Okay, so I’ve been digging into something pretty interesting, and I just gotta share the details with you all. It’s about Michael Cole’s salary in WWE. You know, the guy who’s been the voice of wrestling for what feels like forever? Yeah, that guy.
First off, let me tell you, getting this info wasn’t as easy. I mean, it’s not like WWE just posts their salaries online for everyone to see. So, I had to roll up my sleeves and start searching.
I started with the usual spots – general search engines. Typed in stuff like “Michael Cole WWE salary” and, well, it was a mixed bag. Lots of speculation, some old numbers, but nothing concrete. It was a mess to be honest.
Then, I thought, maybe there’s some info on those wrestling forums. You know, the places where fans discuss everything and anything WWE. I jumped into a few of those, and that’s where I found a figure that seemed pretty reliable.
According to one of the forums, someone mentioned that Michael Cole makes around $650,000 a year. And get this, not just as a commentator, but also as the Vice President of Announcing. I was like, “Whoa, that’s a lot.” But then again, the guy’s been with WWE for ages and he’s basically the main voice you hear, so it kinda makes sense.
- Searched general engines for salary info.
- Found lots of speculation and outdated figures.
- Visited wrestling forums for more specific details.
- Discovered a source claiming Cole’s salary is around $650,000.
- Realized the salary includes his role as VP of Announcing.
But, you know how it is, I couldn’t just take one source’s word for it. So, I kept digging, looking for some sort of confirmation. It was tough, to be honest. Most places just repeated that $650,000 number, but I couldn’t find anything official from WWE.
After hitting a few dead ends, I decided to check out some articles about WWE salaries in general. Just to get an idea of where Cole’s figure stands compared to others. And, yeah, it seems like he’s up there with some of the top earners in the company, which isn’t really surprising when you think about it.
So, there you have it. I went down this rabbit hole, and the best I could find is that Michael Cole is likely making around $650,000 a year as WWE’s lead commentator and Vice President of Announcing. It’s a hefty sum, but for a guy who’s been the voice of wrestling for so long, it’s probably well-deserved.
What do you guys think? Does that number sound about right for someone in his position? I’m really curious to hear your thoughts!
