Money will always talk, and Ted DiBiase would fit right in with, say... the Authority.

Think about it. To this day, fans remember DiBiase's "every man has his price" line, and it's a statement that has come true time and time again in the world of professional wrestling, both inside and outside of storylines. In fact, it's a bit of a precursor to the current "best for business" line thrown about by Steph and Triple H. 

So just picture the Million Dollar Man as an on-screen character, part of that faction. The powerful financier behind the scenes. Arguably, the gimmick would work better now than ever. Power never goes out of style. 

Still not convinced? Consider the million dollar belt - in an era where the WWE Champion is obsessed with a statue of himself, is that kind of arrogance really out of place? No, of course not. It would fit right in.
