Cena's, Triple H's, and Orton's probably all count, as does The Undertaker's ("Ain't No Grave").

Oh, and easily the best one:

 

[L-U-D]

Teenage Mutant Hero (in the UK) Turtles had the best one of these!

Does Billy Gunn count? And Shawn Michaels?

Did the legend that is Jim Johnston write those two as well?

 

[Xander45]

I'm surprised you didn't put up Shawn Michaels theme as well.

 

[The Originator]

God yes, of course they count, those two are some of the best ever. They were both composed by Jim Johnston.

Billy Gunn had one of the most epic expository themes of all time. The lyrics are pure gold.

I guess you could throw in The Big Show's before he turned into a teddy bear? Hulk Hogan's Real American? Taker's Bad Ass theme, and of course Million Dollar Man's theme.

It can't get anymore expository than the Steiner brothers theme ENJOY http://http://m.youtube.com/index?desktop_uri=%2F&gl=AU#/watch?xl=xl_blazer&v=n3L9Mtsaf6U

Actually, everything from WCW Slam Jam Vol. 1 works. "The Man Called Sting", "The Master of the DDT", "Simply Ravishing", and "Johnny B. Badd" are some examples.

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh the 90s. I'm glad I was born in 1990 and raised in that decade

 

[acracker]

"The Man called Sting"

 

[sXe Gooner]

Miz's theme sucks. The only thing that fits the character is the first 2 seconds because that's his catchphrase.

I Came to Play? it sounds so childish. Reminds me of when NWO would say "WCW, where the big plays? We don't play here. We fight". The word "play" in wrestling is just stupid to me.

CM Punk's theme sounds like a theme where it would be someone that comes down to the ring ala ultimate Warrior. Someone that shows intensity and electricity and dare I say, OVERLY HYPER. not someone that comes out and looks at his watch and slowly, calmly walks to the ring.

Bella Twins-You can look but you can't touch. Honestly, that could apply to ANY good looking woman. There is no reference in the song it's for Twins. It's a good song for a woman but it's not song specific like Honky Tonk Man, where it can only be applied to one wrestler.

Drew McIntyre-Another terrible theme that doesn't fit the character. Another non character specific song. Can be applied to any bad guy wrestler.

Original OP had great examples.

It's saddening how awesome and character specific WWE used to be compared to today, where 1 out of 10 themes actually fit the character. Then again, WWE doesn't actually have many characters to begin with. So that's another thread for another day.

 

[Adramelech]

Another one of my favorites. This one is actually pretty catchy.

And of course, probably the funniest expository theme of all time:

 

[Unsexed]

Nexus' theme was up until SummerSlam.

 

[jomofo]

Nexus current one is a bit expository. And how could we have all forgot about KUNG FU NAKI

 

[Annihilus]

Wouldn't Hogan's old theme count, i.e. "I am a real american", that song pretty much encompassed his generic, pandering, feel-good, masturbatorily patriotic character in the 80's.
