I'm surprised to see Big Show worth so much.
And damn, you can't help feeling a little sorry for guys like Hogan and Flair... Actually not really. 5 million is still more money than I'll likely ever see in my lifetime.

It still amazes me how much Hogan got screwed over in the divorce settlement.

I can't believe Chyna made the list. I assumed the porn career was partly because she needed money (or maybe it helped get her on the list).
Surprised Show was so high up the list. I figured he was loaded, but not that loaded.
No Sheamus yet?
Rock and Austin make sense.
Hogan got royally screwed in that divorce. Like, incredibly screwed.

Are lists like that even accurate? I have no idea how they get those numbers.

Are lists like that even accurate? I have no idea how they get those numbers. I don't know about accuracy, but they explain the process in the first paragraph. CelebrityNetworth.com has published this article listing the richest professional wrestlers in the world, with figures acquired from all publicly available information including salaries, real estate holdings, divorces, record sales, royalties and endorsements. The estimated net worths come from a formula that takes out taxes, manager’s fees, agents' fees, and lifestyle. The list states: |

I'd have guessed JBL, Warrior and Sting would be on that list.

Wow cheers for the link, really interesting stuff!
Sad face on those rankings and the information.
Surprised to see Del Rio make the list, but I assume most of the money is from his Mexico work?
And where the hell is Kane? The dude has had a 20 year long career, so I'm sure he must have put some money away at some point? Unless they just couldn't get his information (or where too scared to ask)
Also damn Big Show, if you got so much why carry on hurting your body, just retire.

I'm surprised to see Big Show worth so much.. He made most of that money in 95-97. |

I'd have guessed JBL, Warrior and Sting would be on that list. JBL's on there a little ways down: $9 million apparently. The one that strikes me as the most surprising is Undertaker only having $16 million. Did he lose a lot of money to his ex-wives or something? Does Mark Calaway secretly party crazy hard? The guy has been a huge star for WWE for 22~ years - where'd the money go? And yeah, Hulk Hogan was majorly dicked over. |

I don't believe this list at all tbh. I don't either. Most of the info isn't readily available and they admit to guessing on a lot as well. This is worse than newz but at least more honest. |

Rock at #1 does not surprise me at all.
He pretty much buys and sells homes worth 10mil seemingly every month , plus his divorce had to be pretty damn clean as she is his agent/manager.
Plus who knows how much he has made on his return to wwe plus his obvious movie roles which he always has roles by the dozen...and thats not even taking into account the money he made in the AE.
Austin being in 2nd is also no surprise , he doesn't seem like the type to be any sort of a real lavish spender and his straight to dvd movies while not Rock level bring him many pretty pennies.

I love how we've been hearing about how "broke" Linda left Hulk after the divorce, and then I see that he's got 5 million dollars. I'd LOVE to be Hogan "broke".

How is Kane not on that list? Hasn't he been full-time longer than anybody else in the company?

im surprised that Jericho is up pretty high Fozzy and various endorsements/appearances probably boost the numbers by a fair sum. |
