Backstage Report from RAW on Why JTG and Other WWE Superstars Are Upset

http://www.lordsofpain.net/news/wwe/Backstage_Report_from_RAW_on_Why_JTG_and_Other_WWE_Superstars_Are_Upset.html

- As seen last night, WWE Superstar JTG spoke out about being unhappy with his role in the company and how he was tired of being taken advantage of.

F4Wonline.com reports that there have been some payoffs come out in the past few weeks, mainly the WrestleMania 28 payoff, and that is part of why JTG is upset. Word is that JTG isn't the only midcard talent upset about the WrestleMania payoffs. Apparently with WWE touting the success of the WrestleMania buyrate, the talents expected the payoffs to be more than what they actually were.

Word going around is that many talents are upset about it and lots of are talking privately about it but everyone is afraid to speak out because of fear for losing their jobs.

It's always possible that JTG may be released soon but the feeling backstage was that he was not trying to get released. Talents were keeping their distance from him before RAW went on the air last night but after the show, officials were coming up to him asking if he was okay and what the problem was.

Sounds similar to something Chris Jericho mentioned in Undisputed. He said after main eventing Wrestlmania X-8 he received a paycheck 5 times smaller than Triple H, who he faced in that match.

It seems to sound like, unless the WWE see you as a major star, you will get underpaid at the big show.

^ That's horrible he was the Undisputed Champion; sure he lost but he entered the PPV as champ he deserved a more equal pay..

I am going to be reading that book starting today so I will read all about that..

As for this I don't blame people for being upset although I thought you only got WM bonuses if you wrestled or appeared at WM?

For what I remember JTG and some others did neither.

Silva, you would still pick up a Wrestlemania bonus if you appeared in a dark match, or if you appeared in a backstage sketch.

JTG speaking out is going to get him fired, which is proof that backstage of WWE is corrupt.

If more people would speak up, there's a better chance they wouldn't get fired.
