Top 10 WWE earners of 2017 ( paychecks revealed )
https://www.yahoo.com/news/top-earne...100014258.html

The list is

10) Orton
9) Seth Rollins
8) Undertaker
7) Shane McMahon
6) AJ Styles
5) Dean Ambrose
4) Roman Reigns
3) Triple H
2) John Cena
1) Brock


I'm curious how the pay is decided. For instance, i'm a little surprised Ambrose is at 5, but maybe he earned more because he had a championship run? But if that's the case, where is Owens? And what does Jericho make? I'm not shocked that Brock is number 1, i am shocked that he makes 4 million more than Cena.

Who do you think should be the top earners, and what do you think this list might look like for 2018?

It dont matter who did what to who at this point. The fact is, we went to war. And now there aint no going back. It's what war is you know? Once you're in it, you're in it. If it's a lie, then we fight on that lie, but we gotta fight!

Didn't Ambrose work the most dates/matches of anyone on the roster this last year? Don't know if that'd earn him a bump?

I imagine Shane and HHH will be mainstays on the top 10. I'm guessing Undertaker will fall off in 2018. I have to believe AJ will be top 3 by 2018.

I also wonder where The New Day stands. And how that paycheck is even divided up.

So they just get large paychecks in one lump sum at the end of the year?

Dean has a right to call people part timers.

Dean should repay all that money he stole from the company. He's terrible.

Merch sales and card positioning are usually the two biggest factors. Ambrose is pretty high mainly because of those two reasons and him being their top workhorse for the past year or so in terms of shows done.

Baring a sudden serious injury or setback, Balor is a lock to be on that list next year. They've invested a lot of money in him and supposedly he's Triple H's handpick star like how Reigns is with Vince.

If they weren't draws, they wouldn't get paid so much for it for working part time. They are, so they do. If Dean could ever get to that point, he'd do the same in a heartbeat.
