This guy should’ve been a superstar. Just the entrance theme alone. The way he would sit in the corner. And he was great in the ring. I wish that in the mid to late 90s, Vince was able to see that guys with unconventional looks were still worthy of being champions.
raven was one of the coolest wrestlers of the 90s. Imagine the dark raven character booked in the kinda way foley was when he first came to wwe. the deranged tortured soul. Imagine him being booked to face the Undertaker at Wrestlemania under Raven's Rules. One can dream.....
Agreed. Seems he was custom-made for the WWF and their weekly booking style in the Attitude era, instead winding up in WCW where angles were often ended as quick as they started.
I was 12 years old & 1997 was the year of Extreme Ghostbusters. Also it was sadly the year I lived one of the greatest betrayals of my life. Something so dark I rather not say yet Extreme Ghostbusters & WCW along with my faith in Christ helped me survive.
When people think "Come As You Are" is an original. Nirvana stole the riff from Killing Joke; KJ stole the riff from Damned; Damned stole the riff from the Moody Blues; Moody Blues stole the riff from Chuck Berry; Chuck Berry stole the riff from Glen Miller; Glen Miller stole the riff from Gershwin; Gershwin stole the riff from an Irish folk song; The Irish stole the riff from a Medieval knight chant; Medieval knights stole the riff from a Hebrew prayer; The Hebrews stole the riff from Pagan priests; Pagans stole the riff from sub-Saharan aborigines; Aborigines stole the riff from Australopithecus Africanus; Australopithecus Africanus, after eating too many beans one night, created the riff...
Things like this make me love RUclips even in the times I despise it. Remembering the days when you could only find like a minute and a half (or sometimes even less than that) of this person or that person's wrestling theme, now you can virtually find any of them these days, full and sometimes clear/complete.
there was always WWF The Music, but I was never super duper into WCW, not sure if they did any official theme compilations- but RUclips is cool because it gives out hella rare ones!
I just made myself sad a little lol. I loved watching this dude so much. In highschool I even tied the shirt around my waist and wore the jacket. He'll always be in the top of my all time favorites.
Cellophane Man I did the same thing, in 12th grade, as U. When I dressed as a member of Raven's Nest, people saw me, including some of my friends & staff members, and they were like, “Alex, R U okay? U hav been acting different L8LY.” (As if I were depressed & broken).

Raven was 1 of the better and entertaining wrestlers of the 90's .He definately represented that Generation X attitude with his look and persona . In ECW he was 1 my favourites . Felt that he was misused in WCW though his feuds with Chris Benoit and DDP were brutal classics . WWF pigeonhold in their hardcore division and felt that he could have been so much more though he went to TNA and and ROH in 2003 and had great feuds with Jeff Jarrett and CM Punk and in 2005v became NWA World Champion .He was always entertaining and listening to his interviews whther worked or shoot he had a great mind for the business . Quote The Raven Nevermore . Timeless .
@@ezj9103 Not really, the song was changed enough for it to not be suitable for plagiarism. WCW really knew it's way around this kind of stuff. I do know Dave Grohl once did something with MTV that so happened to also include some WCW guys and he was absolutely confused when he heard DDP's theme.
Loved Raven in ECW and WCW. He could of been WCW champion hands down but they just never utilized him right. So sad but he was so epic I remember loving him.
I didn't notice as a kid how DDP and Raven had basically two Nirvana songs as their themes. DDP with "smells like teen spirit" and Raven with "come as you are" they had one of the best feuds in WCW.
God, I remember back in 98 when people were ripping themes from broadcasts to WAV and trying to edit them together to avoid crowd noise or commentators, people were offering to pay money for a high quality, full-length version of this. Also, I love the Agalloch vibes.
Damn, that's how we know you're a real one, haha! I remember those days too. I had near perfect versions of Rey Mysterio, Barry Windham and Konnan's original rap song on Real Player (remember that?) with no or little crowd noise that I would go and listen to nearly every day. And I'd record every episode of Raw, Nitro and Thunder waiting for a a long play of someone's theme without too much extra noise thrown in, heck I wore out tapes listening to Mike Awesome and The Hardy Boyz's themes on rewind over and over back in the day!
One thing I ironically appreciate about WCW's music branch is because the company was unwilling to pay for copyrighted material it’s as if Jimmy Hart or whoever’s job it was to create generic themes would kind of subliminally gesture to the audience like, "C'mon! You get the idea. Raven is a grunge gimmick and this tune is in the stylings of grunge." 😂
Goldberg, DDP, nWo, and Booker T/Harlem Heat. Honorable mentions: Bret Hart, Chris Benoit, Buff Bagwell, Scott Steiner, Hollywood Hogan, Wolfpac, The Total Package, and Billy Kidman.
I mean people liked it I guess but it was pretty damn generic and even he has said that this was his favorite theme and he wished he could've used it elsewhere.
As much as I agree this theme is gold, you have to admit it was smart of the WWE to have birds "Koo's" before his music started. It makes sense, after all, Raven?
Alirio Mendez Yea the kawing is cool but still WWE did the same thing to Goldberg his WCW theme was AWESOME and as farm as I know was free domain they changed it to a knockoff that didn't get me pumped at all yet they let other people keep their themes like Booker T and Scott Steiner(admittedly Steiner's theme was just sirens)
Stings WCW theme was amazing and yea its in the game and in the commercial so I have no clue why they changed it to that piece of crap theme they gave him .
Kira Lawlet His second WWE theme, the one without vocals, in my personal opinion as a Raven fan, was his best theme. It fit the guy well, and was badass. The way that it built up to a crescendo around 40 seconds in was just brilliant, it told you the guy was going to inflict some serious pain. Except they kind of underutilized him and on occasion jobbed him out too. Fuck....
To be completely honest, I've heard the songs that Ravens theme rips off, but I just don't like them. I like this one because of how somber this song sounds. Yes "Eighties" and "Come as you are", did it first, but WCW did it best, in my humble opinion.
I mean Come As You Are has a very intense feeling, Eighties has a very energetic feel so I could see why, they don't really do much justice to the riff, but then again I love all 3 songs
In 1980 The Damned released a song called "Life Goes On." In 1985 Killing Joke released the track "Eighties" which seems to have stolen a riff from The Damned. Then in 1991, The band Nirvana was sued by Killing Joke over their song "Come as You are." As KJ claimed it stole the riff used in "Eighties." And then the theme music for Raven which definitely stole it from Nirvana, but of course, if you go back and check out the songs from Killing Joke and The Damned, you can see that is a riff that always seems to be getting stolen.

