Johnny Devine admits that he was frustrated by the difference in pay between the veteran wrestlers and the younger wrestlers in TNA. "The hard part to swallow is the difference in pay," Devine told the Winnipeg Sun. "Yes, they're legends. But the salaries aren't even remotely close. I don't want to get into specifics, but there's a big difference. There was frustration."
However, Devine refutes online reports that suggested he was making $30,000 when he asked for his release. "I made more than 30Gs and flights were covered," he said. To read the full interview, visit WinnipegSun.com.
There is legitimate tension between some of the younger wrestlers in TNA and the veterans. In typical Vince Russo style, the backstage drama has been turned into a storyline.
