Jericho's 1st Theme clearly used on DVD for the first time

[Rudo]

So I'm watching The Raw 20th anniversary DVD and when they mention Jericho as the most matches they CLEARLY use his first debut theme and, for the times I'm counting, this is the first time they've gone out and used it ever.
Now the weird thing is that its sounds too much like an edit we have, the one with the long intro and you can clearly hear the same cut before going into the main song.
I'd post a recording but I'm on my phone. Maybe you guys can really compare them if you have the DVD (it's about 25 minutes in).

Here's the recording you were talking about.

my theory is that the reason we've never had a release of this in any form, is because the only version they have is sub-standard quality. it's even bad on the DVD. for them to release the track, it would need re-mastering

[BeDmAn]

I highly doubt that they don't have this in excellent quality... The edit is just badly made.

It was used in the WM 2000 video game (without quotes in intro) and unfortunately N64 had bad audio quality.

It was also used to promote the Raw 1000th episode :

They have it... they just don't release it. I still have hope for a new Anthology album with this theme in it near the time of Wrestlemania XXX. I can't believe they will not release something special for the 30th anniversary of WM. They were supposed to do so for Wrestlemania 25...

They used a shitty fan made edit they got off YouTube to put on the DVD.

Yea right, next you'll tell me Yukes/WWE put a Ibukimasta remaster on a video game.

[thebib62]

I remember someone saying that for the version of Nation's theme used in WWE '13 last year!

Neomic e-mailed Jim and told him about the DVD fan edit and the Mankind remake being in the video game. He said he wasn't made aware of it and he would look into it.

[BeDmAn]

Why doesn't Neomic ask him if they are working on a new compilations (Anthology) album?

[Steveo]

I dunno. Probably the same reason I or anyone else who has his e-mail doesn't?

[AJUniverse]

He's told me they were making an Anthnology 2, but than again he told few others that I believe and I'm guessing he was talking about that WWE Music Comp. that was posted to iTunes with Volume 1-5.

Maybe someone can ask him again without being "too insistent" ? Only for info, so maybe we can have an inside on an upcoming project

I know they are working on a WcW Music Anthology along with Jimmy Hart... he keeps saying news are coming soon since last year...

[PaddyDragon23]

They will never make another Anthology, there's no point to it, all popular themes are out there. But people somehow expect a 3 disc set with everything unreleased on it.

I disagree. Don't forget that WWE Music Vol. 9 was supposed to be a compilation album featuring material from the past 25 years, to commemorate WrestleMania's 25th anniversary. Sadly, it was cancelled at the last minute.

They have enough music material to do it! A bunch of old themes that were released on tapes deserves a proper CD/CDQ release now.

Now that they use iTunes as a platform to release themes, they could release everything they want.

So I think there's still hope since Wrestlemania's 30th anniversary is coming soon and also that a Music DVD will be released in march.

From the cut it has and the crowd noise sounding exactly as that live crowd I'd say it's the same audio from the show.

[TEOL]

It sounds to me like they still had the theme in good quality but the intro they don't have anymore so they tacked it on the clear theme tune that they do still have you can tell because it becomes clean after the shit quality intro.

Courtesey of musicmike813 : On the WWE Network, they dubbed Jericho's WCW theme with his first WWF "Millenium" Theme.
