Book Overview

Everyone's got a price.

Everyone's got to pay.

'Cause the Million Dollar Man always gets his way.

After proving his point, Ted DiBiase would laugh and fan out his large roll of hundreds, worsening the degradation of whoever had been foolish enough to accept his challenge or get in his way.

Former wrestling fan enjoys book

I originally bought this book to save money on shipping, but it was really entertaining. I used to watch wrestling around 20 years ago, I wondered what the million dollar man really like. Reading this book I learned about the constant travel and respect for the wrestling business. I also learned about Ted Diabase the person. I would recommend this book to anyone who knows who Ted Diabase is, you don't have to be a wrestling fan to enjoy this one. Remember don't cheat, don't steal and don't lie

Great bgok!

As a huge fan of Ted, I thoroughly enjoyed this book and his honesty. He was always one of my favorite characters and he's extremely easy on the eyes.

A must read

The DiBiase that writes this book and the one who was the perrenial bad guy in the 80's and 90's aretwo different people. I am a pro wrestler myself and it is good to know that with all of the garbage that goes on in the business, a man can actually change for the better. Ted talks about the territories and the old days and does it with class that doesn't sound forced. Even though it is a WWE book, it does come off honest. Highly recommended.

Ted DiBiase: The Million Dollar Man

The book is written well and provides a detailed account of his entire life to this point. He talks about his childhood, his mother and father's wrestling career, highschool and college football, his wrestling career from the terrritorial to the WWE and WCW, to his addictions and being a born again christian. I picked up this book based on hearing his son Ted would be coming to the WWE, which jogged my memory of the WWE in the late 1980's and early 1990's. I really liked some of his stories about being on the road and also hanging with Andre The Giant!

Excellent Book!

This book is an excellent one which provides the reader with much insightful information about professional wrestling during the 1970s through 2006. Ted DiBiase was a very talented wrestler who performed as one of the greatest heel characters of all times - the totally despicable Million Dollar Man. It was also quite interesting to note that the heel persona which Ted DiBiase was able to so successfully present was clearly not the real Ted who is known to his friends, fellow wrestlers, family and others. This book presents solid information about how the Million Dollar Man was created by the WWE honcho Vince McMahon and capably carried out by DiBiase. The book also provides much insight into what it takes to become a wrestler and the sacrifices which must be accepted in order to receive any measure of success in the mat world. I know that true wrestling aficionados will find reading this book to be a real pleasure with much that can be learned about the profession of wrestling. After ending his wrestling career, Ted went into the Christian ministry to serve people in a very different capacity, and very successfully too. All aspects of Ted's life were covered in this book and provided in a way which demonstrates his self awareness and his honesty in revealing himself to the reader.
