Rumors Of The Day (February 20th, 2018)
– On a recent edition of The Locker Room podcast, wrestler: Bin ‘The Hacker’ Hamin shared some insight into how much money a midcard talent in WWE makes weekly. Here is what he said (h/t to Brad Shepard of Bodyslam.net):
“I heard that – this is 2010-ish, right. Guys were making maybe six grand a week with TV and house shows. Mid-card guys that I know, ex-OVW talent. Now I heard that number’s down to maybe three grand, $3,200 a week. So just look in that six-year range, maybe 2010, 2012, 50% pay reduction plus house shows are down so any bonuses along that way.”
– According to Bet Wrestling, Alexa Bliss (-295) is currently favored to retain her Title in the Women’s Elimination Chamber.
– Unsurprisingly, Roman Reigns (-670) is the heavy favorite to win the Men’s Chamber match.
– WWE UK star Wolfgang has been pulled from an independent show in March due to “WWE commitments”. This was announced by Pro Wrestling Elite. Will be interesting to see what that ends up being for.
