- Big Show: $1.5 million
He is another monster and another loyal employee to the WWE. The Giant has toned down to jobber role as a victim of overtime working in WWE over the years. Since the beginning days, Big Show earned his massive contract with the WWE in the 1990s during the “Monday Night Wars” when he jumped ship to the company from World Championship Wrestling. Though he’s not a full-time worker in WWE today, considering his time span and back-and-forth heel and face persona, it is evident that he has made it to the list.
