Well dude, this former MMA fighter is going to give you his two cents.
When I used to fight, it kept me in good shape. The comradarie was pretty good and the fighters were pretty stand up guys. You could fight without there being any tension afters. Hell, I even have a pic with a guy who whooped the shit out of me and still think highly of the guy. But the MMA game has changed. Ever since the days when guys like Tito Ortiz came onto the scene, promoters found it to be more lucrative to get into guys heads and to promote fights that would end up being like long feuds and such. I mean it's one thing to have your game face on for a bout, but to genuinely hate and disrespect a guy 24/7 is just not what I believe in. So I got out of the game. I was always taught respect when I trained in the martial arts. And it just wasn't there anymore.
But hey, you gotta go with whoever is more lucrative for you. I would go wrestling myself, even if you aren't going to be seen by millions of people. Beats the hell out of some jackass who tweaks your arm or leg too far on purpose because his trainer doesn't like yours. I wish you success and luck in your decision bro.

I'd go with MMA. There's more money to be made, it's more popular, and you would be pushed based on talent, size wouldn't become a factor like it is in the Wrestling world.
I don't think there is more money to be made. MMA isn't popular. UFC is. So unless you're in a big promotion like that, or to a lesser extent Cage Rage or Heroes then you won't make a great deal.
From a money stand point I wouldn't waste my time with either. It all depends if you want to learn to protect yourself, or gain a little fame.
