well agent up more like it

 

[Petty]

we kinda hijacked the cbox with this lmao

 

[Rugrat]

Hogan's contract was set-up so that his downside would be as high as anybody's and with the crazy PPV and merch bonus I imagine he made more than Goldy

 

[Petty]

yeah I heard they were making a killing off merch

 

[Necro]

I think Bischoff said if they put the money through Turner instead of WCW then they would get more than the other guys

 

[Necro]

So when Bret got all his money they said they were having him do movies for Turner so that that Hall and Nash couldn't get matching money

 

[Necro]

because they had a deal that would match any guy that came in the company

 

[Petty]

ric only made 500,000 a year

 

[Necro]

what's insane is Flair was making way more in the 80's then he was in the major WCW run

 

[Petty]

I think at that point ric was making booker money too so dunno how much that was

 

[Petty]

cause Nash had wrestler pay and booker pay.

 

[Necro]

Once Hogan came in Flair was screwed. Crazy part is Flair is the one that got Hogan into WCW. Worst decision ever

 

[Necro]

well for Flair it was haha

 

[Petty]

and lord knows the kick back ric was getting on merch

 

[Necro]

Bischoff said WCW had legit no merch money really
