Actually I think the Torito one can be pretty accurate. But still, this seems like BS to me too. How would they be able to know a wrestlers salary when they don't even know their age.

This list is obviously bullshit. Theres no way in hell Bray,ambrose,harper and rollins make less then camacho and curt hawkins. No freaking way. Id say all three members of the shield make around half a mil atleast and same with bray.


Some are probably true like ziggler,del rio,punk,cena and orton. Bryan has to be making more now. Henry,show and kane are true aswell since ive read that amount several times. The announcers are probably true aswell. The divas have to be making more especially aj. Read somewhere her networth was 2,6 mil. If trish made 900 grand in her prime aj must be on atleast 500 grand

total bullshit. rock made far more than $2 million something in 2014, he made 5 times that for wrestlemania alone.

we know how much ortons makes ie $3.5 million a year or $291,666 per month in salary.

we know how much hhh makes ie $550,000 per year as base salary for his exec role, $1 million per year as a talent and and $868,639 for match payoffs/merch sales etc (all adds up to roughly between $2.5-3 million last few years)

Dave Meltzer has said John Cena's downside guarantee is 1 million dollars, so if he's getting that, this list is absolute bullshit. Obviously that doesn't mean Cena makes a million a year, he apparently makes 2-3 million a year after all added pay, but the downside guarantee, which is what this list purports to reveal, is 1 million (Triple H's is also 1 million as a performer, he has a separate salary for his corporate duties). The numbers are blatantly just vague guesses in most cases anyway.

Don't believe this dudes. Some of this may be reliable, but most of them are just bullshit. We all know for a fact that Taker still rakes in over a mill a year, and you can look at Seth Rollins' 60 grand a year and realize this is a dumb list.

The article is so poorly written and there are so many things wrong with it such as ages of performers that I call bullshit.
A winning bonus? For a pre determined match? I doubt that. I understand getting more money if you ME a PPV than if you're in the middle of the card, but getting a bonus for winning? Has to be bullshit.

Why does HHH get so much money when he only wrestles once/twice a year as a guarantee?

Surely he should get less because he isn't as active as he used to be. Understand him getting big bonuses when he does wrestle, but as he hardly wrestles anymore it seems unfair that he'd get so much guaranteed.
