@DannieGemz Месяц назад

Ted actually arranged this for Virgil, he looked after him well did Ted. Sadly though and i hate to speak bad of the dead but Virgil was quite liberal with Ted's generosity, and kinda took the piss @ conventions and such it ended up souring things a lil towards the end. Virgil was very much like that 'friend' who you help out one day then keeps on taking.

@marcusgurley9495 Месяц назад

Yeah. At one point, Virgil was taking bookings telling people that he was bringing Ted with him and that’s where the drama started.

I love this episode with Ted and Virgil. I also considered their promos the best. I don't think they were trained actors, but look how well they inprovised. Not enough credit is given to wrestlers for this talant as well. They sacrifice their bodies for the entertainment value. Yes, they get paid, but as a fan I find there skills to act above TV or movie actors. And the Ted DiBiase laugh; OMG, I wish I could laugh like that. It never gets old.

Personally I felt that it would have been great for the company an the characters career, He was one of the most smoothest workers, the way he sold moves!! His flipping over on his neck an land flat on his stomach was a priceless sell!! His technical ability in the ring also compensated those powerhouses, yet that short closeline

Taught by Terry Funk 1978-1983. Honed his craft. Vince was all about the showmanship and muscles in the late 80s so guys like DiBiase and Bret Hart and Mr Perfect never got the accolades they deserved. Idiots like Warrior were pushed to the top..

I didn't plan on opening it till I bought a few more WWF figures like Jake the snake, ultimate warrior and Etc then I opened The million dollar man..
