9. Kurt Angle ($25M)

Unlike many of his past WWE opponents, Angle actually wrestled competitively before – at the 1996 Summer Olympics, he won a gold medal for the US. However, there’s not much money in competitive wrestling, so Angle turned professional.

Angle last wrestled in WrestleMania 35 professionally and subsequently became a WWE Hall of Fame Inductee in 2017. These days, he heads his own company called Physical Fit Nutrition.
