WWE 'Very Aware' Of Def Rebel Criticism

WWE's internal music group, Def Rebel, who have produced the company's music since 2019, have been heavily criticised in recent months to the point the group has become a meme on social media. Many fans have made spoof mixes of Def Rebel-produced entrance music where the song opens with a wrestler's catchphrase and then transitions to generic-sounding music.

Particular criticism was aimed at the group during the Royal Rumble with many speculating that even Seth Rollins, who was sitting in a box for the show, couldn't recognise which wrestler was heading to the ring from their entrance music.

According to Sean Ross Sapp of Fightful Select, WWE are "very aware" of the criticism aimed at Def Rebel. WWE did shoot down the idea that Douglas J. Davis was still involved with Def Rebel, though. Davis made headlines after footage of him accusing an Uber driver of antisemitism went viral.

After being asked if WWE were aware of the criticism directed at Def Rebel, Sean Ross Sapp said: "They're very aware of them. There was today the thing with Douglas J. Davis and the Uber driver. I reached out to WWE about him because he was originally a part of Def Rebel and they were quick to say, 'No, he's not anymore and he hasn't been for years.'" 

In addition to wrestlers' entrance music, Def Rebel produced the theme songs for both Friday Night SmackDown and Monday Night Raw.
