Several WWE producers, as well as several WWE referees will see their pay cut by as much as 20% as a result of WWE’s cutbacks related to the Coronavirus pandemic, according to a report from Dave Meltzer of The Wrestling Observer who notes that this is on top of the company’s decision to reduce pay for executives and officials.
WWE announced in a press release back in April that they would be reducing executive and board member compensation, decreasing operating expenses, cutting talent expenses, third party staffing and consulting, deferring spend on the build of the company’s new headquarters for at least 6 months and both laying off and furloughing a portion of their workforce.
