Conversely, I thought the 'Million Dollar Corporation' was a complete waste of Ted DiBiase's verbal talent.
Aligning him with washed-up bums like Volkoff, I.R.S., Bundy and Kama, or misdirected no-hopers like Bigelow, the Kid, Sid, Underfaker and Xanta Klaus, the WWF took potentially the greatest manager on their books at the time and turned him into the leader of the 'Not Over In The Slightest Club'.
The only two members with any discernable talent remaining were Bigelow and 123 Kid, and even they were victims of the Million Dollar Heat Vacuum.
The interminable feuds with Lex Luger and the Undertaker were about 10 years behind the times, and by the time they had concluded, and DiBiase brought Austin into the WWF, even DiBiase's heat had evaporated.
On top of that, the SummerSlam they headlined had one of the worst main events ever, and WrestleMania XI remains the lowest grossing WrestleMania of all-time (I believe).
A major flop from nearly every perspective.
