Blake Monroe has made an impact on WWE NXT not only through her presence but also by contributing to the creation of her entrance theme. Recently, during an appearance on The Wrestling Classic, Monroe detailed how she collaborated with WWE’s music team to develop a theme song that highlights her unique character. While WWE handled the production, Monroe was actively involved in guiding the music’s style so that it reflected her glamorous persona and stood out from others on the NXT roster.
The Collaborative Process Behind the Theme Song
Monroe described the process as a partnership, with the music team seeking her input before finalizing the track. She clarified that although she did not personally perform the vocals, her ideas were instrumental in shaping the tune. As she remarked,
“First of all, on that note, Miss Parker, I want to say how fickle those fans are because while you were off doing whatever and not on TV — can’t relate because I’m there weekly — they were chanting for me. They were thirsting after me. So just want to put that in. But as for the theme song, it was a little collaborative. I mean, look, I didn’t get in the booth and sing it myself, but they talked to me a little bit about what I wanted.”

The Inspiration Behind Monroe’s Distinctive Entrance Sound
Monroe explained that she provided the production team with musical inspirations that reflected her personality. Wanting to move away from the typical darker and aggressive style common in wrestling themes, she aimed for a sound that embodied her identity as “The Glamour.” This vision resulted in the pop-infused entrance music that fans now associate with her. Monroe elaborated, saying,
“I sent them some inspiration. It was like Ariana Grande and Sabrina. I’ve always been really heavy on ‘I am the glamour’ and that’s what makes me different. And I feel like in wrestling everybody wants to be cool and like I’m not Rhea Ripley, you know? That’s not my energy.”

She added,
“So I’m like, let me get firmly in my box and own that. So I wanted it to be pop princess. And I came up with the ‘glamorous forever,’ which is very polarizing, but I feel like it’s cool to have that hook because you know I’m coming.”

Refining the Final Track Through Feedback and Collaboration
The completion of Monroe’s theme song was not immediate; several versions were sent to her before settling on the final iteration. She requested changes such as slowing down the tempo and adding electric elements. Monroe also enlisted help from a musically inclined friend to ensure the theme hit the right notes.
“They sent me the first sample and there was a couple things I changed. Originally it was a little bit faster, so I wanted it slower. I wanted some electric in it. And then I also sent it to one of my buddies who loves music, so he helped me with it.”

Reflecting on the end result, she said,
“We got it in two or three tries, I think, and they nailed it. I didn’t know how people would feel because I think I’m under a microscope. I came in hot and a lot of people are looking, so everything is hyper-criticized. But the theme song is a hit.”

Impact of Monroe’s Theme on Her WWE NXT Identity
Blake Monroe has positioned herself as one of the most talked-about wrestlers on the NXT roster, and her entrance music plays a meaningful role in that reputation. The “glamorous forever” motif encapsulates her character’s essence and helps set her apart in a highly competitive environment. As Monroe continues to rise through WWE ranks, this pop-inspired theme is likely to remain a defining element of her wrestling persona and fan recognition.
Exploring Wrestlers’ Creative Influence Over Their Music
Monroe’s involvement in creating her theme spotlights the growing trend of performers seeking more creative control over their presentation, including musical choices. This trend raises questions about whether wrestlers should regularly contribute to or dictate the sound that introduces them to audiences, adding a personal touch to their display. Fans and commentators alike may watch with interest as Monroe’s example potentially paves the way for other wrestlers to shape their entrance music more directly.
