Punk speaks about the record-business he hears the company is doing.
There is a chat with CM Punk that was uploaded to The Ringer Wrestling Show’s podcast feed. As the conversation progressed, Punk began to express his thoughts about how he’ll always feel that WWE talents deserve more money.
He added that he feels that way present day based on the way it is promoted that the company is doing record-business.
I have done things that I never dreamed possible. I also need to kind of broach the subject of the reason why I think I was so obsessed with the main event of WrestleMania is pay scale and there isn’t a single person that can criticize me that can explain a professional wrestling pay scale. So, if I’m in the main event, I get paid more money. That does not exist anymore. Everybody’s on flat salary and we get paid stupid money for what we do and yes, I do think we all should get paid more based on things I see the company doing and shouting from the rooftops of how much money TKO’s making and all this other stuff. But, I’m 46. I don’t need money at this point in my life. Biggie was right, mo money, mo problems.
Punk is going to be headlining his first WrestleMania on night one of WrestleMania 41. He’ll be in a Triple Threat with Roman Reigns and Seth Rollins.
