Maven Reflects On ‘Tattoo’ Theme Song In WWE, ‘It Was Probably Perfect’
Maven looks back on his WWE theme song.
Throughout his time with the company, Maven used Mercy Drive’s ‘Tattoo’ song as his entrance music. The song was widely unappreciated at the time, as fans gravitated towards other songs like Randy Orton’s ‘Burn In My Light’ and Edge’s ‘Metalingus’.
Speaking with Ropes N Riffs for a new interview, Maven said he had no idea that he was using ‘Tattoo’ until he was getting ready for his entrance.
“The song was probably perfect for me with what I was coming in from being the first ever tough enough contestant how it just starts off and I can see my fantasy. I heard it when the rest of the world heard it. I had no clue, I’m standing in gorilla position and I heard Pat Patterson and Briscoe telling me “go out”. So, yeah, that’s it. I wanted at the time, something really rock, like Hunter’s Motorhead. Or something hip hop related. Like when I started doing TNA I came out to what you know about that from TI. But it was probably perfect. God damn it. It probably was. I admit it. Yeah. I guess I’d give it to me if I had to.”
Maven recently stated that MJF is current favorite wrestler. Check out his full comments by clicking here.