(En France aussi on a kiffer la ECW) Raven était mon favori par son allure déjà atypique même si il avait le rôle du cruel dès son arriver on voyait un homme dur mais énigmatique s'asseoir dans le coin du ring puis les purs combats avec Tommy Dreamer, le Sandman ou Terry Funk (Desperado) lol ! 🙈💪prendre Steevy Richards pour un bouffon lol avec son équipe (The Floke) enfin j'adorais regarder les matchs de la ECW en anglais par contre car pas très commercial en France donc on commander les DVD
Raven was pretty much like a serial killer, psychologically tormenting everyone. He also had a lot of charisma so he seemed sympathetic when he was a stone cold psycho. Amazing portrayal. I doubt Corbin has the range to do all that.
Corbin is the guy. And actually, i think this kind of thing would suit Bray way more than his current gimmick. I really don't think what he's doing right now is working out, not his fault, just bad booking.

Most of them sucked…bad…but not this one. This one was great for the reasons you gave.
I know it's a Nirvana rip off, but God damn I love this theme. It suited Raven so much
Nirvana also ripped the song off from Killing Joke’s song, “Eighties,” so surely the remaining members didn’t care back in the day.
@@PublicGameDefender Killing Joke also took the riff from The Damned's "Life Goes On", so by the time WCW does a rendition, they're four layers deep
Wcw had a lot of rip off themes though
Unpopular opinion: It's better than "Come Out And Play" by The Offspring
At least just the beat is a rip off, rest of the guitar part is original.
Raven has a ripoff of Come as You Are. DDP has a ripoff of Teen Spirit. They're feuding over a belt. Raven attacks DDP on MTV with Dave Grohl sitting right there. Pure genius.
Chris Jericho's WCW theme always reminded me of Pearl Jam.
Shawn Evans It was a ripoff of Even Flow by Pearl Jam.
Mike Awesome also used Dive by Nirvana in ECW.

raven and foley fought a few times in ecw
Mick wrestled under Cactus Jack in ECW(and WCW), totally different character.

He looked rad as fuck. It’s funny seeing younger generations wearing 90s clothes and metal/grunge band shirts nowadays. I always think of Raven.

Awesome theme and awesome wrestler.
Come as you are 🎶
It's like a crude mash-up of "Come as You Are" and "This Love" by Pantera
This arguably may be my favorite theme of all time for any wrestler. Sooooo f*cking good and fitting for Raven!
This was PERFECT for Raven I can't stand it when WWE just wants to make sure they have their hands in every thing his WWE theme was pure dogshit.

Raven was pretty much like a serial killer, psychologically tormenting everyone. He also had a lot of charisma so he seemed sympathetic when he was a stone cold psycho. Amazing portrayal. I doubt Corbin has the range to do all that.
Maybe Dean Ambrose if he were to turn heel. He's got the whole crazy and hardcore part of Ravens gimmick down

The following contest is scheduled for 1 fall with TV-time remaining and is for the WCW United States championship of the WORLD
From the Bowery. Weighing in at 235 Ibs, he is the current WCW United States Heavyweight Champion, this is Raven
Its one of kind
Funny story, in my wwe figure universe I have freaking adam rose(remember him, didn't think so) anyway i basically have him as raven. Finishers i gave him was the end of days and the future shock.
I put him in a tag team with brian pillman. The hardcore maniacs
Edit:now single star.and pilman is ecw champ. Jobbers:metalik at dead bottom,
Truth(somewhat), elias(hard to book a guitar guy), adam rose. Almost their but saved:miro,boss man,bulldog. But except for metalik. All is lower or midcarder
