Roman Reigns has been absent from WWE television after his defeat at the hands of Cody Rhodes at WrestleMania 40. While he still isn’t back on WWE television, it appears a pro wrestling veteran claimed Reigns will receive a substantial pay raise that will make his salary surpass even Brock Lesnar.
In case you didn’t know, Brock Lesnar is reportedly the highest-paid WWE Superstar, with an annual salary of $12 million. Meanwhile, Roman Reigns is also among the top earners, with a reported annual income of $5 million.
While speaking on the Straight Talk with The Boss podcast, wrestling veteran Magnum T.A. claimed that he had heard Roman Reigns would receive a significant salary boost upon his return from hiatus.
The 65-year-old claimed that the former Undisputed WWE Universal Champion would become the highest-paid wrestler in the company’s history, surpassing even Brock Lesnar’s salary.
“I heard Roman is gonna have the highest salary of any employee in history when he comes back that his deal was gonna be bigger than Brock’s and Brock’s was $12 million.”
We have also reported Brock Lesnar’s WWE return status during his hiatus, as it still might be a while before he returns to WWE television. Regardless, we’ll have to wait and see whether there is any truth to Reigns’ receiving a salary bump upon his WWE return.
