3. George Barrios - $700,000 Salary, With Bonus Incentives Total $1,378,197

Chief Strategy and Financial Officer George Barrios is arguably the most important WWE business person with exception of Vince McMahon. He is the numbers guy of the WWE, the bean counter, a potential candidate to replace Vince McMahon in the number 1 position. You might recognise him as one of the front and centre faces of the WWE Network launch, or any of the other major corporate projects he has been involved in since joining WWE's executive team in 2008. Barrios gets compensated with a $700,000 salary and totals $1,378,197 after bonus incentives. His future really depends on the success of the WWE Network, with the Wrestling Observer reporting that his further success in WWE could hinge on the Network being a positive or a bust. One thing for certain, with his attractive financial earnings, Barrios will be hoping to lead the way in WWE for some time to come.
