RIC FLAIR—$3 MILLION
Richard Morgan Fliehr, who’s more popularly known by his wrestling stage name Ric Flair, is, to a huge degree, one of the most successful wrestlers of all time. Indeed, many of his wrestling colleagues and many of the journalists who cover entertainment wrestling have Flair on their shortlist of greatest wrestlers of all time.
Ric Flair didn’t retire until the age of 59, which many in the industry thought was too old to still be wrestling. Indeed, insiders have said that some wrestlers looked unfavorably at the fact that Flair was still wrestling at an old age. In any case, Flair is still actually signed by WWE on what they call a Legend’s contract.
