WWE superstars train for years, work across the globe and put their bodies on the line, all in the name of entertainment.
But just how much do WWE talents get paid to get into the ring?
Wrestling's highest-calibre athletes take home a significant base wage, but also benefit from a percentage of merchandise sales.
The lifestyle is not all that bad either for the top tier talents, as they are flown on first class flights, stay in five-star hotels and use luxury rental cars - often at the expense of the company.
