That sucks. He made so many of my favorites. But I think they use CFO$ now, for the most part, right? I haven't watched the product in over a year, personally

He will be missed, for sure. He produced so many unique and diverged tunes that are quite memorable to this day.

He made so many great songs over his 30+ year tenure with WWE. From the old classics like the iconic instrumentals that The Undertaker and Stone Cold used... to the very last theme he made for WWE, the awesome and totally-metal-as-fuck song that Baron Corbin now uses... and every song in between...

He will be missed, but his music is a part of WWE history forever.

Outstanding theme, should have been used more. Was only used once or twice IIRC.

I can understand why it was only used sparingly, though. It's a very oily and methodical composition, which was counter to Austin's brash, kick-the-door-down persona. Sounds a lot like he mixed in Razor Ramon.

It seemed like they couldn't settle on a theme for him as a heel, he went through new themes every 2-3 weeks. They finally settled on this:

I can see your point, though it is interesting that they still chose to include that theme in the video game (and the Disturbed one) and not the others.

Another article said that his contract wasn't renewed. Considering that they've been using CFO$ to make entrance music since 2015, this was likely seen as a redundancy manoeuvre.

Ummmmm, what?!?!

Damn, and I think he actually owns the rights to a lot of his songs. Seems like a poor choice just because of that.

The Razor Ramon theme has a similar car screeching sound too! Though not the crash.

I remember years and years ago I said Austin's theme is a ripoff of Razor's and every smark laughed at me.

Why does WWE like to release talent so much. It's almost like they don't like money.

WWE making a bad decision and letting someone with actual talent go? I'm shocked. I guess he wasn't safe and generic and hip enough for them.
