Bobby Roode Reveals How Close He Was To NOT Using The ‘GLORIOUS’ Theme In WWE

Bobby Roode was recently interviewed by ESPN. During the interview, he revealed some of the back story about his entrance theme: ‘Glorious’. As fans know, this has become a giant hit for him and he has one of the most beloved entrances in the company today.

It turns out  that he was very close to not actually using the song at all. A conversation with Triple H changed everything.

Here is what Roode said:

“It wasn’t me at all, actually. I had a different song picked out. I was about to debut on NXT, and about a week or two later, as I waited for some paperwork to be finished up, I had a conversation with Triple H about the character and what I wanted to do. He came up to me that TV taping and said, ‘Hey I’ve got this song that we have, and I think it kind of fits your character a little better, so why don’t you have a listen?’

Roode continued:

“So it could’ve went one of two ways: It could’ve really sucked or it could’ve been really great. And it’s been better than great — glorious, I guess you could say. The song itself was a blessing. It’s been a gift, because in this business, everyone talks about the entrance, but without the song, there is no entrance.”

Triple H saves the day again.

Also, it turns out the ‘Glorious’ song was actually first made for Shinsuke Nakamura but he turned it down. Here is the story.
