Trivia

  • Frequently brings his own table & banner to wrestling conventions & autograph signings where he is not booked, so he can set up his table of photos to sign, & he keeps urging people to buy his merchandise, at ridiculously high prices. His banner advertises Ted DiBiase to appear, but he never shows up because he has no knowledge of this event, & he is not booked to appear. Virgil does this to lure unsuspecting fans. His banner tends to misspell "DiBiase" as "DiBaise.".
  • Has set up his own Go Fund Me campaign to reach one million dollars, because he could not be bothered to get a job.
  • Virgil became a gloried jobber in the WWF, getting squashed by some of the biggest men such as Yokozuna, Nailz & Ludvig Borga.
  • Won Ted DiBiase's Million Dollar Championship.
  • Personal Appearance at Great Lakes Mall in Mentor, Ohio. Selling Pictures and signing autographs for $20.00 each.
