Kofi and Austin Creed Reveal WWE Pay Cut Exceeded 50%

Kofi and Austin Creed have shared that their exit from WWE was prompted by a request for a pay cut exceeding 50%. This revelation came after their debut in AEW at All In.

Both wrestlers had significant roles in WWE's tag team division for a decade, but felt undervalued under the new TKO ownership. Kofi mentioned that while financial compensation was a major factor, the lack of appreciation played an even larger role in their decision to leave.

Kofi expressed his desire to pursue his career on his own terms and emphasized the importance of self-belief in facing uncertainties. He also highlighted the appeal of competing against top tag teams in AEW as a motivating factor for their transition.
