Jazmyn Nyx is finishing up with NXT after a contract dispute that has her willing to walk away from NXT.

Fightful Select spoke with a number of sources familiar with the situation, including agents, NXT staff, talent and more about the figures going around and what happened in relation to Nyx's deal.

WWE sources did confirm to Fightful Select's Sean Ross Sapp that they wanted to retain her, but were unwilling to budge from their offer. The claims from inside NXT was that Nyx was at about $75,000 on her deal, which is the same amount that was offered for a new multi-year deal. We aren't told if that would have escalated over time. NXT talent can make significantly less than that when they're recruited or first brought in. However, there are some on the NXT roster that are making six figures, and even above main roster minimums. The main roster base pay starts at $350,000 according to those we spoke with.

When one person on Instagram commented that NXT wrestlers make 80-150k, Jazmyn noted that it wouldn't have been an issue if that were the case. One NXT talent said that Nyx likely ended up with less than 60k after taxes, and still incurs the cost of gear and the like.
