WWE Reportedly Offering "Main Event" Money To Superstars To Stop Them From Leaving The Company

Over the weekend, we learned that WWE had signed Luke Gallows and Karl Anderson to new five year contracts which will keep them in WWE until 2024. However, in a bid to ensure that they would stick around, the company reportedly offered them deals significantly higher than the $500,000 per year that was originally on the table. 

It's said that Gallows and Anderson could end up being multi-millionaires by the time all is said and done and that they're getting "main event" level money now. 

For the most part, it's believed that anyone else who shows signs of leaving when their contracts expire will receive similar offers and The Revival could be next (they're said to be keen to move on from WWE but the company has plenty of time to convince them not to head to All Elite Wrestling as their contracts don't expire until 2020).

WWE may claim that AEW isn't a threat but it's clear that they don't want to give the company any sort of advantage moving forward. What do you guys think?
