Ted Dibiase on Vince’s BIGGEST FEAR, The Wrestler and MORE
Sun UK reports:
In a radio interview on KNBR in San Francisco, Ted DiBiase said one of the reasons Vince McMahon introduced the Wellness Policy was to help avoid premature deaths in the wrestling business. DiBiase didn’t specifically mention Andrew Martin but said Vince’s biggest fear was getting another call that one of his wrestlers had died. When asked about steroids he said they are still widespread in the business and guys use them to enhance their look and help with the heeling of injuries. He said he stopped using them in the 80s when a doctor told him that if he was born with cancer or any other dormant illness, the steroids could speed up the process. One of the hosts brought up Jake Roberts. DiBiase said he thinks Roberts would still be involved today with WWE if he could control his addictions. On The Wrestler, he said he recently watched the movie alone, and when his wife asked him what he thought, he said that if any of their friends saw it they would ask them why on earth they would let their kids get involved in wrestling. He said the movie shows what can happen if people make the wrong decisions.
