Alvarez on Observer Live said that this is a good bit less than they were offering guys last year to stick around (Gallows and Anderson were each making 750K before their release so that could be what he was referencing).

Congratulations on getting 400k to still be a jackass who pisses off all your coworkers, and looks more like a rapist every time you open your stupid mouth That's the crazy part; even if he wasn't facing a very credible allegation of sexual assault, there's no way a guy who has pissed off half the people he's come in contact with (with at least one flat out saying they would never work with him) has a long enough shelf life within the company to merit that kind of pay. Hell, Mr. Kennedy's WWE career was cut short because TWO major stars wanted nothing to do with him. But let's not forget that he is facing a very credible allegation of sexual assault. Can't forget that. |

400,000k PER YEAR is a 1.2 million dollar contract. For a midcard dude whose gimmick is "sexually aggressive stoner". That doesn't seem low at all. Given WWE's overall revenues and ability to pay its talent significantly better, it's very low. Seems like the standard WWE contract for an upper midcarder that hasn't changed in forever. Jericho detailed in Lion's Tale that $400k was his baseline contract when he joined WWE in 1999 but the bonus structure and royalties meant he was always able to at least double his earnings per annum. |

As mentioned, Seth but also AJ who literally said on a draft show “I don’t want to face Matt Riddle” and not in a “I’m a heel and I don’t want to face the good guy” sort of way. |

That was Seth that said that. Riddle fought AJ multiple times and actually beat him in his debut match. |
