• Top WWE Star is a Free Agent
Logan Paul first appeared in WWE in 2021 during the Kevin Owens vs. Sami Zayn feud on the road to WrestleMania 37. He then signed a contract with the company a year later and became a part of the roster.
Ahead of RAW’s move to Netflix earlier this year, the former United States Champion moved from SmackDown to the red brand during the WWE Transfer Window. However, his status within the company has changed now.
According to WrestleVotes, Paul is currently listed internally within the WWE roster as a free agent, meaning creative has the freedom to work him in to either RAW or SmackDown storylines when required.
The YouTuber last appeared on WWE programming at Clash In Paris last month, where he lost to John Cena.
• Jazmyn Nyx’s WWE NXT Salary Revealed
NXT star Jazmyn Nyx is leaving WWE. The company wanted to retain Nyx but refused to adjust its contract offer.
According to Fightful Select, Nyx was said to be earning around $75,000 per year, and the same amount was offered to her in a new multi-year deal. It’s unclear if the new contract would have included pay increases over time.
For comparison, while new recruits can make significantly less than that figure, several NXT talents are reportedly on six-figure salaries – in some cases even exceeding WWE’s main roster minimum base pay of $350,000 (like Jordynne Grace, who is on a main roster salary in NXT).
When a fan on Instagram suggested that NXT wrestlers typically earn between $80,000 and $150,000, Nyx responded that there wouldn’t be an issue if that were accurate. One fellow NXT performer also told Fightful that Nyx likely took home less than $60,000 after taxes, while still covering expenses such as wrestling gear and travel.

• AJ Styles Announces He Will Retire Next Year
AJ Styles has officially announced that he will retire from professional wrestling in 2026.
Ahead of the WWE Supershow in Japan, taking place on October 17 and 18, Styles revealed in an interview with Tokyo Sports that his upcoming match in Japan will be his last one in the country.
“I’m really excited. This will probably be my last fight in Japan, so I’m really looking forward to it. I’m planning to retire soon, so I may not come back to Japan before I retire.”
He also spoke about his plans before stepping away from the ring and confirmed that next year will be his last as a pro wrestler.
“I will probably appear at WrestleMania (next year), but it’s not confirmed yet. The details are still undecided, but I will definitely retire within the next year. I don’t want to show my fans a side of me that isn’t AJ Styles. That’s the main reason. I’ve decided to retire before my body can no longer move.”
The Phenomenal One added that he will likely stay in wrestling in some capacity.
“I haven’t decided yet, but I think I’ll probably work for WWE. It might be good to train young wrestlers to be worthy of being on the main roster, but I don’t know yet.”
He closed by sharing his thoughts on competing one final time in Japan.
“Japan is the place that shaped AJ Styles, and it’s also my favorite place in the world. I’ll give it my all in the ring. If I can earn the respect of the Japanese fans, they’ll cheer me on forever. That’s why I come to Japan every time.”
AJ Styles recently teased retirement by posting a photo of an hourglass on his Instagram account. His WWE contract is rumored to expire around February 2026.
The former WWE Champion will face John Cena at Crown Jewel in Perth, Australia, on Saturday, October 11.
