The video game company Midway reportedly paid Buffer $100 million to license to the phrase in perpetuity for the video game "Ready To Rumble". Not bad for a wanna-be actor turned boxing announcer. In total, Buffer has earned $400 million from trademark licensing alone during his career.

How much does Michael Buffer make to say "Let's get ready to rumble"? Depending on the match, Buffer typically earns between $25,000 and $100,000 every time he utters those five famous words. On a handful of extremely rare occasions, Buffer has been paid $1 million.

Some forums are saying 100K-125K per WCW appearance

No wonder Midway is gone :mjlol:
