Backstage Notes on WWE Not Paying NXT Stars a Percentage of the Gate for Events - PWPIX.net

Regarding pay for WWE NXT talents, The Wrestling Observer Newsletter recently noted that talents under developmental deals have not been getting bonuses for working the bigger events outside of Florida. The NXT stars who worked the NXT event during WrestleMania weekend in California were not paid a percentage of the gate. No word yet on if they were paid for NXT “Takeover: Brooklyn” this past weekend but that event likely had a gate well over $500,000.

It was noted that the internal reasoning for not paying the NXT talents has been NXT and developmental as a whole are big money losers, the talents are on guaranteed money deals and overall the shows are already losing money without having to pay the talents a percentage of the gate. NXT talents working in Florida have no real road expenses and the feeling is that they are already being paid to learn through their deals.


However, when a NXT talent is brought on the road to WWE’s main roster shows, they do have their road expenses covered and they get paid. Contracted main roster talents do not have their road expenses covered.

Enzo and Cass' pop was :whoo: Good match too.

And people are worried about Sara Lee's chances if Eva Marie is supposed to be the face of the Diva division? That match against Carmella was Tough Enough finals bad. :russ:

Bull Dempsey looking exactly the same. 'I think he lost some weight.' No, the fukk he didn't. :dead:

Fatal 4-Way ending was all fukked up. Reading some of these comments on other sites is hilarious though.

Becky SHOULD have kicked out though. If for some reason her vision was impaired, she can feel the vibrations in the ring to know if someone's coming to break up a pin or not.

'Feel the vibrations in the ring'. These neckbeards are fukking insane! :mjlol:

Great show, like I said in the Takeover thread they need to eventually do more shows outside of Full Sail

The 8-man tag was dope Enzo & Cass had that crowd going nuts and SMH at them saying Gable is the most decorated amateur the 'E has ever had :stopitslime: Kurt Angle disagrees. I never liked Mojo but pairing him up with Ryder was a smart move, Brainbusters 2015 are a good tag team as are Not Team Angle.

Eva still has plenty of work to do but she's not as bad as the crowd would have you think IMO, Carmella doing the moonwalk was :mjlol: and she's not that much better.

I don't like that they're throwing random guys together as teams for this Dusty Memorial tourney, they should've just had former/current NXT teams and current main roster teams compete.

I guess Bull-Fit is working cause he did look a bit

The Fatal 4 Way was kind of a clusterfukk although I'm glad Emma won. Charles and Becky are sore losers.

Sounds like they were just showing the crowd the original finish.

At least the camera placement on the corner splash looked and sounded like it could've knocked the wind out of Becky. It was a little weird, but I thought was going to look worse than it actually came off.
