Commercial In the United States,
WWE Originals reached number 12 on the
Billboard 200.
Critical Music website AllMusic awarded
WWE Originals three out of five stars. Reviewer Johnny Loftus criticised tracks such as
Stacy Keibler's "Why Can't We Just Dance?" and
Kurt Angle's "I Don't Suck (Really)", identifying them as proof of some performers' musical inability. However, Loftus praised the "amusing" skits performed by
Stone Cold Steve Austin, as well as a number of tracks including "I Just Want You" by
Trish Stratus and "Put a Little A** on It" by
Rikishi. John Powell of Slam! Wrestling was more critical, describing the compositions on the album as "generic, cookie-cutter productions without any soul, character or style" and criticising the performances in general. In particular, Powell criticised songs such as
The Dudley Boyz' "We've Had Enough",
Trish Stratus' "I Just Want You",
Lita's "When I Get You Alone" and Stacy Keibler's "Why Can't We Just Dance?"; however, he did praise the performances of
John Cena and
Lilian Garcia. Michael Paoletta of
Billboard magazine described
WWE Originals as "mixed, very mixed". Paoletta noted a dominance of hip hop music on the album, claiming that the pop and rock songs were of higher quality, particularly those performed by divas Keibler, Stratus and Lita. ==Track listing==
