WWE Superstars have achieved a lot of popularity over the last few decades because of the excellent wrestling performances from them inside the ring. Earlier, the shows used to last for one or two hours, but now WWE runs Monday night RAW for three hours.
Also, there is a new company named All Elite Wrestling (AEW) that has entered the business. Many former WWE Superstars have joined the company in order to bring about a revolution in the pro wrestling business.
While AEW is giving WWE some competition, Vince McMahon’s wrestling promotion is still the number one pro wrestling promotion on earth. And in this article now, we will look at the top three WWE Superstars with the highest salary in 2022.
3. Randy Orton – USD 4.5 million
According to a recent report, only three Superstars have a base salary of more than USD 4 million right now in WWE, and one of them is the veteran Superstar named Randy Orton. The former WWE Champion is currently a part of the tag team division along with Riddle, and they are part of the team named RK-Bro.
2. Roman Reigns – USD 5 million
Reigning WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns is one of the two Superstars with a salary of USD 5 million. The Tribal Chief of WWE has broken all modern era records with his current reign, and he is set to main event WrestleMania 38 now.
1. Brock Lesnar – USD 5 million
Both Brock Lesnar and Roman Reigns have the same salaries, but the reason why Lesnar is number one on the list is that he also earns USD 500,000 every main event appearance. Forbes had previously reported that Lesnar makes USD 10 million per year from everything combined, which is why he is the highest-paid Superstar in 2022. Fans should note that Lesnar has made a lot of appearances this year, meaning the number may even go up this year.
