    A lot of the $$$ depends on when guys signed. Some guys might have better merch % clauses/numbers too like New Day for example would totally trade base pay for more merch $$ bc they’re killing it in merch

    I didn't think Kofi would be making main event money, but after seeing the others on the list I figured he'd be in the $800,000 to $1 million range. Based on longevity, loyalty and having a couple of contracts under his belt, if nothing else. Sheamus is making $1 million and has been around about as long as Kofi. Kofi is about on the same level.

    Braun and Nakamura might be that low because they're still on their "rookie contracts," so to speak. They might not have had a chance to renegotiate for a raise yet. Nakamura's contract supposedly runs out soon.

    Sheamus has a few WWE title reigns and was in the main event for a couple of years. Kofi’s only had that one program with Orton.

    I agree on Braun, although I’d think Nakamura’s career in Japan would have guven him more cachet.

    HHH mentioning that he was there for Flair when he buried his son makes me cringe. Just because I know what Flair went through when his son passed away.

    Well, that makes two times that Reid Flair's death has been brought up in storyline.

    So Ronda will interfere at Fastlane, making it a no contest and leading to a three-way at Mania.

    Renee: "Why was there a camera in the locker room? That's creepy."

    We've all been asking that for years, Mrs. Ambrose.

    Nothing like some good ol' heel sports team bashing.

    That great Levi vs. Jordache ladder match in the '80s?

    If there's any justice, Braun will choke slam Colin through the Weekend Update desk Saturday night.
