And yet none of them are going to get paid for this right?

It seems to me that the wrestlers are getting dicked over. NXT pretends to be "developmental" but I've never seen a developmental company tour the way they do w/the wrestlers not seeing a dime. They just held a Takeover show at Barclays and no one got a bonus. But that's ok b/c they get a bed to sleep on and per diem right?

Thing is that the NXT wrestlers don't get make as much money as main roster guys. NXT is becoming as big as mainstream WWE, yet the wrestlers who were talented enough to carry NXT to that point are being paid developmental money. They're getting their travel paid for, but their base pay is much lower than that of a main roster guy.

How do you think someone like Sami Zayn feels when he sees that a main roster undercard guy who is generally presented as being "beneath" him takes home a bigger paycheck than he does.

Do "double duty" guys like Ryder and Adam Rose get their travel paid when they're booked for an NXT show?

I don't think they do, since they technically aren't part of the "NXT Roster" so much as they are "guys who work on NXT", and main roster guys have been making appearances on NXT TV ever since Full Sail NXT has been around.
