That was ridiculous. Completely ego.
Also, anyone comparing WWE to UFC. stahp. WWE promotes the stars garnering buzz. They give them a piece of merchandise. They also allow them to side hustle as long as it’s not with a competitor (Brock the exception. Long Island Z, New Day, Rousey, etc).
CM Punk was making more with WWE than with Zuffa.
Obviously, that performer lifestyle isn’t for everyone and it can take a toll on your body. You’re always on the road. And your storyline or push is up to the whim of a crazy old man. Nor do they respect older performers to wisely use them. The old rage less is more.
But...if you get to the company. You’re going to be compensated.
Zuffa/UFC. No. Johnny New Guy is skruggling. And with the new PPV and Reebok deal + lack of promo. It’s the company against you.
