Jazmyn Nyx Exposes Shockingly Low NXT Salary After Turning Down WWE Contract

Jazmyn Nyx is on her way out of WWE, and fans are now learning just how little she was being paid during her run with NXT.

The former NXT star responded to a fan on Instagram who cited that WWE developmental talent supposedly make between $80,000 to $150,000 per year. The fan questioned how that wouldn’t be enough financially—so Nyx decided to set the record straight.

“If I was making that, it would’ve been great!”

That single line confirmed what many suspected—Nyx was making less than $80K annually in WWE, far below what most fans thought was the norm for NXT talent. It’s a big reveal that added clarity to her decision not to re-sign with the company.

While WWE hasn’t commented on her departure, Nyx’s refusal to extend her deal appears tied at least in part to the money on the table—not speculation or personal drama. And for those assuming she’ll follow the trend of launching subscription content after leaving WWE, think again—Nyx already stated she has no plans to open an OnlyFans account.

Jazmyn Nyx’s situation has opened up more conversations about NXT’s pay scale and what WWE developmental stars are actually earning behind the scenes.

Should WWE be offering better base pay for NXT stars—or is this just part of paying dues in the wrestling world? Drop your thoughts in the comments.
