Recent rumors that Roman Reigns was asked to restructure his contract or accept a pay cut have been proven false.
The speculation started when former WWE announcer Jonathan Coachman claimed that TKO Group Holdings had approached Reigns to renegotiate his lucrative deal. However, the Wrestling Observer Newsletter disputes these claims and sheds new light on WWE’s highest earners.
Dave Meltzer’s report confirms that Reigns is not being asked to change his contract and remains the highest-paid wrestler in WWE. He wrote,
“As far as income goes, there are seven WWE performers earning well over $5 million per year, with two others potentially reaching that mark this year. Apart from The Rock, Roman Reigns is the top earner. The stories from Jonathan Coachman about TKO asking Reigns for a pay cut or contract restructuring are false.”
