Former WWE Superstar Alexander Wolfe/Axel Tischer recently spoke to Nick Hausman for WrestlingINC Daily. The former Sanity member discussed a number of topics during the interview, including when he moved from the main roster ‘down’ to NXT UK.
One of the more intriguing aspects of moving talent in WWE is that their contract status does not appear to change. That is at least the case when it came to Alexander Wolfe, as he said that he was still making ‘main roster money’ when he was on the NXT UK brand.
Alexander Wolfe on NXT UK Contract
“I had just signed the contract and had two years left” Wolfe revealed during the interview, indicating that he did not have to sign a new contract when moving to the smaller NXT UK brand from SmackDown.
“So you just stay under contract, and that’s it” Alexander Wolfe continued. “Which I am very grateful for because I went to NXT UK and just made main roster money, so that was sweet.”
It’s interesting that this would be the case for someone like the former Sanity member. Finn Balor of course made the move back ‘down’ to NXT in Florida, but with his status as a more upper card talent, it was almost expected from fans that he would be on a similar deal.
