WWE Superstars' 2019 salaries revealed: How much do The Undertaker, John Cena & Brock Lesnar reportedly earn?

#12 Annual base salary: $650,000-$900,000

Like the previous category, two long-serving Superstars who have not featured much on television in the last year – Matt Hardy and Sin Cara – reportedly earn a higher amount than many of their co-workers.

Big Show and Kane have been two of WWE’s most featured Superstars over the last two decades. Despite their lack of in-ring action in recent years, it is no surprise that their loyalty is rewarded with a large annual base salary.

Elsewhere, some people might be surprised to see Rusev and Samoa Joe in this category. Both men have had plenty of success in WWE, but it is somewhat surprising that they feature so much higher than Superstars including Charlotte Flair and Shinsuke Nakamura.

Of course, the standout name near the top of these high-earners is Jinder Mahal. The former 3MB member, who held the WWE Championship for over five months in 2017, signed a new contract in 2019, so expect to see him on your screens for many years to come.

• Matt Hardy $650,000
• Sin Cara $700,000
• Rusev $800,000
• Samoa Joe $800,000
• Big Show $850,000
• Jinder Mahal $900,000
• Kane $900,000

To put these figures into context, two senior members of behind-the-scenes staff in WWE – George Barrios (Financial and Strategic Officer) and Kevin Dunn (Producer) – are reported to earn $800,000 each per year.
