NJ.COM is reporting that local workers who were involved in helping with setting up WrestleMania and Axxess earned around $1.4 million in gross salaries and benefits.
A total of 450 people helped in setting up the huge set at the MetLife Stadium, transformed the IZOD Center for Axxess, and then set up for RAW, with workers coming in even as far as Cleveland to help out.
“We ran out of people in New Jersey,” International Alliance of Theatrical Stagehand President Kevin O’Brien said.
Between all Axxess events, Hall of Fame, WrestleMania, and RAW, WWE fans bought more than 140,000 tickets during the weekend.
