A former WWE star has revealed how much money he earned during their time on the main roster.
FTR’s Dax Harwood spent eight years in WWE under the moniker of Scott Dawson. Much of his time was spent in the tag team, The Revival with his partner Cash Wheeler.
Speaking on his FTR podcast, Harwood addressed how much money he was earning during his time on WWE’s main roster. Dax said:
“If you look back in 2019, I was number one, [Wade] Barrett and Cash [Wheeler] were tied for number two as far as most matches in 2019 for WWE. So, we were on the road every single week.”
“So when you think I’ve signed this million-dollar contract or whatever, it’s not that lucrative. Our contracts were the very bottom dollar.”
“I’ll tell you mine, I don’t know about Cash’s but our first contract for the main roster was 125, 150, 175 across the three years and that was it.”
Revealing that there was opportunities to earn more than that, Dax stated:
“If I’m on the road five days a week and I’m spending breakfast, lunch, and dinner all five days a week, let’s not even talk about snacks or whatever, breakfast, lunch, and dinner five days a week on the road while my wife is at home cooking and paying for groceries for her and my daughter and then I’m paying for rental cars and then I’m paying for hotels, I’m not making as much money as you think.”
As previously reported, Dax Harwood revealed that the return of Vince McMahon to WWE may make a possible return for him more questionable.
