Here is the link. I really dig it and it has a great beat. Do you know who is the composer and the name of the tune?

Definitely "O Fortuna" from "Carmina Burana" by Carl Orff. The words are appropriate for professional wrestling too -- the original Latin and an English translation can be seen at:

They start:

O Fortune,
like the moon
you are changeable,
ever waxing
and waning;
hateful life
first oppresses
and then soothes
as fancy takes it;
poverty
and power
it melts them like ice.

definitely O Fortuna by Carl Orff
its a great fave of my family (mum, dad and me, anyway!)
the best recordings you can get of it (in my experience) is when its been recorded live by a symphony orchestra or something.
my favourite recording is the Classic Spectacular as performed in the Rod Laver Arena (i think) by the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra and Antony Inglis conducting
