The go-to song choice for many was the theme song for WWE legend "Stone Cold" Steve Austin, composed by Jim Johnston. Loads of Twitter users added the "rough and tough" instrumental to Biden's grand entrance, shattering glass sound effect and all.

Many others also used Ultimate Warrior's WWE theme, which Johnston also composed. It was a fitting choice, being as Warrior, whose real name is James Brian Hellwig, used to sprint to the ring as it played.

Shawty Lo's 2007 hip-hop hit "Dey Know" was one of the most unlikely options, but it also turned out to be one of the most popular. The triumphant horn sounds at the start set the mood for a triumphant entrance.

YG's 2016 rap song "FDT," which stands for "F— Donald Trump," was a protest song against Trump's initial presidential run and it has also been heavily played by Biden supporters in the wake of victory. Dubbing over Biden entrance was funny to many, being as they could not imagine the president-elect actually embracing the explicit track himself.

Bill Conti's "Gonna Fly Now," best known as the theme song from the 1976 Sylvester Stallone film Rocky. This user chose the track due to its Philadelphia ties; a fitting choice because Biden clinched the presidency due to mail-in votes sent by the city's voters.

This user chose Rich the Kid's "Plug Walk," a popular hip-hop track from 2018. It was also used in quite a few memes at the time, so it was another premier choice for the Twitter trend.
