Vince McMahon - $1,184,500 for 2014
Triple H - $1,550,000 for VP of live events and talent, plus in ring salary of $2,120,000 for 2014
The Rock - $3,500,000 plus 7% bonus for high merchandise sales
John Cena - $2,750,000 plus 7% high merchandise sales and a share of PPV revenue
Brock Lesnar - $2,000,000 plus 3.25% high merchandise sales, free travel and PPV revenue share
Undertaker - $2,250,000 plus 7% merchandise sales, travel & accomodation, PPV revenue share if a main event

Compare those selected few to the Divas though.

Nikki Bella - $112,500 plus first class travel
AJ - $104,300
Paige - $65,500
