The Apex Predator was a guest on the Pat McAfee Show yesterday, where he spoke about his opponents in the Elimination Chamber, Tom Brady, and more. The interview started with McAfee praising his theme song, where Orton dropped a bomb. He doesn’t vibe with Voices.

“I’ve had that entrance song since 2008, that’s forever. Nobody ever sang it. God bless the guys that sing the song, it wasn’t my favorite.” [1:00-1:16]

Entrance music is supposed to pump you up, but Orton said his song never did it for him. In fact, he thought about changing the song a few times. And had the incredible crowd in Lyon, France, not sung it at the top of their lungs a few years ago, Orton might’ve been given a Def Rebel “classic” instead.

Randy Orton kept Voices because of the WWE fans in France

Orton went on to mention Trick Williams’ theme song, music that seems to get the entire arena on their feet and rocking wherever WWE lands. Orton admitted that, even if he has two left feet, he can’t help but get moving when The Anointed One’s song hits. When he came back from his spinal fusion surgery, he discussed swapping it.

That was until Lyon, France, started a trend. At Backlash 2024, the entire live crowd sang along to Rev Theory’s song, and Orton knew that he couldn’t abandon it.

“And we were thinking about new music, and then I came back, and it was like, ‘Man, I’ve had it forever. The fans like it.’ And then all of a sudden we’re in Lyon, and they start singing it. And then the next week they start singing it, and then we come back across the pond back to the States, they start singing it, and I’m like, ‘Okay, this is my music.” [1:48-2:05]

Thankfully, Randy Orton decided to ride with Voices. It’s hard to imagine The Viper without the fans echoing that song around the world.
