This is for the crew, not the talent.

    Thanks for the clarification!

    This makes me feel a little better… but just a little.

    It was being reported at one point the bonuses wrestlers were getting for going to the Saudi shows are just figured into their contracts now, though I would hope they're getting offered some sort of hazard pay too.
