Alright, so I was digging around the internet the other day, trying to find out how much Michael Cole, the WWE commentator, makes. You know, just out of curiosity. And let me tell you, it wasn’t as easy as I thought it would be. I mean, this guy’s been in the business for years, right? You’d think his salary info would be all over the place. But nope, it’s like trying to find a needle in a haystack.
First, I went to the usual spots, you know, the big-name websites that talk about celebrity salaries and stuff. I typed in “Michael Cole salary” and got a bunch of results, but most of them were just articles talking about his career and how long he’s been with WWE. I was like, “Yeah, I know all that, but how much does he actually make?”
Then I tried getting a bit more specific. I searched for “Michael Cole salary 2024” because, hey, salaries change, right? This time, I found a few articles that actually mentioned some numbers. One of them said that as of September 2024, Michael Cole is making around $650 per minute. Per minute! Can you believe that? I mean, I knew these guys made good money, but that’s just insane.
- Started with the obvious searches. Like “Michael Cole salary”.
- Got more specific. Tried “Michael Cole salary 2024”.
- Found some numbers. One source said $650 per minute.
- Compared with others. Found out Pat McAfee makes way more, apparently.
Digging Deeper
But then I started thinking, is that number accurate? How do they even figure that out? So, I kept digging. I found another article that compared his salary to Pat McAfee’s, another WWE commentator. Apparently, McAfee, who’s also a former NFL star, has a net worth of around $60 million, while Cole’s is closer to $4 million. That’s a huge difference! It also mentioned that McAfee’s exact salary is undisclosed, which makes it even harder to compare.
So, I’m still not 100% sure how much Michael Cole actually makes. But from what I could gather, it’s somewhere in the hundreds of thousands, maybe even millions, per year. I’ve got to say, it was a wild goose chase, but it was kind of fun learning about how these salaries are estimated and how they compare to each other. It’s a crazy world out there, folks!
