I remember reading that Sting, Booker, Cristian, and Angle were partially paid by Spike TV.
Half paid for Sting and Angle, which is why Angle does Spike TV work.
Jarrett, must make a ton but under part owner not wrestler.
What is Mick making???

Yeah, this is just salary. I'm sure everyone gets a cut of the merchandise.

Unsure how true these are, but Christy probably gets the most for seniority. Either that, or like you say, she drives a hard bargain. I'd like to drive a hard bargain with Christy Hemme. Dude, I laughed soooooooo hard. I applaud you sir.

Interesting, I'd like to see the E's and ROH's too.

So the WWE alumni are the most paid, eh?

Isn't it sad that AJ Styles makes the same amount of money as BG James? I just noticed that and now I dislike TNA a little bit more.

Wow Sting makes a lot of cash for barely doing anything. Cant fault a guy for that.

I am APPALLED at the low salary's of the X Division, especially the guys who have been there longer. They're busting their asses, going on every tour, for what? So Booker can make a half-million more than they do?
I'm beyond consolable with rage right now.

Those salaries seem fairly reasonable, actually, all things considered. Not like they have as bad of a schedule as WWE guys and thus need more for way of transportation.

Actually, I was upset that Karen Angle made 75K a year, while Miss Jackie, a veteran of WWF and WCW, who has been in this for ten years, made 60,000.
Yeah, Nash is sad. Then again, the guy made 2.9 million per year from 1996 to 2002+ NWO T-Shirt sales. he probably doesn't need the money.

The veterans always get the most money.

Nash's salary is about where it should be. Sting's salary is the one that is not where it should be.
Oh, and Booker is getting a SWEET deal. Maybe part of his deal involves PWA in some way?

just to stir the stick..... Christy Hemme is making as much as both of the Machine Guns combined But seeing as the Guns have one of the best selling T-Shirts on the roster, I'm sure they both end up making more than her. Still combined though . Also I have to laugh that according to this list I make more than half the TNA roster in my day job as a paralegal.

I thought Kurt said he was making over a million a year. kayfabe? It could be that the number listed above is his flat salary per year, without counting residuals from things like PPV bonuses, DVD and merchandise royalties, etc., unless those things are factored into the number above. But if that's not the case, then I could easily see how Kurt makes over a million per year.

Why is Roode earning so much? I thought one of the things you required to get a push apart from workrate is charisma. Roode clearly has none and rather than pushing James Storm they're letting Roode leech off of him.
Also Kurt is making more than a million a year if you combine his independant bookings ie. Japan
