Do the well-known Jobbers like 'Val Venis' get paid the most money in the WWE? If not, shouldn't they?

Question

In the WWE there are jobbers which is basically wrestlers that make other wrestler's look good and lose matches easily to them and get their a sses kicked. I was wondering if the WWE's constant jobbers like Val Venis get paid the most money. They certainyl shouldn't pay the people Val Venis is fighting the most money. Sure, in the long run, the wrestler's the jobber face's benefits from this and gets to the top of the business, but what's in it for the jobber? Humiliation, an ************, etc. I'm not sure if there's even more money paid to the person that gets to look good, but if that's the case how outrageous of the WWE. Hopefully, Val Venis, who used to be treated with more respect by the business because he's a pretty good athlete, is getting paid a lot of money for jobbing to everyone. Hopefully a lot more money than the other person who gets to look good.

Answer 1

Actually I found a site that has the incomes listed. Val is one of my favorties as well and it lists him as making $210,000 a year. This list was interesting to me. See what you think.

Answer 2

There's different tiers of payment. The jobbers, the mid-carders, and the main-eventers. And yes, I do believe the champions get paid the most (for each category...i.e. the U.S. champion gets paid the most for the mid-carders). There's a Bret Hart interview on YouTube that aired on "Off The Record" that vaguely touched on the champions thing.

Answer 3

i think they treat people like val venis and scotty too hotty like s hit. i think they should be paid more. i dont know how they get paid. but you would have to pay me a helluva lot of money to constantly get my a ss kicked by nobodies. they are only seen now when somebody new is coming in or they want to blow somebody else up.

Answer 4

Jobbers like Funaki and Val Venis make roughly $35,000-50,000/year as opposed to performers like John Cena or Mark Calloway(Undertaker) who make over $1,000,000/year.

They also get less expensive accommodations and flight tickets, but their work load is much less than everyone elses.

Answer 5

I think they all get paid equally because if the champions get paid more that wouldn't be fair and it would be the writers fault
