Production theme song
Although WWE is known to pick mainstream music for their PPV theme songs, No Mercy sometimes features its own WWE produced theme song entitled (appropriately), "No Mercy". This song was composed by WWE's music producer, Jim Johnston. The song debuted at No Mercy 2002 and was featured in full on that event's DVD. The song was later remixed and used again for No Mercy 2004, also being featured on the event's DVD. The lyrics vary slightly between the two versions. The song is also being used for No Mercy 2006.
