The Wonder Years & Becky Lynch Collab

After over a decade using “Celtic Invasion” as her entrance theme, Becky Lynch returned to WWE TV with a brand-new soundtrack — one that immediately caught fans off guard. The high-energy, emotionally-charged track had people scrambling to identify it, only to find it wasn’t available on streaming services. That’s because it’s not a commercial release — it’s an original song, written specifically for Becky by Philadelphia pop punk band The Wonder Years.

Rather than using WWE’s in-house production team Def Rebel, who currently handle most of the company’s entrance themes, Becky’s new music comes from an outside source — and fans have noticed. For the past few years, Def Rebel’s work has drawn criticism from some corners of the wrestling community, with fans describing much of their output as lacking the unique identity and lasting impact of older themes. Becky’s new track stands out for that very reason: it sounds different, and it feels tailored to her.

The Wonder Years have been part of the punk and alternative scene since the mid-2000s, known for emotionally raw lyrics, high-energy live shows, and a deep connection with their fanbase. Albums like The Greatest Generation and No Closer to Heaven helped define the band’s sound — blending introspection with intensity. They’ve also made no secret of their wrestling fandom, frequently dropping references into their lyrics and social media. Becky’s husband, Seth Rollins, has long been a fan of the band, making the connection feel all the more natural.

This isn’t the first time WWE has worked with outside artists — past collaborations include Code Orange, Motionless in White, and Poppy — but Becky’s new theme marks one of the few recent examples where an artist created something completely original for a wrestler.

Her old theme, “Celtic Invasion,” had become synonymous with her rise in WWE — a brass-heavy, Celtic-inspired instrumental that underscored her transition from underdog to top star. Replacing it suggests a shift, possibly linked to her current on-screen direction, but also reflects a broader openness to change in how entrance music is approached.

Whether this becomes part of a larger trend or remains a one-off experiment, the collaboration has already sparked discussion across both wrestling and music communities — and for once, fans seem to agree: this one works.
