SmackDown Live Superstar, Ali, continues to a be a force of positivity amongst WWE’s roster.
The Superstar—who at one point performed double duty as an indie wrestler and active police officer— announced that he will be donating his entire Super ShowDown payday to the Charity: Water organization.
He revealed his intentions via social media, writing: “Earnings received today will be donated to @charitywater. Thank you.”
Looking To Inspire
Ali competed during WWE Super ShowDown’s 50-Man Battle Royal. NXT Superstar and Saudi Arabian hometown hero, Mansoor, would emerge victorious from the fray.
Prior to the 50-Man Battle Royal, Ali spoke with WWE.com. He shared that he hoped to inspire those watching as he competes. He intended to connect with “young boys and girls across the world” who are going to “[…] watch a guy just like them, who has a name just like theirs, compete in WWE’s largest Battle Royal in history, and to inspire them.”
There is no information on the amount WWE Superstars earn by competing in Saudi Arabia. It is believed to be a substantial amount.
It has been reported that some of the bigger names receive seven-figure amounts to work these controversial Saudi Arabian events. Even lower and mid-card performers are said to be making high amounts, with some as much as six-figure deals.
