Dusty Rhodes wore polka dots "All the way to the pay window" as he said numerous times.
I get some people dig that starving artist life, but most people work for the money. Not saying either way is wrong, but look at the Colons. They could easily go bust their ass working in Puerto Rico like Carlito, or they can get paid for minimal effort or wear and tear on their bodies.
Primo has been around 10 years, traveling the world, making if I had to estimate probably on average $200,000 a year. Yeah he isn't killing it, but that is still a lot of money, and considering how little he actually wrestles, it's not like he can't easily keep going another 10 years.
WWE no longer even has mass yearly firings, and it's because WWE is financially the best they have ever been, and that is only going to get that much better come October when their new TV deals actually start paying out.
Point is, WWE has some really good job security these days. That along with a steady paycheck isn't that bad of a deal, no matter how underutilized they may feel.
