When I picked this up, I knew there would be some good tracks and some bad ones. And boy was I right. The tracks that I liked was Jeff Hardy, Kofi Kingston, the ECW theme, Shelton Benjamin, and Mr. Kennedy. However the tracks I was wondering of how in the hell did these make it were Mark Henry(didn't he just have a theme on Wreckless Intent), Jillian, and sadly the Y2J theme. Overall, I would pick this up to add to my collection. One theme I would have put on here is Umaga's.

First of all, I don't like the inexpensive cardboard CD folder.

As for the songs, I was surprised by how enjoyable Kofi's song is. The ECW theme is clearly the best song on the CD, but I have often questioned why they chose this theme for ECW.

I would have rather had Jeff Hardy's original Hardy Boyz theme and Chris Jericho's current theme, similar to what is found on WWE The Music 4 and Anthology. I also like Kennedy's previous version more than the version on this CD.

This CD features so-so covers of McMahon's theme, Shelton's theme, Jericho's theme, and Kennedy's theme, which now lacks Kennedy's "MR KENNEDY!!! voicover.

Overall, it is an ok CD. I think they should have waited a little longer and given us better, more original themes with less cover songs.

i gotta say this is one of the greatest album releases by WWE. its like a mini rock and album.still think this album is better than vol 9

Great CD, I really like the songs "No More Words" by EndeverafteR, "SOS" by Collie Buddz, "No Chance In Hell" by Theory of a Deadman, and "Don't Question My Heart" by Saliva with Brent Smith from Shinedown. I also liked "Ain't No Make Believe", and "Turn Up The Trouble" by Airbourne.

i love anything about the wwe. but this cd sucked big time. i'm hoping wwe the music volume 9 is 100 percent better then this last one was. the sound was low and just didnt sound like a wwe theme cd. i wouldnt tell no one to buy this cd.

A good wwe cd but the sound quality was bad on some songs. Manly track 5 enetitled in the middle of it now. But I personally love track No chance in hell by theory of a deadman, The ECW theme by slavia featuring Brent Smith of Shinedown. And of course turn up the trouble by AIRBourne.

Well i think people on here are expecting next year's Grammy award winning album. Here is the deal about the CD from a wrestling fan to another, The CD is good. Most of the themes are currently being used by the wrestlers. These wrestlers are: Jeff hardy, Kofi, Beth Phoenix, Mark Henry, Hawkins & Ryder, ECW brand, Jesse & Festus, Candice Michelle, Shelton Benjamin, Mr.Kennedy and John Morrison. So if you dig their actual entrance themes well thats exactly what you are getting.The few songs that are not "covers" but newly recorded versions are cool too. Y2J's theme on this CD is slower but rockin' and pretty heavy. Theory Of A Dead man's version of Vince's theme is awesome too. As far the WWE holding off to give us better themes, which superstar out there has a theme we don't already have? The CD is great for WWE fans of the music.

Move along to the Fozzy All That Remains Reloaded CD/DVD featuring Chris Jericho on vocals...amazing CD and incredible vocals from Y2J!
All That Remains Reloaded (W/Dvd)

I've enjoyed this compilation from WWE more than any that they've released since The Music, Volume 3. There's a solid tracklist that was only complemented by the trio of bonus songs found in the Wal-Mart edition - I like them all, but find that the songs for ECW, Shelton Benjamin, Kofi Kingston and Jeff Hardy are my favorites. I was happy to put my money down for this CD, but I wasn't happy about the pauses prior to the song intros or the low volume the CD was mastered at. But all in all, this is a solid release for WWE fans. And for the fan on here looking for Ashley's current theme, it can be found on The Music, Volume 7 (which was an album exclusively released to iTunes.)

Overall, this compilation is just OK. Including the 3 bonus tracks on the Wal-Mart version, only two songs really stood out for me: Theory of a Deadman's version of No Chance In Hell and the ECW Theme. The rest of the songs I could live without and really can't say that I care for them. Although Biscuits & Gravy for Jesse & Festus is sort of funny, I guess. - I don't know, and I hope not, but it sounds like Jim Johnston might be on the edge of losing "it".
