According to reports, WWE was reportedly unhappy with Priscilla Kelly stating that some NXT contracts go as low as $30,000.
“She was talking about how people overestimate how much everybody makes in NXT, and she mentioned that people made as little as $30,000. And man, people in WWE were not happy with that interview because nobody’s making $30,000 in NXT.
The NXT deals start at $75,000. So if you’re on television, wrestling on NXT television as a contracted performer, you’re making at minimum $75,000. Now, if you are a Jordynne Grace or you’re a Ricky Saints or whoever, you’re obviously gonna be making more than that,
— At the same time, the WWE ID talent, nobody’s making close to $30,000. They’re making significantly less because essentially the contracts are, ‘We (WWE) have the right to match any offer.’”

Priscilla Kelly is returning to MLW:
Aw, is the WWE all upset because some dirty laundry got out? I guess when your sole focus is to either buy out or run out of business every other promotion, your feathers tend to get ruffled easier.
