#3 Roman Reigns - $5million
Roman Reigns has been an integral part of WWE programming ever since he made his debut at Survivor Series 2012 as a Shield member with Seth Rollins and Dean Ambrose.

Since then, he has won four World Championships, main-evented WrestleMania four years in a row and become the ninth Grand Slam Champion in recent WWE history.
Following The Shield’s initial split in 2014, it was clear that WWE’s decision-makers saw “The Big Dog” as their next top Superstar once John Cena slowed down his full-time in-ring career and began concentrating on his acting commitments.
This is presumably why, at a time when Cena spent more time away from WWE, Reigns picked up statement-making victories over three legends in 2016-17 – Triple H, The Undertaker and Cena – to establish himself as the company’s main Superstar.
With a reported salary of $5million per year, no other full-time performer earns as much as Reigns.
