WWE has over 100 active Legends deals, says Nick Khan
WWE President Nick Khan has revealed that the promotion has over 100 active legends deals.
During the recent Senate committee hearing about the Muhammad Ali Boxing Reform Act on April, 22, 2026, WWE President and Zuffa Boxing executive Nick Khan opened up in detail about the company’s finances.
As the hearing advanced, Khan went on and revealed that WWE currently has over 100 active legends contracts with them.
“So WWE, for example, has over 100 deals with what we call our legends, our retired wrestlers. So they receive compensation from us for years after their retirement from [the] ring, because of their participation in our video games, trading card deals, merchandise deals, and action figures, and all of these other ancillary revenues.”
At the same hearing, Nick Khan was also asked about his intentions on bringing WWE WrestleMania to the soon-to-be-built domed stadium in Cleveland. Both of them also opened up on the success of the 2024 SummerSlam PLE in Cleveland.
