WWE Announced New Fines For Talents, WWE Talents Upset Over Royalty Checks

WWE-Logo

 

WWE announced a fining system that didn’t go over well with the talents. WWE is enforcing a dress code that talents must dress professionally when anywhere in public. Failure to do so will result in a fine. They are also said to be issuing fines if the talents are even just one minute late to the arenas.

It’s reported that a lot of the talents are unhappy over money right now. WWE mailed out quarterly royalty checks for the video games this past week & the people who usually receive around $70,000 for the first quarter received around $11,700 for this years first quarter. The second quarter checks were just mailed out, some believed part of the difference would be made up but it wasn’t. Most of the top level guys got $1,555 in those checks.
