Line in the Sand is a song composed by Jim Johnston and performed by Motörhead, as the theme music for a now defunct World Wrestling Entertainment stable Evolution. Evolution was led by Triple H, the team members were Randy Orton, Batista, and Ric Flair. While the other three members of Evolution used their own theme songs in singles' action, Randy Orton used "Line In The Sand" regularly as his theme. The song was used as the stable's theme from July 2003 to early 2005.
Origins of "Line In The Sand" come from the band, Tool. Jim Johnston composed Evolution's original theme song as heard in WWE RAW 2 for the Xbox, which debuted on June 16, 2003. This song was clearly influenced by the Tool song, "Maynard's Dick", and it would later be the base for which "Line In The Sand" would be modeled after.
There are many different versions of the song, but the one that was used most often is the one featured on the WWE ThemeAddict: The Music, Vol. 6 album.
Like Triple H's song King of Kings, the song's lyrics do not refer to anything related to wrestling at all.
