The Million Dollar Belt Returns

For the first time in fourteen years the Million Dollar Championship has been carried out to the ring by a wrestler in some sort of storyline. Ted DiBiase Jt. the son of the Million Dollar Man said his dad won him over by giving him the title. The belt made it’s debut on March 4, 1989 when Ted DiBiase created after failing to win the WWE Championship numerous times. Only two other men until last night have held that title.

Virgil who DiBiase’s bodyguard jumped out of his masters shadow in 1991 and defeated DiBiase at Summerslame 1991. The other man that held was The Ringmaster who eventually became Stone Cold Steve Austin. Having that title certainly launched the WWE career of Stone Cold.

I think having this title is going to be a great thing for Ted Jr. He needs something to help him stick out as a singles wrestler. I believe that the Million Dollar Title will help Teddy become just as great as a heel as his father was. Only time will tell if Teddy will do his father and that belt justice. WWE needed to bring a little bit of school into their new school attitude. Everyone has a price, and what price will the superstars of the WWE pay to try and take the title of the fortunate son. Stay tuned for more.
