Parts of that music have been used throughout all of Wow, since vanilla.

Bleh, I noticed that the moment I saw those trailers, as did many others. Loved Warcraft 3, and I'm glad they re-used the music.
Yeah I got that feel too.
Wrathion also seems to be the new "Medivh" in the sense that he's warning us. He showed us that vision of infernals hitting Azeroth and now in 5.3 he outright says the sky will burn again and the legion will invade.
My mind is most definately blown O.o
Reading far too much into this. They're just revisiting major memorable themes that define the tonality of the franchise. They're doing it all the time. That particular arrangement here was used multiple times in WoW, you just never happened to hear it conciously until now. It's normal, the average person has a rather primitive musical ear.
It's a very normal thing to do, be it in games or film. It doesn't have anything to do with "hinting" anything, and even less with Blizzard being "lazy" (which was, in all due respect, an unbelievably stupid comment by whoever said it).

Actually - it's not. The music inside Heart of Fear is from tbc (Auchindon and Hellfire are definitely 2 music samples I recognised in there). I think this is just that Blizzard have a big back catalogue of tracks now that they can just use for the right atmospheric theme without having to get in a composer for every 2 min cut scene.
No, just an example of laziness.
