Raw Opening: 2002

[j2thacherry]

Back when wwe kicked ass.

[91exile]

When EVOLUTION ruled now it is a faggot raw

[Dgadsden28]

Pause @ 0:23

[DaringDarkwingDuck]

@Dgadsden28 I have seen them for years, and everyone made me feel like I was the only one that saw them. Those are two lesbians getting it on. When the singer says "get it on", he's referring to them.

[DaringDarkwingDuck]

@Dgadsden28 Here they are rubbing up against each other too- 0:05

[TheeAWmazingone]

Back when Jeff Hardy and RVD were jumping off ladders which was completely awesome, Kane was in my opinion the best or one of the best wrestlers and HHH was the world heavyweight Champion instead of the COO...Miss the good old days..

[biogamer100]

2002-2004 Was Great IMO.

Hot Women, Great Wrestlers, A Good Midcard, Great Main events. Now it's shit besides a couple wrestlers and the Divas are ugly and can't wrestle.

[phapisawesome]

song of the name :)) ???

[ForeverLegendF]

@phapisawesome Union Undeground-Across the nation

[phapisawesome]

@ForeverLegendF thx..

[1viciousguy]

best raw intro ever! man i miss the old days when i was entertained with great matches and Storylines.

[ar4ur1]

Y OH Y DID WWE CHANGE THIS SONG AND THE ERA.

MY BROTHER IS 10 AND HE LOVES WWF NOT WWE HE WATCHES IT BUT LISTENS TO THIS MORE THAN NICKLEBACK

WHAT HAPPENED?

[XCWDrake]

this is what we call wrestling kids

[ItsTimeIDisappear09]

Holy shit how EVERY WWE fan over 14 and male misses this. Just wow.

Just how WWE should be.

Attitude.

Entertainment.

[King2123]

I always like this intro but hated the song

[crazy12345678942]

back when wwe was good.

[HartmanHovic]

RAW 2

[bepjr]

Yeah there's Jeff Hardy and Lita ^.^. Boy things has changed for the worst for Raw.

[xoanixo93]

The best raw intro! I adored Trish Stratus and when she left, the divas division wasn't the same.

But, just like everything else (music, movies) its gone to shit. We need more talent out there! I honestly think it's technologies fault. If people weren't so wrapped up in technology, they would be more out there doing things. They would be finding things to do to fill up their time (music, wrestling,etc) instead of going on the computer. Think about it.

R.I.P Raw Thank you for the memories.

[espibanez]

BLOOD

SEX

VIOLENCE

what more do you need?

[brackssn]

@jbbresers EVERYTHING

[FredY2C]

Ahh the good ol' days when there was blood and half-naked chicks just in the opening intro! Good luck getting any of that in the show itself nowadays!

[rufinobj031]

love stacy kiebler

[WWETeamBringIt25]

@jbbresers The WHOLE intro.

[TheRoflc0pterz]

what wwe games had this intro in them?

[artistsandbox]

brings back memories

[jbbresers]

How many things can you spot that aren't allowed anymore in the PG era?

[mztwigirl]

i miss this theme song

[GoTHEGringO]

Presss 6

[geeksunite99]

@GoTHEGringO XD

[FernieTRON]

WWE Dies When Eddie Guerrero Died

[ItsTimeIDisappear09]

@FernieTRON or when Chris Benoit died

[zzDzCzCzz]

Last great year on WWF wrestling 2002. Once The Rock left , Austin left and they pushed brittle bone Hogan as a main eventer, Batista, Sean O'Hare, Lesnar (even though he could wrestle) Cena and other pukes I gave up on the company. People become products of tough enough as well, gross.

[steiner8burgerston]

@zzDzCzCzz well Shawn Micheals returned that year, who was a better performer than Austin n Rock put together. in 2002 rock n austin,Nash,piper,steiner returned, goldberg debuted,HHH formed Evolution, kane unmasked and rampaged, the lesnar/angle feud,cena's heel gimmick,etc well i gues it was WWF you were looking for not WWE, which in most marks minds, are two separate things

[geeksunite99]

@zzDzCzCzz I stopped watching as soon as celebrity hosting started.

