John Cena has been the centerpiece of WWE for longer than any other wrestler in the company’s history. He won his first title in WrestleMania 21 and is still on the top of the cards more than a decade later. With that level of success comes merchandising, company support and MILLIONS OF DOLLAS *dances*. How many millions?

Well, according to Dave Meltzer, John Cena is earning upwards of $10 million a year now, including merch benefits and bonuses. That’s a ton of money, and up there with any single-year earnings of guys like The Rock and Stone Cold. We can all argue about John Cena, but it’s hard to argue that he doesn’t deserve the money.

Cena only misses time (except for the end of 2015) if he’s got a devastatingly critical injury. He’s been the stable, headlining presence for 10 years and he’s done more Make-a-Wish appearances than anyone ever.

Knew he was making a decent amount but didn't think it was as much as Dave "He might make millions of dollars but he might not earn millions of dollars, the accounting is still up in the air" Meltzer is reporting.

I think even the sweatiest neckbeard could not have a good argument for this
If he's legit making $10 mil a year then he is the greatest wrestler of all time. I dont think even Austin or Terry made that much. The most I heard was Austin making $8m in 98. But adjusted for inflation I guess they might be tied. Either way, salute Juan

This logic kills me, if anything dudes sell more Merch when they turn heel. I'm not talking about second teir wrestlers. But at Cenas level his Merch should do just as well as a heel.

Hollywood Hogan sold merch. sold NWO Merch crazzzyyy, Hollywood Hogan and Rodman tees were essentials.
Heel Rock sold Merch.
Austin's "What?" shirts were everywhere...

When your at that level it doesn't matter you gon sell.
