wwe salary

Question
how much great khali gets a year as his salary.why he is missing in action lately?we really looking for his fights.

Answer
Hi Clement.  Thanks for the question.

I don't really know for sure how the Great Khali makes, as I don't think WWE really discloses that information.  I've seen various lists floating around the internet showing what wrestlers make, but those were from several years ago, and Khali wasn't on them.  Regardless, I don't know how accurate those lists are anyway.

The Great Khali has basically been a lower to mid card wrestler during his career, with a short run as a main eventer.  Based on the lists that I've seen, lower card talent make anywhere from $50,000 to $250,000 per year.  Mid card talent makes $250,000 to $500,000.

I'm guessing he makes $200,000 to $300,000 per year.  I could be wrong, but just based on the amount he is used, and figuring in that he probably doesn't sell a whole lot of merchandise, I can't really see him making anymore then that.

As far where he's been lately, I heard he was filming a reality television show in India called Big Boss, which is basically a knock off of Big Brother.  

I also know he's been bothered by several injuries over the years, including having very bad knees.  He might be taking some time off to let his injuries heal.

Thanks again for the question.  Let me know if you have anything else.

Have a great day!
