he takes a lower downside...he probably rakes on his merch royalties.

Also, lol where the fuck is it justified that Khali is being paid 1m a year?

^Because he's a LARGE MAN.

No wonder guys like McIntyre and Riley are happy with shitty booking.

Yet they still have to pay for travel/accommodations and even when they aren't used they have to travel in case the bookers decide to use them that night.

BTW, wtf on Henry having a 10 year contract?

Unless that is one signed, like 8 years ago or something, it would be pretty weird to sign someone "that old" for such a long contract.

They need "Ratings" Henry to save their ass in the future when there's a ratings drought.

These men and women really need a union. Some of these numbers (even if inaccurate, since it's probably not far off from being accurate) are just ridiculously flawed.

I guess Big Show wasent lying about that iron clad contract just look at his pay and the extras he gets

Absofuckingotally agree, they need a union not only for fair pay but also for safe working conditions. Not only the WWE but wrestlers in general.

Nonsense. They need a union like a fish needs a bicycle.

**The-Rock-Says** · 10-04-2012, 12:44 PM

The lower card guys get paid well enough. They aren't all getting Punk and Cena's money. They are the top guys, the others aren't and so get paid less. It's like that in every business and sports. Messi is Barca's highest paid player because he's their top guy. Same with Ronaldo, Rooney, Gerrard, ETC ETC.

There will never be a union unless the top guys agree to join and Vince looks after his top guys very well for that to never happen. Ever.

Kofi is the midcard king, sells merch and gets paid less than Swagger? GTFO!
