10 Highest-Paid WWE Wrestlers Of 2021
3. Randy Orton - $4.5 Million
If Randy Orton had a dollar for every voice he heard in that barmy little noggin... well, actually it appears he does, as it goes.
An impressive 20-year stint as one of WWE's most effective and marketable talents has seen The Viper go from rising Legend Killer/youngest World Champion in the company's history to the most experienced performer dishing out venom that 2021 has to offer. And on top of picking up accolades like Most WWE PPV and Raw Matches Ever, Orton's unprecedented run has now resulted in him taking home a tasty $4.5 million per annum as a reward for his unwavering loyalty and penchant for popping crowds out of nowhere.
In a typically prolific last 12-months, the minted veteran has seen off a Fiend at the Show of Shows before reluctantly joining forces with Riddle to forge one of the most over units in WWE today as RK-Bro ultimately came away with the Raw Tag Team Championships at SummerSlam.
Orton's ability to somehow keep himself relatively fresh after two decades of exposure acts as simply another reminder as to why he takes home the big bucks year after lucrative year.