[AronHallan]

*Ruthless Aggression era*

[70719800]

when cena went to raw wwe became bad

[AhmadStpats]

lol the wrestlers features in this intro totally owns the current wwe roster lol. The current roster is a joke.

[Xanxus29]

Here Come The Music FAns and music Fans oh yeah...

[supertrain21]

Y2J Booker T RVD HHH Stone Cold Rock Ric Flair (mask) Kane Jeff Hardy HBK Holy shit, truly the glory days

[R1CKR0LL911]

back when wrestling was pretty good.

[DeemoCageTv]

sexiest intro ever. screws today's WWE big time

[Exoduso8]

Definitely the best era for RAW.

[BeyondDestiny]

0:22 who was that again? was that bradshaw when he was still in APA?

[JOHNNYCFC18]

this was the best era of raw

[Kickbuttprincess85]

I miss this :c

[xxjamaalxx]

only on wwe would i actually like like metal or rock music! they normally have some great tracks

[DDISTHEMAN50]

this is on of the best ones they have swag

[khaled1990ful]

2008-2011 intros are so gay

[misterE2012]

@khaled1990ful Play Nickelback over anything and it will look gay..

[DropDeadMvs]

EVERY WRESTLER IN THIS OPENING IS EPIC AS FUCK!

[DetectivScrout]

@DropDeadMvs even goldust? haha

[DropDeadMvs]

@DetectivScrout Hell yess! They just never gave Gold dust a good puch!

[MaricoL13]

@DropDeadMvs FUCK YEAH!!

[markpain98]

@DropDeadMvs From Jeff Hardy to Dolph Ziggler in the opening.... wow WWE PG ERA = FAIL

[S4NCT1FY]

@DropDeadMvs Cept Jeff Hardy, Ruined his Career.

[CIW1985]

2nd best era of RAW after the Attitude Era.

These days the show is complete garbage about 90% of the time.........and if it wasn't for the awesome CM Punk there wouldn't be anything worth watching on the show at all.

[mopaomokonzi78]

Best Intro Ever !

[RV510]

Don't get my wrong I love the attitude era intro, but when you saw that WWE signature and this song started playing. YOU KNEW SHIT WAS GONNA PICK UP

[christianyonas]

The recent RAW intro is nothing compared to THIS!

[AronHallan]

0:15 the sexy Stacy Kiebler, too fast? you blinked. that pretty smile and long legs...

she is in every intro with this song so its a Win!

8=============================­=====D

[Relic502]

When cena wasnt on raw being the champion. good times.

[RevolverKat]

2002-2006ish will remain to be my favorite era of the WWE it wasn't over the top like the Attitude era was but still had a good bit of it's flavor.

[sim24687193]

back when Raw didn't even need Cena yet............

[bl00dbath999]

GAWDDDDD DAMNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN that stacy keibler is f-ing hot

[NickTastical12]

Shemus :26?

[MegaDenden123]

@NickTastical12 i think thats tommy dreamer

[dailga]

@NickTastical12 its chris jericho

[younghatter]

The beginning of the end :/

[inickcullum]

Those were the days

[Saliva4444]

@bryanrocks456 Across the Nation by Union Underground

[Slim451]

this intro is what got you hype and ready for Raw. It was well... raw, it was intense, it was just... in your face attitude.

[greenswanton18]

Jeff Hardy. Nuff said. <3

[serraserra7]

CENA GO HOME

GIVE US BLOOD

[Ghouse666]

@serraserra7 ill never forget when they replayed Edge taking the world title from cena via MITB breifcase during the PG era and how they edited most of the blood off of Cena's face and only showed angles where you could barely see his face that shit pissed me off.

[THEFRESHISHERE]

@serraserra7 if cena goes wwe would still be pg

[tridentmovies]

@HotRodFan899

It's unwatchable. Deal with it. 

[Saskayz]

:`( this intro makes me cry, the wwe is god awful these days =\ stupid pg crap

[Mrgrimm9991]

im about to scream FFUUUUUCCCCCKKKKK!!!!!!!!!!!!! i cant stand wrestling today. this was the last badass theme.

