Former WWE composer Jim Johnston is frequently cited as a notable omission from WWE’s Hall of Fame, with fans recognizing his significant contributions to the product. However, while discussing whether Johnson should be honored, Bruce Pritchard told his podcast listeners that, over the years, Johnston’s work began to “all sound the same,” seemingly suggesting this is why he was let go.
And while few people understand the backstage operations and creative side of WWE better than Prichard, this take has led to online fans strongly disagreeing, with popular YouTuber Justin Whang tweeting, “Tell me how Stone Cold’s theme, Chuck and Billy, Kane, and Bret Hart’s themes sound the same?”
73-year-old Johnston served as WWE’s primary music composer from the mid-1980s until his 2017 departure, a span of more than 30 years. Single-handedly, he created dozens of iconic entrance themes, including those for The Undertaker, Vader, The Rock, The Brood, DX, and Triple H, which was famously in collaboration with Motörhead. This work helped define WWE and led to multiple platinum-selling albums, including WWF The Music, Vol. 4, which reportedly sold over 1.2 million copies.
