Former WWE and WCW talent Chuck Palumbo recently responded on his twitter account
“2 fans asked me how much a wrestler makes over at TNA today, when I told them the “average mid carder”is makin less than 500 a match…no hotels …..they couldn’t believe it.. That’s before taxes and expenses and paying your own health insurance…. They were… like holyshit…we better stay in school.. I said “good idea.” That’s not a knock on the boys….I respect their passion….the wrestling companies take advantage of their passion!”
" any company outside of wrestling would love to have workers with the desire work ethic and passion of a wrestler.. The ones that do ....care about their employees and give them benefits etc..bonuses too"
"ask ANY pro wrestler if my statements r true.. "