[AssHoleThunder]

if you want WWE to be better, then we want TNA to get a lot of attention...but we'll see what triple h has in store for his..he does seem like one horny mother fucker so maybe the women can do sexier stuff again

[awesome12bm]

I LOVE STACIE KEIBLER SHE SO HOT

[DJCastro94]

tommy dreamer? 0:26 after trish and 0:13 after booker t

[theJx2001]

Raw was and always will be the superior brand smackdown is just the minor leagues

[rkovision]

[BYONDBAL]

[cenoevil54]

[enuvune]

[JJJ10JJJ]

[DeathAdder83]

other than "Thorn In Your Eye" circa 1998, this is the only Raw intro music that I've really liked. I mean I want to be luuuuuuved & BAAAALLS OUT............yesh.

[BadAssMacmillan]

[BadAssMacmillan]

i luv the part when kane pyro comes out

[jamesab04]

best Raw theme ever

[jriso12]

what is this song

[LoganMarvel]

@jriso12 

"Across the Nation"-Union Underground

[jufalo17]

I was 15 years old watching wwe raw on the new tnn+this intro=high testosterone levels.

[apexpredata]

I've watched WWE ever since I could remember, I remember watching with my dad and getting scared of Kane, cheering for Stone Cold and HBK. I didn't even really know what it was, it was just electric, heart pumping. I still watch the old stuff. 95-03 is my main wrestling era. What is WWE now? Nothing, if they were like they are now during the Monday Night Wars, they would've gotten destroyed.

[totallykyle111]

@apexpredata That's why TNA really needs to step it up. That would make WWE try harder and push the limits again if they were competing for ratings =p

[BrianRichterTV]

even 2002-2004, not that good as the Attitude Era, but sure hell a lot better than PG crap

[sa44ful1]

can any one tell me what is the name of this song i am tired of searching is???????????????

[Wolverinepowerup]

@sa44ful1

Across the nation by the Union Underground.

[LoveBug18h]

[LoveBug18h]

@Wolverinepowerup no man i mean the chicks not bradshaw lol

[wwechampjd1]

[TheEsquivel12]

I can't believe I was allowed to watch this when I was 10 O.o Good times...

[JETMOND96]

Damn I missed the heel Triple H and the Trish and Lita Rivalry bcuz da divas nowadays sucks.

[ssjcajas]

[1998cooldude1]

[TheSalman5555]

[JonRyderzRVD]

i grew watching WWF from the post Attitude Era in 2001 and i was only 3 watching it with my dad and and bro and i still remember the first Raw episode though i have seen a sh*t load of pay per views on VHS of the Attitude Era back when i was in my mums arms well thats what my dad said,......i was also scared of masked Kane he used to scare the sh*t out of me

[kane93100]

the best raw intro ever

[numberonebrat95249]

This song is on my iPod. How I miss the attitude era! And I miss the days of Trish and Lita and when the Divas didn't have idiots as champion!

[dx09girl]

the real deal,babe!!!:)

[TehQuestion75]

RAW these days could definitely use MOAR SEX

[zfqkku]

best intro of RAW

[liquadition123]

This was back when divas could smash each other into bits. DAMN I MISS THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[MandyDeadite]

omg memories

[gcorking12]

Fuck man this was the best intro ever

[TheHillsy01]

@MiniGoofyGoober You do realise that 2002 is not the attitude era...?

[jviveros2]

when the brands split :s

[JFMcoretildeath]

Best WWE eras: Attitude (1998-1999) and Invasion (2001) period.

[kefkasakura]

@JFMcoretildeath God.

Attitude = March 30th, 1998 (the day after Wrestlemania) to April 1st 2001 ( Wrestlemania X-Seven)

Invasion = suckage.

[musicmakespeace]

@kefkasakura i think the invasion is quite ok imo. u know... its very good additional storyline. sadly for me, thats the last best storyline :(

[musicmakespeace]

i still watch raw nowadays... i know im weird but i always clicked this opening before i continuing on watching raw now

[SkaterKliff1991]

Damn i miss this!

[Tyshawngibson123]

This theme and this era is alright but not as good as the Attitude Eraa dn Pre Attitude Era's flow.

[ZenMaster93]

Great opening song - bring back those times 

[loslakers530]

welcome to THE INVASION ERA.....!!!!!!!!

