Why can't Dibiase get over?

[Zigglerfan227]

When Legacy split up I did not know what might happen to Ted and Cody. When I first saw them on their own Ted had the Million Dollar championship and won a match against Christian. That was pretty cool. Cody was over on smackdown fighting John Morrison. So my first impression was that Dibiasi was going to be the Shawn Micheals of the team. In fact, I had been saying that all along anyway. I had always thought Ted was a better actor and had more of the "it" factor than Cody. But soon after these guys first matches Ted began to become very dry. Sure he had the Million Dollar title, but he just didnt look right standing alone. Maybe it is just me but it seems like he needs someone beside him at all times. Thankfully Maryse joined him and that made things better, but only for a few Raws. After a while it got really cheesy because of the way Ted and John Morrison's fued had got booked. Man, whoever books Morrison should go die because he is not funny as a face! So anywho, Ted began to look like a criminal from a Children's telivision show and Morrison was the hero of the show. So while Ted was looking silly Cody was over on Smackdown starting a new gimmick, "Dashing" Cody Rhodes. I was very impressed with Cody's new gimmick. He even had promo time, a segment about being Dashing, a new theme song, and new ring attire. I tell you, Cody has more personality now than he ever has! Ted is dryer than he has ever been.

Ted, leave the "rich man" gimmick to your father, please!
Cody is surpassing Ted on all levels right now and I am more of a fan of Cody than I have ever been.

i agree when legacy broke up i felt that cody was going to go nowhere fast ive always liked ted better than cody and still do even tho cody is doin pretty well on smackdown i still dont think hes world champion material i think wwe and ted need to just drop this whole tryin to be his dad (they even gave him virgil) and give him his own gimmick or w.e. he has the skills to be world champ just needs the good storyline/fued/gimmick

The reason DiBiase cannot get over is because he is living off his father's legend and trying to be too much like the Million Dollar Man. He needs to put that title back in the vault, friggen eat up the trust fund or whatever the storyline says he got from his dad, and make a gimmick for himself instead of using his father's gimmick. Look at Cody Rhodes, he found this Dashing gimmick and instantly got over because he used his own gimmick instead of the Common Man gimmick. Ted needs to get real and get a new gimmick or else he will continue to drop till he gets to the Zack Ryder level or even lower for that matter.

Ted Dibiase Jr...
I think you are right he doesn't stand out... Once again this was one of those moments where EVERYBODY! Thought that Ted Dibiase Jr. would be the next Randy Orton or "The Shawn Michaels" of the Legacy group. But who is getting the push right now? Cody Rhodes and I must admit I love his Dashing gimmick, but I will stay on subject with Ted Dibiase Jr. First off like what most people said... Ted Dibiase Jr. is BORING! He has no personality whatsoever! When he started off with this, "Million Dollar Son" Gimmick I was actually intrigued, but now it's been months since we heard of ol' Ted and in the process he lost all of his steam... Secondly he carries the Million Dollar Championship Belt around and he doesn't defend it or do anything with it! And lastly he is with Maryse... And I am not just saying that because I am jealous. I am saying that because when it is all said and done the whole relationship to me is pointless and doesn't make sense! Ted Dibiase Jr. Is not over because he is not getting himself over! He needs to defend the belt and actually put his, "Fortune and Fame" to use.

Bill Lesnar finds that DIBiase is the the middle of a very strong roster and is being held back on the mic. Bill also feels that the iwc is jealous of his relationship with Maryse. Bill Lesnar wants to see Diiase do more with the million dollar champioship. Bill Lesnar thinks that a feud with evan Bourne could do wonders for his crowd response in terms of getting heat
