Coming in at the 27 spot is a man who’s entrance theme is absolutely glorious. We are talking about none other than former NXT Champion Bobby Roode. While the man had some great entrances in IMPACT Wrestling earlier on in his career (Beer Money almost made this list) he didn’t quite reach top-30 status until truly finding himself in the black and gold brand of NXT.
Roode came into NXT and made an immediate impact (no pun intended) wrestling his first televised match for the brand on TakeOver: Brooklyn II, giving the entire pro wrestling world a taste of just what to expect from the Glorious One under the WWE Umbrella.
There is no question that Roode had some of the greatest and most memorable entrances in the history of NXT TakeOver, with arguably the most popular entrance theme to ever come out of NXT, “Glorious Domination.” Many thought Roode would be destined for greatness once he was called up to the main roster in August of 2017.
For some reason, however, despite having a run with the United States and Raw Tag Team Championships, Roode has not found the same success on the main roster that he once did in NXT. Roode’s entrance, however, remains as glorious as ever, even being immortalized in a Snickers commercial earlier this year, so we think he’s doing okay.
