Alberto Del Rio / “The Million Dollar Man” Ted DiBiase

He would probably want you to believe that he is Mexico’s greatest export. Yet when Alberto Del Rio burst upon the WWE scene in 2010, his arrogant, pompous and aristocratic persona evoked an essence of similarity to that of “Million Dollar Man” Ted DiBiase. Del Rio has established himself as one who loves to flaunt his self-righteousness at every opportunity he gets, something that DiBiase arguably trademarked during his WWE tenure. That trait alone incurred the wrath and ire of the WWE Universe then, and it does now. And even though DiBiase’s wealth went in many different directions, Del Rio boasted his at one time by driving into the arena of battle with a different luxury vehicle each and every evening. But like DiBiase proved by dominating his opponents by stuffing cash down their throats night after night, Del Rio echoes The Million Dollar Man by exhibiting an impressive wrestling acumen that has garnered him two reigns of both the WWE and World Championship. – HOWARD FINKEL
