Chris Jericho on his latest episode of Talk Is Jericho had Andrew Yang as a guest. Andrew Yang talked in length about unfair business in WWE.
Chris Jericho then spoke about not receiving royalties from WWE Network
This is no ill will towards WWE, it’s just the way it is. The fact that they can show all of my matches on their network that people pay for and I don’t get a dime of royalty, it makes no sense
Yang replied
Yeah, exactly, You should be getting residuals. One of the things that someone’s raised is that Screen Actors Guild protections are really–I mean, you can see how the Hollywood folks get treated, and a lot of a lot of performers, actually, would qualify for a Screen Actors Guild by the basis that you’re on TV, you have lines [and] you show up. I mean, the ratings of wrestling shows are higher than just about any other show on TV. You’re a talent, a performer, you’re getting a script [and] you do your thing.
