Seth Rollins arrived on Sunday night to challenge Drew McIntyre for the WWE Championship. But when it was time for his entrance, fans watching at home didn’t hear the old guitar riffs and singer screaming “BURN IT DOWN!” Instead Rollins arrived to an operatic theme, one that felt like it had been pulled out of a church choir. The reaction to the change was noticeably divided on social media โ some fans had grown to love the over-the-top guitar theme Rollins had used since his split from The Shield, while others pointed out the new theme was a much better fit.

Fits Like a (Black) Glove
This new theme is great, fits the character really well instead of the generic “haha I’m a wrestler and thats the entirety of my gimmick ” character. This is the best Seth Rollins there has ever been

Maybe It’s Better
Seth Rollins has a new theme song that replaces his old, metal, aggressive song. Hmmm, his new theme song sounds like a Final Fantasy video game song. Fits his Monday Night Messiah character better than his old theme song. #MITB
