Being friends of Wildcat Chris Harris, I know for a fact that they don't make much

[-STAT-]

Guess it pays for Triple H to be Stephanie's wife.

There are names on that list that I have never heard of that are making 6 figures a year. No surprise though. Any entertainer/athlete/etc. make ridiculous amounts of money.

True.

[Hilbily]

I think you make nearly as much as a legend of the sport. Me and my bros have alot of the Rey Mysterio mask and we where them around the boat when we have been at sea too long. You should really stik a tuna sometime with one of those mask on.

[C.Clair]

Wow looks like i need a change in career.

[Notorious]

Well, looks like that list is a little old. Also with Wildcat Chris Harris, I'm gonna venture and say he didn't earn no where close to alot of those numbers in TNA.

I stated in the original post that the list was from 2006, it was the most recent I could find. I'd love to see those numbers now though. I'd bet some of those names are making a whole lot more.

TNA doesn't do nearly as many shows as WWE and they don't travel nearly as much. They aren't as time-and-travel demanding as WWE, so yeah, I'd think they don't make anywhere near what they make in WWE.

A top-tier talent in WWE makes anywhere from a million to 2 million a year, while I'd guess that a top-tier talent in TNA makes probably $75,000 to $100,000 a year.

[Cameraman]

I would've figured that the Undertaker would've made a little more then that. He's probably been there the longest and has the better history. But then again, doesn't he just work PPV's?
