agree alot of them are aso really generic. Take Seth Rollins. Dude is a main event level cat, but you could give his theme to anyone on the roster. There's nothing about it that you could specifically associate with Seth. Which, if you look at past main eventers and their themes, should be criminal. Rock, Austin, Taker, Jericho, Angle. All have themes that speak to exactly who their characters are as people.

Same thing with Cesaro & Kevin Owens and a lot of those themes that all just kind of bleed together

He did, at least according to Bruce Prichard

Yeah, I think those WWF: The Music CDs used to sell in the millions and he was the main songwriter on them

 

[AquaCityBoy]

Well on the bright side, at least we get more generic, repetitive CFO$ themes
