Brock Lesnar Tops Forbes List of Highest-Paid WWE Superstars, And It’s Not Even Close

“The Beast” makes bank.

Brock Lesnar, the former WWE star turned UFC heavyweight champion who returned the WWE, is the highest-paid wrestler in Vince McMahon’s organization, according to Forbes. 

John Cena made headlines at Wrestlemania with his in-ring proposal to Nikki Bella, but Lesnar, who wrecked Goldberg in their rematch, still reigns supreme when it comes to raking in mountains of cash.
