WWE Rebellion

Rebellion was an annual professional wrestling event held by the World Wrestling Federation (called World Wrestling Entertainment in 2002) and broadcast exclusively in the United Kingdom. In 2002, it was a SmackDown! exclusive show. It was no longer an annual event after all UK-exclusive pay-per-views ceased in 2003. Rebellion had its own theme song aptly titled "Rebellion". With the exception of the 2002 edition, The Rock was featured in the main event of all versions of the event.
