Bengaluru, September 30: Brock Lesnar is the biggest box office present in the world of sports entertainment and it's no wonder why WWE used to issue the highest paycheck during his entire tenure. The deal apparently ended at WrestleMania 36 and he's no more a WWE Superstar, as per the recent reports.
All Elite Wrestling has appeared to be the biggest rival to the WWE brand and there are talks that they could bid to rope in the Beast Incarnate under their banner. WWE is well aware of the fact and they tried to bring him back on TV in time for SummerSlam 2020 but a deal seems far-fetched.
The latest reports from The Dirty Sheets states that the two parties may reach a deal around WrestleMania 37, but for that to happen Brock Lesnar's salary has to be $3 million, per year.
This is the same amount as his last full-time contract with the WWE and he doesn't intend to decrease his payday no matter what happens. On that note, the source ran down (via Wwfoldschool.com) the lucrative contracts that the 8-time world Champion has so far signed with the company.
- Lesnar was then under contract for an “image rights” deal, where WWE paid him $500,000, per year to use his image on T-Shirts, Video Games, and other merchandise. This deal remained intact up to WrestleMania to 36.
- As for his appearances on RAW, SmackDown, & House Shows, he got paid $100,000, per appearance while his salary was $500,000 for a Pay-Per-View appearance. In the case of Saudi Arabia events, he was handed $1 million, per match.
