Rumor Roundup: Major Return Planned For Survivor Series? Samoa Joe To Return To NXT? More

3) Braun Strowman’s Asking Price

Mike Johnson of PWinsider has provided some additional details about Braun Strowman’s asking price for independent promotors. This comes after Braun recently came out and denied ever speaking to anyone about any bookings.

Here is what Johnson wrote:

PWInsider.com stands by its reporting from earlier this week.  Strowman’s manager Nick Antocelli has quoted “20-25K” for a three hour appearance to multiple promoters that have reached out with their interest in Strowman appearing for them.  Antocelli is also asking for first class airfare, two nights of hotel plus all meals and ground transportation covered.

My Take:

  • Braun seems to know his worth and I don’t blame him. He doesn’t need the money so someone will need to make it worth his while to book him.

2) WWE Pushing To Hire More Producers

According to Mike Johnson of PWInsider, WWE is looking to hire more producers. This will be for when the company goes back on the road for live shows.

Here is what Johnson wrote:

With the company ramping up a return to live events as they prepare to go back on tour next month, there has been a push to add more producers back in order to alleviate the workload across the board.

My Take:

  • This is great news. Hopefully a lot of guys and girls get their jobs back.
