Just about edging Kevin Nash out of the Top 5 for our list is one of only two non-WWE professional wrestlers on this list. Sting, who was as loyal to the WCW as The Undertaker was to the WWE, was justly rewarded for his loyalty.
The Stinger was paid a mammoth $6.05 million between 1996 and 2000 to ensure that money would never be the reason he would betray WCW for their arch rivals. And, it certainly worked as Sting never joined up with the WWE during this phase of his career.
