Lio Rush






For some reference, Lio stated his current pay isn't enough to properly support his family due to the amount being eaten away from travel expenses and unpaid merch fees. Supposedly WWE offered him a new deal worth $300k but he turned it down and asked for $600k to cover his financial concerns and also partially due to ego reasons.

That second bit is a bit worrisome since that now a possible trend with him in WWE. First was Kevin Owens having to explain to Vince the racial undertones of calling a black guy a "handler" when used as an insult by a white guy.
