I made themes for my money-mark fed, set my production on music to Licensed, since most songs I've given are Cult or Known but not #1 with a Bullet type stuff:

 

Aldous Blackfriar:  Dimmu Borgir - "Progenies Of The Great Apocalypse" (instrumental)"
Mitchell Aldred:    Vivaldi's "Four Seasons-Winter'"
Ernest Youngman:    AC/DC - "Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap"
Luke Pope:          Grey Area - "Before Me"
Mutant:             The Doors - "People Are Strange" / Radiohead - "Exit Music (For A Film)"  / Cyndi Lauper - "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun"   / SUNN O)) - "Frost (C)" - all depending on what mood he's in, as face themes.  When Mutant is a heel, in my universe, he comes out to the ring to one song, and one song alone:  Skinless "The Optimist"
Sayeed Ali:         Lil Boosie -  "We Outchea" (Gang Green ft. Onyx "I'll Murder You" is an alternate, more suited to Ali being from the City)

Papa Swoll:      Redveil -  "Captain" for real, he's the captain for real.  
 El Serpiente:   Mariachi Chavez - "El Cascabel"

Remmy Honeyman:     Crowbar - "Walk With Knowledge Wisely"
Ricky Turner:       Captain Beefheart - "Hard Working Man"
Washi Heat:         At The Gates - "Flames Of The End" (though this theme is transferable to almost any heel)
El Ladron:          Nothing, silence, just as a good thief would like.


Rich and Famous:    The Flying Lizards - "Money"
The Boys (fka The Puerto Rican Boys, but, idk, I really don't like that name, Boriqua/Boriken Boys or something would be better, so for now, they're fightin soups):    Arcángel & Bad Bunny - "Tu No Vive Asi"

Here are some of mine -

Aaron Andrews – Motorhead Ace of Spades

Wolf Hawkins w/ Syndicate – The Shangri-Las Leader of the Pack

Wolf Hawkins solo – Judas Priest Lone Wolf

Chris Flynn – Post Molone, Ozzy Osbourne and Travis Scott Take What You Want

Killer Shark – Jaws Theme

Doc Hammond – Kiss Calling Doctor Love

Sammy Bach – Bach Tochata and Fugue in D Minor

T-Bone Bright – T-Bone Walker Mean Old World

Enygma – Murray Head - One Night in Bangkok (ending at about 45 seconds right before the lyrics start)

The Rat Pack (SWF) - Sammie Davis Jr - Bang Bang

Scythe - Blue Oyster Cult - Don't Fear the Reaper

Bradley Blaze - Chris LeDoux - Dallas Days and Fort Worth Nights

Lenny Brown - 40 Acre Mule - Brown Eyed Handsome Man

Valiant - Bonnie Tyler - Holding Out For A Hero

And because I am basic as hell, Rocky Golden will always get Survivor - Eye of the Tiger

I like to head cannon Funakoshi comes out to "The Hit" by Richard Myhill like the 1980's puro star he is.

Bunrakuken Torii uses "ALSATIA" by Galneryus.

Those were the only two BCG guys I gave themes to in my head.

I never put any thought into theme songs, Does it help the creativity?

On Themes I liked having a song play when I opened TEW 2016. I changed the song to Shadow World from Persona 4 and I was using the Vice City Skin from Basic Thuganomics. I got me excited to play and I need a skin like that again.

It depends, I guess if you are writing a diary or a match recap write up style to catalog the games, this would be a good thing to have to add psychology and mood to a character, for example:  a cerebral assassin grappler coming out to some darker scale classical music, or a monster coming out to just horrifying feedback and screams, or track's that definitely capture a character (Tommy Cornell "Breaking The Law" by Priest might be the best example I can think of---though the suggestion of Shook Ones Pt II for Sayeed Ali is another perfect one, too...).

With the new angle writing system adding a theme can add depth or just be a place holder [as shown below*] (excuse the misspelling of Reverie):

 

Segment7.thumb.png.24027a1ed94233cbf5fff11f1de0a8e7.png

 

it just adds a bit of depth to the game and how each moment can be presented, at least for me when I write these cards.  (for an example, I have Mutant as a face... he is completely out there, and is feuding with Sayeed Ali, who is from a different generation who gets in his feelings because of Mutant, so Mutant will come out to the ring for his match with Sayeed Ali while Ben E King's "Love Me, Love Me" plays, however, after he was screwed over, he came out to a chaotic drone metal track, disheveled, and absolutely Steinered a job guy... It can add some character to the gameplay.

Does anybody have any songs that they think would be perfect theme songs for CornellVerse workers?

It's a fictional universe with no real life actors, sports teams, musicians, etc etc etc. 

They all have theme music we've never heard because it does not exist. Nicky Champion's theme song is some indy Native band. Rich Money's theme is some wanna be rappers from Connecticut...

I've been wanting to use the time I play with this game to improve a skill, so I'm going to write out cards for a while, just to work on grammarratical things like spelling errors ya know keeping things in cannon or punctuation errors. they, really burst my bubble...;   

 

As I was thinking of "how" to do this, I realized, I would watch a wrestling show that used this section of this song as its opening theme.  It could be horrible, I'd still watch.  This is going to be my TV show's intro theme, and just video of people getting dumped on their heads and potatoed.