[ZenMaster93]

damn i remember this intro again...

[slava0137]

Theres alot of things that is good about this theme one of them its showng every one and not foucesing on one person ohou oho..(cena)

[StupidTeddybear]

I remeber when i as about 4 in 1998 and now im 17, good old day. watching raw was like an event. it was something special back then. when stone cold would drive out with a big ass beer trunk and spray everyone or when dx was in its prime. hahahha fuckin good time.

[SoulReaperHikuru]

o.o i just realized that tommy dreamer is in this intro

[MiniGoofyGoober]

Im done replying to anymore of the replies I get because almost all of you who try to insult me lack the ability to even type up a proper sentence. You reply to me and I will delete it without even reading it. I believe there is a sign here that says DON'T FEED THE TROLLS. Buh bye! :)

[GenericAuthenticity]

This was the last good intro theme Raw used.

[driven5fly]

@MiniGoofyGoober

youre 12 years old? then ur a faggit

[MiniGoofyGoober]

@driven5fly LOL! Im not going to take your comment seriously due to the fact that you spelled "faggot" and "you're" wrong and that you've been called gay and a fag on your channel. Being 12 makes me a faggot? Well Im 13 now and 2nd, I didn't make myself. I can't choose when to be born, therefore being 12 or 13 isn't my problem. Besides, IM YOUNG! Im not worrying about you, Im enjoying my life! I suggest you never judge someone due to thier age, get off the computer, and learn proper spelling. :)

[GenericAuthenticity]

@MiniGoofyGoober Kid I have to hand it to you, that was one sophisticated comeback...way to burn him haha!

[guy2008rules]

@driven5fly, Epic Fail from you! spelled faggot wrong.

[HermioneIsAnOwl]

what's the song called and who performs it?

[Calvinf746]

@HermioneIsAnOwl The Song Is Called Across The Nation By The Union Underground

[robinp689]

the good times thumbs up if you agree

[huskiepride1206]

@robinp689 thumb whore

[BMXriot825]

This stayed as the RAW theme for a pretty long time

[go30tigers7]

I have to really fucking laugh at these kids who 'miss the attitude era' then go onto state they're 10-13, jesus kids, you weren't even born when it was going on so don't be missing something you weren't around for.

Besides, the Attitude era pales in comparison to the years of 2001-2005

[619great]

I'm 15 and this song always got my heart pumpin every time R.I.P. attitude era.

[monroeviking57]

The Eric Bishoff era!

[ItsTimeIDisappear09]

Im 19 started watching around this time period. I was always sooo fuckin excited monday nights as a kid, and this would always get my heart pumping.

[nutty4real]

im about 15 and ive been watching since 1999 and i enjoyed watching bloody fights, chair shots to the head. cena is an over rated wrestler that loves this PG shit. i would love to see a return of tv 14 WWE

[danydaplaya]

I'm 15, and when I got into WWE it was around.. when Edge & Cena were fueding

Kurt Angle & Taker fued... it was before Royal Rumble...

which was in 06.. i went all the way to 2008 and stopped watching it. Started watching it again in 2010 (October) My first reaction was... what the fuck is Cena still here for...

Who the fuck is Nexus? Randy's a good guy?!? Where's Kurt An.. oh yea TNA

No more HBK... fucking A right? HHH injured? Taker too?!? Disappointments every corner *Sigh*

[mpack47]

I'm 33, and this theme still gets me going!

[bitsterbot]

song

[Animalincage1]

@bitsterbot ''Across The Nation'' by Union Underground

[HACKaBONE]

I'm 9 and uhhh.. hmm er.. yeah. Go Booker T. Where is that thug these days anyways?

[pokened]

@HACKaBONE smackdown,he returned at the royal rumble!!!

[ThomasHankyPank]

Im 12 but I say RIP Attitude and Ruthless Aggression, FUCK PG!!!

[10litai]

best raw theme period

[xlixity]

It's not Thorn in your Eye, but hey, it's better than burn it to the ground.

[Omgthatjustinkidrofl]

i couldnt wait to watch raw during these days i hated to see the WWE logo at 11:05 because that ment i had to wait another week to watch RAW, now i turn it off halfway threw
