WWE Hall of Famer “The Million Dollar Man” Ted DiBiase recently took to an episode of his “Everybody’s Got a Pod” podcast, where he talked about a number of topics including his favorite wrestler that he managed.
DiBiase said, “I managed a few. Who was in Money Incorporated?… Steve Austin was there for a while, but obviously [he moved on]. I saw that coming. I mean, obviously Steve Austin has become a super icon, and I get it. I didn’t manage him very long. And to be honest with you, I didn’t think I’d be managing him very long because I could see what the guy had, and I just thought, ‘Man, this guy is going to shoot to the top.’ And that’s exactly why I said he’s not going to be with me long because he doesn’t need me. That’s a whole lot of talent. But in terms of as a manager and a — probably Steve Austin [sticks out].”
DiBiase also talked about the wrestler whom he had the most fun managing.
“But I tell you who I had fun managing: Bundy. I mean, he’s a good guy. He’s a fun guy. I mean, obviously not the greatest wrestler in the world, but he was a fun guy, for sure. And I’ll be honest with you, he did pretty good on his own. Yeah, that’s a hard question. I mean, because there’s so many guys. It’s a plethora of talent. And it’s like, I don’t want to pick one and cut somebody else short.”
