  • How about thinking of this: WHO THE FUCK CARES?

  • He may do a lot of covers but you have to admit, he's damn good at them.

  • @hammett89 i've heard it, it's fuckin awful

  • Atleast now days he seems to be making more originals that copies, probably a money thing

  • yet, wwe used bombshell so he is recreating property in a way

  • This guy makes horrible remixes. Although the only one that i really liked was Christians theme. I mean this guy has nothing on Jim Johnston. He only keeps remixing old themes. Im not saying that Jim has ever remixed an original song, but this guy is not even trying to do something original. Abyss had a cool song i'll give him credit for that but everything else just sounds lazy. Maybe TNA should let their roster pick their own music like WWE guys do while Jim just gets paid to sit.

  • ill go far as to say i think Dale is still better, jim has made some good themes, but nowadays, his themes are nothing but dull boring and generic. using the same guitar sound (if he even uses a guitar) for every single theme

  • So basically Dale is a hack, and his style is very weak.

  • You forgot AJ's first theme, its a cover of Born in the USA by Springsteen

  • @IbeCorbin I now direct you to 2:40

    "He's covered more songs, but I've omitted them from the video."

  • @TheCanvasAssassin why is it omitted? btw I'm pretty sure he's made more original themes

  • @IbeCorbin Well, that theme in specific is omitted because I hadn't heard it then lol

    Plus, if I had included all of Dale's covers, this would've been a loooooong video.

  • Jim Johnston is WAY better than Dale Oliver. All Dale Oliver does is make covers of songs, Jim Johnston is way more original.

  • so what if he covers songs? his covers are cool

  • you forgot one

    Alpha Male's theme - "Down with the sickness" by Disturbed.

  • tna needs to fire dale oliver. he is horrible. one of the big things preventing tna from getting wide appeal is its horrible music

  • I don't care if Dale Oliver makes covers or remakes or whatever... I like his Work

  • you have got to admit jim johnston does more original music than dale oliver and jimmy hart combined

  • @tinkerthecat Jimmy and Dale are basically pure covers with a few exceptions. From my recollection, Johnston has covered only a few songs and even using famous bands to remake themes (Stone Cold, Kane, RVD)

  • @tinkerthecat true he's more original with the wrestlers themes and i like how they use a band either unknown or a well known band for the themes

  • does anyone else hear the ecw theme in the white zombie song

  • Hey thats a great video can you upload more dale oliver covers?

  • You want to know why dale oliver makes so many shitty ass covers for tna? It's because he camed from a cover, according to wikipedia his band was backhawk a cover of blackhawk. It also really because it is just not in their budget to make really original awesome themes for all of their superstars. And dale oliver said that he gives wrestlers covers of theme that they used in the independents.

  • Once I really thought that AJ Styles's theme song was made by Offspring... :D

  • TBP`s theme sounds more like my own enemy by TFK

  • Actually, A.J. Styles theme is a cover/ remake of "Headstrong" by Trapt.

  • @catchitB12 nooooo its not even close.......

  • @catchitB12 nah...

  • Hey not only was "Angel on my Shoulder" based off of "Drag you Down" it was also based on "Face the Pain" by STEMM.

  • Dale Oliver has been doing this since the old WCW days...

    DDP - "Smells like Teen Spirit"

    Raven - "Come as you Are"

    Chris Jericho - "Evenflow"

    Sting - "Seek and Destroy"

    Jeff Jarrett - "Cowboy"

  • @taylorstone dale loiver wasn't in wcw that was jimmy hart..

  • Christy Hemme's theme is a cover of ''What I Like About You''.. Traci's is a cover of ''Ragdoll'' by Aerosmith & ODB's first theme is a cover of Anerblin's ''Ready Feuls''

  • Dale Oliver creates covers for TNA's Superstars, but Jim Johnston, he's really creative, becuz he makes all originals! Johnston > Oliver

  • The Beautiful People's is a mix of "Drag You Down" by Finger Eleven and "Face The Pain" by STEMM

  • dales themes are almost all better than the original

  • You forgot quite a few... Tomko used a ripoff of Vicarious by Tool. Monty Brown used a ripoff of "Down with the Sickness" by Disturbed. Daniels used a ripoff of "Disposable Teens" by Marilyn Manson. The Spin Cycle theme intro is a ripoff of "Stinkfist" by Tool. There are several more, I'm sure...

  • jim johnson though made many more original themes than dale oliver and also oliver ripped off johnsons theme for stone cold steve austin for shark boy, is there any new songs that he has done since that are original.

  • To be fair wasn't the WWE Theme for the Dudleys "Bombshell" by Powerman 5000?

  • Yupp. Which is why Dale Oliver covered it. But, it's still a ripoff.

  • Jeff Jarrett is original too..

  • A lot of the WWE themes when I used to watch were covers though. Nothing wrong with that. and ECW just used to straight up use the real themes most of the time. Sometimes they used covers.

  • all this shows me is how lazy Dale Oliver is

  • Interesting. I never thought about it, but now that I do, it makes sense. What about My World forJarrett, Marvelous Me for Hall or Champion for Hennig? What about Slay Me for Sting or the LAX or MCMG themes? By the way, When they were The Dudley Boyz in WWE, they came out to Bombshell! Funny!

  • who is dale oliver

  • The composer for TNA's music. Kinda like Jim Johnston composes WWE's music.

  • @TheCanvasAssassin Or Harry Slash for ECW, Jimmy Hart for WCW, or Kidd Russell for ROH.

  • is it me? or do alot of wrestlers you More Human than human or have a cover of it? I was watching ROH on HDnet and Necro Butchers theme was basically the same as Chris Harris's theme? i started laughing

  • the reason AJ's theme is probally the only original song TNA made is because hes truely "Phenomenal"

  • @mexicanguy43 Actually "I Am" is a remixed wrestling theme of "Headstrong" by Trapt.

  • @mexicanguy43 Actually, "I Am" is a cover of "Headstrong" by Trapt.

  • if there was a video for all the songs dale oliver ripped off it would be nearly an hour

  • Dont forget, Christopher Daniel's 1st Theme was Disposable Children by Marilyn Manson....

  • there's one theme you forgot to add, Monty Brown's "Down with the Sickness" by Disturbed

  • does this mean Cage can use My Last Breath if he goes back to the WWE?

  • Yes, but knowing WWE, they'll just give him his old theme again. If not, they'll make a theme to keep their money (they have to pay the artist to use their song).

  • if they get the rights from Evanescence, which i hope they do

  • i think jeff jarrett theme and pacman jones theme is original

  • kurt angle current theme is original

  • Correction - It is actually a cover of "Lunatic Fringe" by Red Rider. Only the lyrics are original.

  • yeah , agree; and james storm theme??

  • It's a cover of "Electric Rodeo" by Shooter Jennings.

  • abyss' theme is original. so is jeff jarrett's, sting's, eric young's, and a few others

  • no it isnt. Trademarc (Cena's cousin) took the guitar part from an oldies rock song.

  • Actually the Orginial  AMW theme was done by DAle Oliver
