WWE superstars always remain under the spotlight due to their employer being the biggest pro-wrestling promotion of the world. Months of gruesome TV schedule and traveling keep them away from family for the better part of a calendar year. But at the end of the day, money is the only thing that can make up all of those.
This is where a billionaire like Vince McMahon comes into play who does not back down from paying huge paychecks to the talents. In this article, we have sorted out the top 5 richest WWE wrestlers of the current generation that rule the yard of the biggest pro-wrestling banner. These are the names who take away home seven figures while most of the rest of roster members get a six-figure salary.

Average base salary $3.5 Million (Forbes)
The successor of Shawn Michaels was never going to be in the list of top 5 richest WWE wrestlers unless he’d sign with WWE back in 2016.

His dedication and loyalty to the WWE brand make him one of three most bankable superstars on the current WWE roster, today. This incremented his salary as well as his net worth that increased for more than $2-3 million in the past couple of years.
