About the Author
Ted DiBiase is known around the professional wrestling world as the ultimate villain, "The Million Dollar Man." He no longer wrestles, but now stars as an announcer for the WCW's weekly program on the Turner Broadcasting Company. He lives in Missouri.

I'm a little drunk and started watching Royal Rumble 94. DiBiase came out for announcing, and I got curious. I thought to check wikipedia to see when and why he went to wcw and if they used him for anything. Then I thought I may as well check and see if he has a book. Found that. I wouldn't be surprised to find that there are a few more descriptions like that, I've just never cared to look before

Nothing real special, just thought I'd share

I have the book in question... I am not positive, but the Amazon description might be the "About the Author" that was included with the book. The book came out shortly after DiBiase's WCW stint, so the About the Author was probably written while he was still working there.

Very good book, by the way. He's a lot more open about his personal life than a lot of wrestlers are. He describes the day his stepfather (Iron Mike DiBiase) died at a match, including Terry Funk handing Ted (a young boy at the time) his fathers gear after he got the sad news.

I recommend it, if you're in the market for a good old school wrestling book.
