Answer 2

SexyBeyo1 is on point with their yearly salaries but not their checks for one match. Big names agree to contracts similarly to typical professional athletes; they don't really collect money per-match. In some cases they may get a bonus for particular pay-per-view events such as Wrestlemania. Generally all of the wrestlers make a pecentage of the house shows' (non-televised events) ticket and merchandise sales with the larger percentages going to the bigger names; obviously the quantity of cash will vary on the total amount made. Usually if wrestlers find themselves in any hot water disciplinary action by management may include stripping that wrestler of collecting their portion of the house show. However, from what I understand WWE has or will be doing away with wrestlers earning cash for house shows. The typical wrestlers in the various low-budget organizations that are around the country and probably most "no-name" jobbers (usually the same people) are lucky to rake in enough cash for gas, food, and logging. Generally their pay range could be as little as 50 up to maybe 200 dollars a show but that might even be pushing it.

Answer 3

Sexybeyo is a little out dated because Eddie Guerreo is dead. So some of the wrestlers are now in different leagues now but I'm sure their salaries our pretty close to what she has up but needs to be updated

Answer 4

That depends on the promotion i have wresteled for upstart promotions only piad maybe 50 dollars but the WWe is under contract they dont get paid by the indivual match
