Mojo Rawley, once a fixture on WWE television, shared insights into his wrestling journey, shedding light on the hurdles he faced and the decisions he made along the way. Despite his release from WWE, Rawley remains candid about his experiences.
Rawley’s journey to WWE began amidst adversity, following a severe football injury that threatened to derail his athletic career. Despite considering other options, Rawley found himself drawn to the world of professional wrestling, thanks to connections with influential figures like the Gronkowski family and Mike Rotunda.
Reflecting on his initial WWE contract, Rawley disclosed that he turned down potentially lucrative football opportunities in favor of pursuing wrestling.
Despite the significant disparity in salaries, Rawley opted for a modest starting wage of $39,000 per year, driven by his passion for wrestling and belief in his potential success in the industry.
