Everybody's Got a Price, MUHAHAHAHA
 
World Wrestling Entertainment has signed Ted DiBiase Jr. to a developmental deal and will be sending him to Florida Championship Wrestling in Tampa, Florida. DiBiase Jr., who just completed a tour with Pro Wrestling NOAH in Japan, was trained by Harley Race's school and is the son of "Million Dollar Man" Ted DiBiase and the grandson of "Iron" Mike DiBiase and Helen Hild.

-----------------

I've seen a couple of his NOAH matches, kids good

Dave Youell 07-24-2007 09:59 AM

I haven’t seen him, but I’ve heard good things about him.

Guess this means that Ted will be back on TV soon, contract or not. Everyone’s got a price, everyone’s gotta pay, cos the million dollar ma……….

Hanso Amore 07-24-2007 11:11 AM

Another few months and he will be fueding with Orton.



Although Dusty and Ted had the little Rivalry over the services of Sapphire. They could re hash it....Just kidding.



They are really pushing the 2nd generation gimmicks.

<font color=white>No matter how shitty it may pan out (and I'm not saying it definitely would), seeing DiBiase back on screen as the Million $ Man and as a heel manager is one of the only things I would mark out like a bitch for (along with the resurrection of Curt Henning and maybe Bret Hart in a WWE ring again)</font>

Loose Cannon 07-24-2007 11:46 AM

Carlito, Orton, Rhodes and Dibiase :cool:

Innovator 07-24-2007 02:22 PM

You also have Harry Smith and Teddy Hart coming in. Lot of 3rd or 3nd generation stars on the horizon.

BigDaddyCool 07-24-2007 02:46 PM

In a side note, does anyone know if Harley Race is a good trainer? Being from KC, I am interesting in let him train me to be the next great world champion.

Innovator 07-24-2007 02:56 PM

He trained Trevor Murdoch

It can't hurt to be trained by one of the best world champions ever.

James Steele 07-24-2007 03:26 PM

I don't think you can get much better than Harley Race.

Slow 07-24-2007 03:36 PM

Being trained by the Warrior must be an awesome experience. of sorts.

The guy can hardly move now, i bet he runs it, but doesn't really do any of the training itself

Thats what Shawn Michaels did, and look at the talent that came out of his school.

Mooияakeя™ 07-24-2007 05:08 PM

Shane McMahon recommended someone to Harley Race didn't he? Hennig's kid was it?

There have been a lot of great guys to come out of Shawn Michaels' school. Bryan Danielson, Paul London and Brian Kendrick would probably be the best three. Just outside them is Lance Cade and Matt Bentley. In the third tier you have Tomko and Shawn "Hotstuff" Hermandez. Then you have a bunch of somewhat solid guys with potential, and a bunch I have not heard of. When I am not blowing their dick, it's kind of depressing. :(

Shawn Michaels and the TWA is awesome, don't get me wrong, but I think a lot of it depends on the actual student, as well. Harley Race, Shawn Michaels and Lance Storm would be three guys to really get the best out of the guys they train, though. Trevor Murdoch is vastly underrated as a performer, in all areas. So Harley Race did a great job with him.

I have not seen anything of Ted DiBiase, Jr., but I have heard good things about him. Apparently he's good, with some room to get even better. He'll probably be in development for a good year-year and a half, though.

The WWE is missing out on a huge opportunity if they do not have him come in as the "Billion Dollar Boy," though.

Mr. Nerfect 07-24-2007 05:50 PM

The third generation wrestlers under WWE contract, to my knowledge, are:

1. Chavo Guerrero
2. Randy Orton
3. Finlay
4. Harry Smith
5. Teddy Hart
6. Ted DiBiase, Jr.

What I wouldn't give to see them compete in some kind of Round Robin Tournament for a Third Generation Cup, or something.

ClockShot 07-24-2007 05:59 PM

Ted Jr. got signed. Pretty good.

But the question I have is since Ted Sr. found God and is now a minister somewhere, you think he might come back to the company/TV?

Indifferent Clox 07-24-2007 06:00 PM

Oh crap! TDJR the best wrestler who's price is yet to be determined.

Well, he was with them for a bit whilst being a Christian, and his son apparently is. I don't think it would be too hard to convince him to come back.

Indifferent Clox 07-24-2007 06:07 PM

I want to see how WWE would fuck up sting... I watch wwe because I'm an entertainment Masochist. I love watching good tv fall.

They cut him as an agent when they were "trimming fat" and I believe he just wants to be able to keep his evangelical ministry going.

mrslackalack 07-25-2007 11:50 PM

Yup Shane recommended Race to Hennigs son.

The One 07-26-2007 12:52 AM

I looked forward to seeing him, but something tells me he doesn't have his old man's skills.

Blitz 07-26-2007 12:54 AM

I would just like to say that Million Dollar Man may have had the best theme music ever.

Nah that belongs to Dusty Rhodes.

Blitz 07-26-2007 01:03 AM

Dusty Rhodes' music doesn't have the best laugh in the history of the business in it.

McLegend 07-26-2007 01:04 AM

No it does not, but c'mon he's just a common man

Nervous Ferret 07-26-2007 01:06 AM

You know who else is a common man?

Not legend

McLegend 07-26-2007 01:07 AM

I don't work hard with my hands

James Steele 07-26-2007 01:09 AM

...because you work hard with your mouth.

McLegend 07-26-2007 01:13 AM

Well played

The One 07-26-2007 01:14 AM

Brovo Steele.

James Steele 07-26-2007 03:05 AM

I figured the YouTube clips would be more popular.
