Happened around 2 years ago when the WWE started to slash bonuses for wrestlers with that year's Mania bonus I think and tours being hit the most. Only a few wrestlers were not affected due to their deals and their status.

The breaking point ended up being a Brazil tour that did really well and yet the WWE still lowered the payouts to the wrestlers. A few either went public or were feeding the dirtsheets leading to the WWE punishing some of them (either no tv time or punishment squashes with Santino being one who got punished).

Shortly after the Brazil tour, the WWE raised the payouts to please the wrestlers and prevent it from becoming an even more serious problem.
