Cody Rhodes has finally realized his dreams, finished his story, and is the biggest star of the biggest sports entertainment company in the entire world, WWE. From undesirable to undeniable, Cody Rhodes had one of the best rises to the top in the world of professional wrestling.
American Nightmare’s run to the top earned him so much appreciation from his colleagues and fans worldwide. It also resulted in huge financial growth for Rhodes, as he has a solid net worth of $8 million now, which reportedly is 15x more than what he was making in his first run in the WWE.
However, despite being positioned as the next face of WWE, Cody Rhodes still finds himself out-earned by a certain section of top-tier WWE superstars. Let us take a look at three superstars who are ahead of him regarding his earnings:
1. Roman Reigns
Roman Reigns personifies what WWE is all about. The OG Tribal Chief has redefined the heights that a performer can reach in professional wrestling and has been ruling the world of WWE for more than a decade now.
With the appeal of The Head of the Table, it makes it obvious that Roman Reigns should be the highest-paid superstar in WWE. Reportedly, the former Undisputed WWE Champion has an astonishing net worth of over $14 million, which is close to being twice as much as Cody Rhodes.
2. CM Punk
No other superstars in the history of professional wrestling have captivated the attention of the WWE Universe quite like The Best in the World, CM Punk. He comes under the list of most influential performers of all time who have their footprint on the entire landscape of professional wrestling.
With such a loyal fan following worldwide, CM Punk has enjoyed a stardom not many have enjoyed in this industry, which also brought him huge financial success. Punk has a staggering net worth of over $12 million, which is comparably more than Cody Rhodes net worth.
3. Seth Rollins
You can call Seth Rollins the Messiah, the Visionary, the Architect, or the Man’s Man. In between performing several different gimmicks with such ease, one should not forget to add how influential Rollins has been in the world of professional wrestling, making him one of the most important WWE superstars of the modern era.
Seth Rollins was also the first person to battle the current Undisputed WWE Champion Cody Rhodes upon his historic return to the WWE at WrestleMania 38. He has been in WWE’s main-event scene for more than a decade, warranting him immense success financially with his net worth standing at $12 million, which is more than Rhodes by a huge margin.
