10 Wealthiest current and former WWE Superstars

#5 Hulk Hogan ($25 Million)

After winning a lawsuit against Gawker, Hogan’s net worth will explode sooner rather than later

A case can be made that none of the people on this list (or the list itself for that matter) would be here without Hulk Hogan and what he did in the 80’s and 90’s for himself and pro wrestling. Hogan’s first appearance in Hollywood was huge for him and the WWE, as he portrayed “Thunderlips” in Rocky III.

From then on, Hogan made quite a name for himself in Hollywood, with starring roles in Mr Nanny and Thunder In Paradise.

For the next decade or so, Hogan spent his time being one of the highest paid Superstars in pro-wrestling history, while still making appearances in Hollywood. After his wrestling career was over, Hogan continued to be an ambassador for WWE and also starred in a reality-TV show based around him and his family.

Now, some people reading this will question his net worth considering the lawsuit he had against Gawker, in which he was awarded $115 million for defamation, loss of privacy, and emotional pain. However, The Hulkster is yet to receive the money and it will probably be a while before he sees a penny from the lawsuit.
