– With Jim Johnston, longtime music composer for WWE, no longer with the company, there are discussions underway for WWE to remake all of his music and completely overhaul the division. Kane’s music has already been re-done and it remains to be seen which other superstars will have their music overhauled as well.
– Johnston was reportedly said to be the highest paid non-executive in WWE and with CFO$ being brought in about five years ago, Johnston was already being phased out to the point where many in the company knew he was going to be faded out once his contract expired.
