Ted DiBiase Recalls His First Impression Of WWF

On the latest episode of Everybody’s Got a Pod, WWE Hall of Famer Ted DiBiase talked about his first impression of WWF. Vince McMahon, and more. You can check out some highlights below:

On his first impression of WWF: “The only thing I had to keep in mind was how business was doing. It’s kind of like, I mean the minute that I saw that Vince McMahon had set a indoor world attendance record, 93,000 people at the Pontiac Silverdome for WrestleMania 3. Oh my gosh. I mean, I said it immediately. I said, ‘If I’m going to stay alive in wrestling, then I’m going to have to go work for Vince McMahon.’”

On Vince McMahon not being a cheap promoter: “Yeah, I mean wrestling promoters are notorious for being cheap! [laughs] You know what, to Vince’s credit — I mean, oh my gosh. I mean, how can I talk about anybody being cheap when he gives me this character, and I’m flying around in lyrics and limousines and the whole nine yards, you know. And the company’s picking up the tab. Wow.”
