In response to "Cena makes a few mil a year (merchandise pays), while Bayley or Charlotte probably makes about half a mil overall" by Will Hunting

According to Forbes, Cena got $8 million from the WWE last year. The highest paid woman was Nikki Bella at $310.

Flair was #4 at $230k, Banks was tied for #8 with $180k, and the other two were unlisted.

The other women in the top three were Natalya (which is much deserved) at $300k and Paige at $250k (which isn't).

Does that include merchandise? -- nm - Will Hunting Aug 8, 13:40 8
- It can't. And I think even in the $310, that's like a base after which they make additional for PPV appearances, etc. -- nm - pmb Aug 8, 13:41 3
  - As Pete referenced, PPV is no longer a huge moneymaker for wrestlers. - David Aug 8, 13:44 2
    - was that Punk or Orton who made a big deal about that? - Tim Aug 8, 13:46 1
      - Probably Ryback. - Will Hunting Aug 8, 13:48
- No, so I would expect actual salaries to be about triple and probably enough to spike Bayley into the top 5. -- nm - David Aug 8, 13:41 3
  - I didn't realize Cena was still making that much...I don't get why he even bothers anymore given - Will Hunting Aug 8, 13:42 2
    - He doesn't even have a match for SummerSlam at the moment, which is a week and a half away (though they might fix that tonight). -- nm - Tim Aug 8, 13:43 1 1
      - After Nakamura, he may not want one. -- nm - David Aug 8, 13:45
