A great entrance song can help compliment any wrestling superstar. It's as important for establishing a wrestler's identity as great in-ring attire. At AEW, entrance themes have become a huge part of the culture. When "Judas" by Fozzy plays for Chris Jericho, everyone sings along to the tune. When Jungle Boy's theme plays, audiences sing "Oh" with the melody.

Although many AEW wrestlers have some of the best entrance songs of their career at AEW, others have had more iconic better themes at other companies. This list will examine 10 AEW stars and their best entrance theme song ever.
10 Jon Moxley - "Unscripted Violence"
Jon Moxley's current entrance theme, "Wild Thing," was met with a mixed review from fans. The song isn't bad it's just that "Unscripted Violence," his prior song, was perfect.
With a visceral heavy metal sound, the tune is as aggressive as Moxley has been presented in AEW. It matches his "brute force" better than any entrance song he's ever had and he will hopefully revert back to this track in the future.
9 Keith Lee - "Born To Bring It"
Keith Lee's entrance songs have been as up and down as his career. The best theme of his career was one of his early WWE themes "Born To Bring It."
Lee exists somewhere between "beast" and "well-spoken wrestler." This song perfectly personifies everything that is Keith Lee. It's similar to his current AEW song "I AM," but has a little more personality.
8 Chris Jericho - "Judas"
Chris Jericho has had many entrance songs throughout his over three-decade-long career. One of the best aspects of his time at AEW has been his entrance theme song "Judas" performed by Jericho's rock band, Fozzy.
The title alone personifies Jericho who has been a great heel for a large part of his career. "Judas" is so great that fans can't help but sing along to the lyrics aloud even after Jericho calls them all "parasites."
7 Christian - "Just Close Your Eyes"
"Just Close Your Eyes," much like Christian, is very underrated. It's truly the entrance song of a world champion. He actually won the WWE World Heavyweight Title when he had this tune as his intro theme.
It's aggressive, attention-getting, and very well performed. It was one of his earlier WWE themes and the best song he's ever had. His current AEW theme (that was used at TNA as well) is fun, but it lacks the magic of "Just Close Your Eyes."
6 Orange Cassidy - "Where Is My Mind"
Orange Cassidy is one of the most "out there" wrestlers on AEW's roster. His recent entrance song change was actually a step back for him. Although "Jane," his new theme song is technically an "old theme song" because he used it in the indies, it does not compare to "Where Is My Mind."
The smug California-esque chords of "Where Is My Mind" were perfect for Cassidy. There's enough arrogance to the song to sell Cassidy, but not annoy everyone around him. It's also perfect for anyone who wears as much denim as Cassidy.
5 Andrade El Idolo - "Make A Difference"
Andrade has taken on a more aggressive persona at AEW but still hasn't established himself among the major ranks at the company. His current entrance song, "Kill The Messenger" has two parts and the combination of the two (very different) songs always sounds disjunct.
"Make A Difference," Andrade's WWE theme had much more personality in it than his current song. It shows how unapologetically Mexican Andrade is without adding congas and maracas for no reason, like many other "Mexican-themed" entrance songs.
4 Sting - "Crow Theme"
In terms of iconic in-ring entrances, few wrestlers can say they are as memorable stepping into the ring as Sting. If he'd spent his entire career at the WWE instead of away from the company, his "crow entrance" might be the most well-known wrestling entrance of all time.

Sting had a few entrance songs over his long career but his "Crow" theme will always be his quintessential trademark song. It's dark, ominous, and iconic like Sting.
3 Ruby Soho - "Ruby Soho"
Ruby Soho has had an up-and-down career at AEW. She never fails to make an impact when she's on-screen but has struggled with injuries. The AEW's very unbalanced Women's Division hasn't helped her and she seems like one of the wrestlers likely to eventually end up back at the WWE.
Still, her AEW entrance song, "Ruby Soho' is one of the funniest entrance songs of the entire AEW roster. It's a punk rock song that says her name a million times. It fits Soho perfectly and often emits a pop when it's sounded. It's the best of her career by far.
2 Miro - "The Best Man"
Although Miro has made some strides in his career at AEW, "Rusev" (his gimmick at the WWE) will always be a huge "what if" for wrestling fans. His theme music as "Rusev" was far too generic. "The Best Man," on the other hand, sets Miro up as the beast he's capable of being. Miro is still waiting for a "career-defining moment" at AEW, but he does have a great entrance song.
1 CM Punk - "Cult Of Personality"
Few entrance songs emit the same response as "Cult Of Personality." Whether fans love or hate CM Punk, especially after his actions after AEW' All Out 2022, it's hard to argue he doesn't have a great entrance song.

"Cult Of Personality" by Living Colour was a hit long before Punk began to use the tune after the "Summer of Punk" in 2011. It's the best entrance of his career and one of the best of all time.
