How Much Money Are WWE Developmental Talents Paid?

New WWE talents that are signed to developmental contracts are paid on average $50,000 to $150,000 per year, according to the new WWE feature in Sports Business Journal. The average pay for developmental talents is around $80,000 per year.
It was also noted that talent salaries can climb into the seven figures if they make it to the top of the company on RAW or SmackDown.
Triple H spoke with SBJ and said talents are taught technique, timing, camera awareness and presence, and how to avoid injury once signed.(More like the 'WWE Way" of how they do it).
"It's the emotional storytelling," Triple H said. "We are way more akin to 'Rocky' the movie than boxing, from the shooting and production of it." (That's laughable since the 'storytelling' of the main roster is pathetic at best, and all promos are written for the performers. HHH needs to stop lying like this).
