10 Wrestling Facts We Didn't Know Last Week (Feb 2)

1. Ted DiBiase Had A Chance Encounter With The 'Basketball Kid'

When the evil Million Dollar Man kicked that basketball away from poor young Sean in 1987, wrestling history was made and one of WWE's best-ever heels firmly established. On WrestleZone Radio, DiBiase said he never thought he'd see the boy again. He did, and the get-together happened in unusual surroundings.

As he was scouring a car lot for a rental car in Omaha, Nebraska a few years ago, Ted was approached by a 6'6" guy looking to help. He was the manager of the branch, and he wondered if DiBiase remembered him. That's right, it was Sean, and he couldn't believe he had run into DiBiase so many years on from their infamous skit.

The story gets better. Sean had actually gone on to take a basketball scholarship at college and was drafted by the LA Lakers. He wouldn't make the cut, but the pair were able to joke that DiBiase's errant kick had pushed Sean onto a new career path.
