Triple H gets paid 2 million dollars a year, and can use the Company Jet? Man, what a perk for being married to a McMahon! |

I've seen this list posted several times on several different forums. I'm hesitant to believe the numbers. If no source is listed (and I've never seen one anytime this is posted) then how do you know someone didn't make them up? Granted, they look about right, but anyone could make up decent looking numbers if they follow the news sites. |

If they are real, where do I sign for the WWE. I could do with that. Just imagine what money like that could do for you? |

Here are a few problems I see with the numbers: If this list was made during the early part of the year, then why is Nitro making more than Mercury? They were a tag team at the time, so there was no reason for one guy to make more than the other. Also, why was Holly making more being inactive than other guys made while being active? I doubt Holly's downside guarantee would be more than other guys would make by working house shows. Didn't Mark Henry sign a 10 million dollar, 10 year contract back in 1996? If that's the case, then his downside guarantee would have been much higher than 300,000 during the time of this list, since his contract didn't expire until recently this year. |

For this answer, at least, just because they're a team, doesn't mean that they started that way. Nitro was first signed in, i'm assuming, 2004, at a different time, than Mercury. I'm i'm correct, of you're in OVW, it is still a WWE contract, besides the fact both of them must have signed on at different times, and weren't a team, yet. |

The Man. Any Questions?
|
I'm wondering why Triple H needs access to the company jet. With his money, he has his own jet, doesn't he? |

Wow, Look at all the numbers they're getting. That's a lot of dough for being a wrestler. Can the NBA top that? Now I'm envious.

Rey doesn't get paid much compared to other wrestlers in the company. |

Of course the NBA tops that. I didn't see any wrestlers making $15 Million a year, did you? Of course, the wrestlers don't have nearly as many illegitimate kids to feed, paternity suits to settle out of court, or lawyers to hire to beat lawsuits, so I guess it balances out. |

I see no reason to believe it without a source. I don't even need to point out any inconsistencies within it, if a document like this doesn't have a source then it's a load of crap. |

Further evidence this is full of crap. How the hell would Stratus have been making more than Guerrero? |
