Gregg Wattenberg co-wrote and produced themes over the last 6 years with CFO$, and also initially recommended them to WWE. Regardless of the professional fate of CFO$, this appears to confirm that Wattenberg's work with WWE will continue.
Well Gregg owns Arcade songs so everything goes through him.

Gregg Wattenberg alone is a Production Music artist so alone his stuff should be less looped.
In fact Wattenberg alone worked with Johnston on his later tracks I think.

You are aware that CFO$' outside WWE work isn't looped either? your post was irrelevant.
It's been 7 years since they started and it's been made clear why they loop. There entrance songs for a 40 second entrance. Why have full songs?

Yeah, why bother having effort.

It has nothing to do with "effort". It's called time scales.

Dude, it’s not dumb at all, it’s just that you got used to the comodity of having a music director that was completely dedicated to his time working at his job at that particular company, CFO$ were not directly employed to WWE, they had other projects to work in outside of the WWE, first working with Wind-Up and then working with Gregg at Arcade. They want to make a living out of music, not wrestling, even if they are fans of the product.

I'm looking forward to more Wattenberg era Jim Johnston Uncaged releases he's first one sounded better than any CFO$ cobbled together installments although for some reason he picked the shortened versions.
Yeah, I've always suspected they have been behind the brickwalling as they had access to the studio so they did the brickwalling on the readily done digitising and released the albums.
There might have been a bit of brickwalling but it was more professional on installment 9.

In response to WWE announcing that NXT will be coming to USA, Arcade Songs (the music publishing and production company that CFO$ work for) tweeted "Something tells me we’re going to be hearing a lot more @CFOSofficial" So that must mean CFO$ is still writing/producing music for WWE.
You could also take it as a passive aggressive swipe at WWE for getting rid of them, as in you'll be hearing a lot more old CFO themes on USA until WWE replaces them fully.
Exactly.

So it was just a rumor then. I'll lock this topic up.
