Ted DiBiase Jr: Growing Up as the Son of the Million Dollar Man

**Clay Edwards Show – Ted DiBiase Jr: Growing Up as the Son of the Million Dollar Man** Ted opens up about what it was really like growing up in Clinton as the son of the Million Dollar Man. He shares how his childhood felt pretty normal — friends would come over, they’d watch his dad’s matches on TV, then run outside and play like regular kids. It wasn’t until he was about 7 or 8 that he started realizing his dad wasn’t just “Ted” — he was a global superstar.   He recalls moments like Virgil (his dad’s bodyguard) picking him up from school in a big Lincoln Town Car, and the first time he met Andre the Giant, who scooped him up with one hand like a basketball and called him “little buddy.” Ted talks about seeing his childhood heroes like Bret Hart in the ring and how his dad would always reassure him, “Don’t worry, it’s not real,” even while living the larger-than-life wrestling lifestyle. Unfiltered, no sugar added reality radio at its finest.
