WWF The Music, Volume 2 represents the World Wrestling Federation's (currently WWE) second collection of entrance themes, officially released on November 18, 1997. This album showcases the then-current wrestlers' entrance music, crafted by producer Jim Johnston and issued through Koch Records.

Hits of the World Wrestling Federation: We Gotta Wrestle

Issued internationally in early 1997, Hits of the World Wrestling Federation: We Gotta Wrestle serves as an alternate compilation that includes collectible items such as a poster and a sticker sheet. This edition excludes the entrance themes for Ken Shamrock and Dude Love found on Volume 2 but incorporates the themes for Jake "The Snake" Roberts and Faarooq, which are not present on Volume 2.

Notable distinctions feature truncated or modified versions of several tracks including Marc Mero & Sable’s "Wild Cat," Ahmed Johnson's "Pearl River Rip," and Faarooq's "We Are The Nation" with PG-13 performing rap segments. Rocky Maivia's "Destiny" is featured as his initial theme here, prior to later releases of subsequent themes. Variations in length and arrangement are evident in Flash Funk's "Can't Get Enough" and Sunny's "I Know You Want Me" compared to their Volume 2 counterparts. Additionally, Shawn Michaels' "Bad Attitude," which was utilized for promotional purposes in 1997, made its debut on this album before appearing on Volume 2.

Themes such as The Undertaker’s "Dark Side," Stone Cold Steve Austin’s "Hell Frozen Over," Bret Hart’s "You Start the Fire," Vader’s "Mastodon," Mankind’s "Ode to Freud," and Dude Love’s theme remain unchanged across both compilations.
