Last week, the Wrestling Observer reported that the WWE are desperate to re-sign current stars, reportedly offering to double current salaries if Superstars re-sign on the spot.

This week though, a source from rajah.com is reporting that a similar plan is being offered to legends and non-wrestlers in WWE.

These legends/non-wrestlers will receive a 50% pay increase to stay with the company according to the source.

The WWE obviously have the most money in this new bidding war, and clearly is not afraid to throw the big bucks around to keep their talent, and get new ones.
