WWE legend Ted DiBiase has discussed his storyline with Cameron Grimes on "WWE NXT," and why WWE wanted to bring him in.

DiBiase appeared a few times on WWE's developmental show in 2021, featuring in segments with Grimes, as well as bringing back the Million Dollar Championship to WWE. In a recent edition of his "Everybody's Got A Pod" show, he recalled what WWE told him before putting him in a storyline with Grimes.

"I mean, they gave me a call and this is what they told me, they said, 'Teddy, we've got this guy named Cameron Grimes and he legitimately, you know, I mean invested in the stock market and had a big hit and made a lot of money in a very short period of time. And they thought what a great story would be is like, you know, even though what happened was actually very real and it goes to his head now.' That's the storyline — it goes to his head and he just starts doing ... he starts acting like, you know, going and buying all this fancy stuff."

The Hall of Famer recalled a vignette with Grimes in a jewelry store, where he tried to sell him a diamond Rolex. He stated that he enjoyed being a part of the storyline on "NXT," with WWE also telling him that the story got over with the fans.

"I don't think they planned to do more than a couple of shows because it was just the uniqueness of, you know, them taking advantage of something that really happened and put me in there for a couple of weeks. Again, they told me it's getting over so well, we want to, you know, keep you on for a couple more weeks and so I said I can do that," said the Hall of Famer.
