Steve Austin comments on the creation of his “Hell Frozen Over” theme song in WWE

Then when I came into WWE, as I was using the Million Dollar Dream as my finish and I was a Million Dollar Champion, they had this dreamy, slow music. I’m like, man, what the f*ck? How do you walk to the ring with any kind of swagger to this? I was lost.

Finally, they wanted to redo my music because I turned into Stone Cold Steve Austin. I just hit Jim Johnston with, ‘Hey man, I like Bulls on Parade from Rage Against the Machine.’ So whether he listened to it once, twice, or didn’t listen to it at all, he came up with what he came up with.

He put the siren in there and the glass breaking, which wasn’t part of that song. I’ve always given him just the nth amount of credit because, man, he made winners. And yeah, god dang, if that ain’t one of the best entrance songs—or top three—I don’t know what is.”
