We had a thread in the WWE section specifically for current superstar themes, so I got interested in making an all purpose one.
WWE wise, Randy Savage's WWF theme is up there for me, along with Cena's Time Is Now, DX's Break It Down, HHH's King of Kings, Bayley's Turn It Up, and Ted Dibiase Sr.'s All About The Money. Booker T's Rap Sheet always pumps me up somewhat, as does Edge's Metalingus.
So far as Japanese promotions, I love Misawa's "Spartan X", Jun Akiyama's "Shadow Explosion", Jushin Liger's, Stan Hansen's theme and Aja Kong's.
NJPW currently has some great entrance music, like for Okada, Tomohiro Ishii and Kenny Omega's "Devil's Sky" which sounds like perfect final boss music. Minoru Suzuki's "Kaze Ni Nare" is epic.
Also, Surfer Sting's "Turbo Charged". Man Called Sting is so bad it's hilarious.

Taiyo Kea's old theme, "Hold Out Sun" is one that if I hear it, it'll be in my head for hours.
EVIL, Naito, Miyahara, Sekimoto, Suwama, Kojima, Misawa, Nagata, Tenzan, Ishii, Makabe, and Honma also have/had really catchy themes.

For whatever reason, the WrestleMania X theme came to mind first. So silly, so cheesy, so, so damn catchy. I hum it all the time.
Next was Steinerized, which I don't think of often, but if it came on at random, I'd rock out for sure. Same for the Nasty Boys or Man Called Sting. Sure, they all sucked compared to real music, but the super literal 90s WCW themes all had a hilarious charm to them.
Can't go wrong with Pomp and Circumstance, and Nakamura's current theme is an all-timer, I think. Oh, and evil, sad Mankind, I liked that one a lot. And f*** it, Dude Love, too.

Jim Johnston has made about 50% or my favourite songs. He deserves a HoF induction badly.

Kona Crush's theme....that guitar squeal followed by the riffs, just plain badass.
Second for me would be Vance Archer's ECW theme....just an incredible drum solo that WORKED for him.

moyase moyase ikari wo moyase hashire hashire ashita e hashire ikari no honoo ga ten wo tsukiyaburu haikyo no naka kara tachiagare RAIGAA I freaked the hell out when I resubscribed to NJPW World in February so I could finally see WrestleKingdom and saw that they finally got the rights to have that song. One of the biggest disappointments I had when I first subscribed was that his theme was dubbed over. On topic, Shibata's theme has been an earworm for me for a while now.
