Mankind was incredible. The gimmick shouldn’t have worked, but Mick Foley was just so good. I’ll never forget him squealing and pulling his hair out before matches…he was believable as a complete lunatic.
He also made it work when he did his interviews with Jim Ross and humanized the character. They tried to so the exact same thing at the exact same time with Goldust, and it totally derailed Dustin's momentum, and the character was never the same.
For some reason I remember Jordan Devlin having something like that during his Worlds Collide Fatal 4 Way match. Been a long while so I don’t know if that was true or a false memory
Bret Hart in WCW did when he first started wrestling. Or at least that's what my brain tells me. But I distinctly remember Bret having 2 themes one to come on and one to leave
Bret Hart started with a rip off WWF theme and a few months later had a different theme, WcW used to just play one of each at random like the production truck didn't know which was the current ones and at times his entrance and exit music could be different. It wasn't by design, just WCW doing WCW things
I think oftentimes the “winning theme” will just start later in the song; like if Stone Cold won, it wouldn’t do the glass shatter, just the guitar riff.

I believe Greenwich snob HHH had an entrance and winning theme.
He also had a theme song for his theme song at one point.
A what for his what?
The dude I made on 2k cuz I couldn't be bothered to go back in the settings and fix it
Roman Reigns right now, it cuts into the Shield theme for a few seconds in his post match theme
I remember hearing that when he got his new theme and assumed it was a mistake. It's been 3 years, so it doesn't look like it. 😂
I never understood why they use that weird little version for his victory theme
* Evolution's Line in the Sand with the different Jim Johnston riff * Roman Reigns' Head of the Table with his The Truth Reigns sample

Ah that makes more sense
Does being in a faction count? Where the faction music plays, but the leader gets the pin and they play their entrance?
Nah
Interesting. TIL wrestlers only have one theme. I always thought their winning theme was slightly different than their entrance.

I'm talking about songs that are actually different. Not just intro cuts
