Nice to see that Roman is at least being compensated nicely for Creative to f*** him up repeatedly.

Remember when people say Styles was a dumbass for choosing WWE over TNA? Well those paychecks say different. Wait....what? Who the hell was saying that? Hardcore TNA fanboys. Back when Styles signed with WWE, alot of them were salty and acting like Styles was a Judas for choosing that big bad evil company from up north instead of mom and pop own TNA.

Holly crap, AJ is rolling in money. But I think it's funny how the WWE judge the worth of individuals. Just with AJ, the way they pay him, he should be booked much stronger if you have to invest that much. Brock is no way worth that investment. And Reigns really is a big negative and they pay him that amount? If Ambrose was put in that position, he would probably would do as well, would they pay him that much?

I'm confused as to what dictates these pay rates. I understand Cena. Dude sell tickets and merch better than anyone right now. But Reigns? I'm not saying he shouldn't be on the list, but I question him being paid more than Rollins. Roman doesn't move the needle, and Seth has a combination of great shirt sales and being on the cover of 2K18. Roman's overall downside must be substantially better, which is a joke.

So I guess we know why Taker's retirement didn't stick. I don't care how big a "legend" you are - that's borderline theft when you have a roster of guys on the road taking real bumps every night.

I think it's heavily bonus based, just main eventing wm is worth a fortune. Which of course means Brock will "earn" millions for stinking out this year's wm. It's interesting Orton's not on there after being a mainstay for years. Edit, oops, there he is.

Dean could have bought a mansion with that money, but had his cardboard box gold plated instead. He loves the hobo life.

Yeah, don't recall hearing he was dumb for the choice. However, yes, the paychecks are vastly different, given that with WWE they are actual, you know, paychecks that banks will give you money for. With TNA, they are TNAshop coupons that are not actually recognized by the company.

I'd argue that's better than Undertaker making over $2 million for one match. Yeah, I thought about that. And you are right. But Undertaker has earned that paycheck for almost 28 years. So I'm ok with that. Yea, Undertaker basically invested his body to sit back and be able to count check because WWE still licenses and sells the hell out of everything Undertaker. He made a nice chunk for that match though.
