Danko Jones Gets Ready to Rumble with WWE
As Danko Jones prepare to release their new album Fire Music on February 10 through New Damage Records, its been confirmed that the band’s “Gonna Be a Fight Tonight” track has been named the official theme song of World Wrestling Entertainment’s (WWE) Royal Rumble pay-per-view. The event takes place on January 25 at Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia, PA.
The Royal Rumble is arguably one WWE’s most popular events, as the actual rumble consists of a wide array of the company’s wrestlers duking it out at one time, in one ring, until one man proves to be the victor. If you like spandex, muscles, sweat, and fake tans, you’ll dig this.
In other Danko Jones news, the band is hitting the road in the coming months with The Lazys and Say Yes. You can see those dates below, after enjoying a video for “Gonna Be a Fight Tonight.”
