Being a WWE Superstar is a dream, everyone who watches professional wrestling must have had once in their life.
It is considered that joining WWE, is the ultimate goal for many professional wrestlers. Well, there are many strong reasons for this popular belief.
One of the biggest reasons is that the appeal of WWE is greater than any other promotion on the planet. So, if you are in WWE, you are probably a global star.
However, apart from the fame, WWE offers a paycheck that is unparalleled. The paycheck is often the reason why many Superstars have jumped ships from rival promotions, like Mike Kanellis.
In this list, we are going to look at the 5 richest Superstars on the current roster. However, the list will include only active wrestlers.
Hence, names like The Rock, Stone Cold, Chris Jericho and The Undertaker will not be featured. Also, The Mcmahon family including Triple H is exempted.
#5 Kevin Owens
Kevin Owens, also known as Kevin Steen, hasn't been in WWE for too long, considering the fact that he signed with WWE in 2014.
Despite that, Owens has surpassed many veterans of WWE like Sheamus and Kane on this list.
However, Kevin Owens is not a new guy in the world of professional wrestling. Kevin Owens made his professional wrestling debut back in May, 2000.
Despite having spent just 4 years in WWE, Kevin Owens has a net worth that might shock many. As of 2018, Kevin Owens' net worth is $10 million. The figure is quite shocking as guys like Sheamus and Kane, both veterans in WWE, are tied with a net worth of $7 million.
#4 Jeff Hardy
The 'Charismatic Enigma' Jeff Hardy, is one the most talented wrestlers in WWE. Jeff Hardy made his professional wrestling debut on October 15, 1993. Jeff Hardy is not only an accomplished wrestler in WWE, but also in TNA.
Jeff Hardy is a Triple Crown and a Grand Slam Champion in WWE. In TNA, he is a two-time Tag Team Champion and a three-time World Heavyweight champion.
However, professional wrestling is not the only specialization of the 'Rainbow-Haired Warrior'. Jeff Hardy is also a singer-songwriter and a painter.
He is also part of a rock band called PeroxWhy?gen, which also includes fellow wrestler Shannon Moore.
He also has a website called JeffHardyBrand.com with products like t-shirts, DVDs, music and more. Jeff Hardy's current net worth is reported to be $12 million.
#3 Randy Orton
Randy Orton was born into professional wrestling, as both his father and grandfather were professional wrestlers.
Hence, it was no surprise when Orton too chose to walk in his father's shoes in 2000. Orton was soon signed by WWE in 2001 and was sent to its developmental territory, Ohio Valley Wrestling.
In his 17 years in WWE, the 'Viper' accomplished almost everything one could hope for. He is a 13-time World Champion, a Grand Slam Champion, and a two-time Royal Rumble winner.

#2 Brock Lesnar
Brock Lesnar has been one of those stars stars who has conquered wherever he has gone to, be it the WWE or UFC. The Beast Incarnate is a box office draw and that's a fact he has proven multiple times both in WWE and UFC.
Hence, it is not a surprise that he is the top-earning Superstar in WWE and was once one of the highest paid MMA fighters.
Brock Lesnar's salary has been a hot topic ever since he made his return to the company in 2012.
The multi-million contract that he signed before joining the WWE, also ensures that he has very limited appearances in a year.
His current net worth is reported to be $22 million.
#1 John Cena
The leader of the 'Cenation' is arguably the biggest Superstar to have come out of the PG era.
John Cena has been the face of the company for more than 10 years and hence it is no surprise that he bags the number 1 spot on our list.
John Cena is a record 16-time World Champion in WWE and, is also one of their top-earning Superstars.
Apart from wrestling, John Cena is a notable name in the field of acting and music too. Cena has starred in many movies, most notably The Marine and 12 Rounds.
The 'Doctor of Thuganomics' has also released an album, "You Can't See Me". Cena has also had endorsements with Gillette.
With so many ventures outside wrestling, it is not hard to believe that his net worth is reported to be $55 million.
