10 Mind-Blowing Wrestler Salaries WWE Couldn’t Afford
3. Hulk Hogan – Salary Expectations $10 Million And Creative Control With Reduced Schedule
When Hulk Hogan went to WCW in 1994, Vince McMahon actually had the contractual right to match whatever offer WCW made and keep his big star. The thing was, Ted Turner was offering $300,000 per a match, 25 percent of PPV revenue above the WCW average, 25 percent of house show revenue for the few non-televised dates Hogan would work, and 65 percent of all merchandise revenue. McMahon couldn’t afford to offer that, so Hogan went south.
