Bruno,Tony Garea,Larry Zbyszko,Heenan (until his passing),Hogan,Flair,Monsoon,Steamboat,Savage (again, before passing)Most of the successful ones, though, are well off BECAUSE they partook in outside ventures.
Captain Lou AlbanoJesse VenturaAnd, the most obvious one, Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson.
Don't think Flair needs to be on there will all his bankruptcies and lawsuits against him.
Don't believe everything you hear...he is doing very well. All debts are paid off and he's worth a cool 7 mill. He has other ventures and an energy drink that are netting him good coin.
rick steiner= real estate, scott steiner -teacher and restaurateur.
He also got himself a new agent.To add to the list, I always got the feeling that Piper did well for himself. He hopped on the bandwagon of touring as a one-man show for a time. He regularly appeared on TV and in films for many years. He took long, frequent brakes from wrestling - giving the impression he didn't "need" the work. I saw him and his family on a home show, in which they were buying a house shortly before he passed. Their possessions and attitude strongly indicated a humble, frugal, practical lifestyle. Like the Poffo's, I suspect the Toombs' family was very responsible with their finances.
Piper lived on and owned a ranch in Oregon for the longest time. He liked his seclusion much like Andre and Savage.
Also, Playboy - and correct me if I'm wrong - but I believe Piper & family bought that Oregon property back in the "kayfabe days," when fans were still threatening and attacking wrestlers (and their families) based on their "characters."
Doesn’t Alundra Blayze/Madusa drive monster trucks for a living? And she’s married to an Army guy who had to be flown back to the states to see her get inducted to the WWE Hall of Fame.
I remember reading and seeing pictures of her driving monster trucks, but I know nothing about her husband.
"Leaping" Lanny Poffo is reported to be wealthy based on prudent management of his wrestling earnings.
Several guys from back then have claimed that their Dad, Angelo, was notoriously miserly thrifty and very good at playing the stock market, and that the boys adopted a good degree of those traits.
Cornette said Mick Foley and Owen Hart once had a contest to see who could spend the least on the road for a week.Supposedly it came down to like pennies a day.
