When you properly look at her contributions to the package, the beautiful Miss. Elizabeth didn't actually do much other than stand around looking pretty whilst cheering on Randy. She'd get involved occasionally, but those moments were few and far between. That beauty was enough for the WWF, and they paid Liz accordingly.

Prichard doesn't like discussing money on his podcast. He dodges those questions whenever they come up, but he did let everyone in on a little secret. Elizabeth's pay was locked to Randy's during their peak run, and they were paid salary as a couple instead of individually. This meant Liz earned more than other managers like Mr. Fuji.

Though Bruce didn't reveal numbers, he did also say that Liz didn't make as much money as Bobby Heenan. He was one of the only exceptions. Miss. Elizabeth was paid the most amongst all the other managers, which could be seen as surprising because she didn't take bumps.
