I've given this some thought, given that I haven't watched wrestling since 2003.

I wondered to myself who would be the highest paid wrestler of all time..?

In my persoanl opinion I have to think it could be Hulk Hogan, given that he debuted in like 1984 and kept going until WCW closed its doors in 2001. Although he has even come back since :)

I'm also thinking along the lines of HHH, Austin and The Rock?

I used to watch it years ago. Hulk Hogan aint doing bad at all. He also has 'Hogan Knows Best' and does other things. 2 homes one being in Miami. Probably not him though.

UFC isn't wrestling.. and either is Boxing..

obviously when he mentions names such as Hulk and The Rock, he means Professional Wrestling.

UFC is not wrestling.
UFC is mixed martial arts.
There is some wrestling involve in different styles, but ultimate fighting is not wrestling.

John Cena, Batista, Triple H, Undertaker and most of the Main Event Wrestlers make the 6 Digits Figure Money.

Adamle and JR make around $300,000 per year.

Hulk Hogan is the highest paid professional wrestler of all time. The highest paid wrestler in the WWE at the moment is Triple H, who earns $2,020,000 per year + benefits, followed by The Undertaker, $1.9M per year + same benefits. The lowest paid wrestler in the WWE earns $75,000 per year, and WWE Developmental wrestlers' contracts, Florida Championship Wrestling's talent, are all $50,000 a year. MVP being the highest paid is just a gimmick. The typical salary of a main eventer is $400,000+.

UFC is mixed martial arts, not wrestling. There are those who have a background in amateur and in some cases professional wrestling who add the style to their repetoires.

Vince got sued personally and the WWE got sued too. They lost on both accounts.

Yeah Triple H earns the big bucks too as he's also a member of the board.

Its gotta be either Hulk Hogan or another old wrestler like Ric Flair.

LOL@Funaki, made me remember Royal rumble (2000 i think) when him & Taka weren't in it but kept running in & getting chucked out on their heads :P
