Two interesting stories regarding WWE talent and contracts have emerged this week. First, a report from Fightful sheds light on the evolving nature of superstar pay. While downside guarantees remain, some wrestlers are now signing “all-encompassing deals” that bundle merchandise and other revenue streams into a single package. In some cases, talent reportedly receive just one check per year covering their entire compensation, a move designed to simplify payouts as the company expands globally.
Meanwhile, former NXT Women’s Champion Shayna Baszler is looking to return to her stomping grounds in a new capacity. Following the resignation of GM Ava, Robert Stone has taken over as interim manager, but Baszler thinks the brand needs some muscle. Responding to a fan on Twitter, Baszler wrote, “@WWENXT needs a good enforcer…”
Baszler’s contract expired in July 2025, but she has remained involved with the company as a guest coach and producer. Could “The Queen of Spades” be the one to bring order to the chaos of NXT?
