Ted DiBiase Jr. Reveals Why He Left WWE In 2013 Speaking to Chris Van Vliet, DiBiase Jr. says that he felt expectations were higher because of his legendary surname. “Personally I feel like they were, that’s a personal opinion,” DiBiase Jr. said. “But yeah, you want to do justice to the legacy, when that torch is passed and you are trusted with the opportunity and to be blessed with the opportunity. But yeah they give you time and pay a lot of money on these networks to deliver, and in a short time.” That short time was no joke either. DiBiase Jr. highlighted his fast-track to worldwide television, noting he made the leap to WWE far sooner than his father.
