Ted DiBiase:
“I want Santa Claus to bring me enough grills and equipment and enough food to feed the entire DiBiase Posse which is large, strong and growing. It would be the biggest Christmas party known to man!”
Cody Rhodes also mentioned Ted in his Holiday Wish, saying: “I would like to be invited to the DiBiase Posse Party at one of the WWE live events. And I would like all those who attend to get food poisoning, besides me.”

Not only did Ted DiBiase get to play Santa Claus on SmackDown, but he distracted the villainous Jinder Mahal with his Christmas cheer, causing the underhanded Superstar to lose a match.
Ted DiBiase’s music plays and he comes to the ring with a bag of presents while Mahal Irish whips Gabriel. Mahal is about to put Gabriel in a camel clutch but he releases the hold to argue with DiBiase. Gabriel with a back heel kick and an STO. Gabriel goes up top for the 450 splash and he hits it and gets the three count.
When Jinder Mahal interrupted Ted DiBiase’s bout with Heath Slater on SmackDown – accusing the third-generation competitor of forsaking his family’s wealth by choosing to associate himself with the “mere commoners” of the DiBiase Posse – the once-egotistical Superstar couldn’t help but feel a strange sense of déjà vu.
“It brought back some memories,” DiBiase told WWE.com, thinking back to his days when he would flaunt his massive trust fund and seemingly limitless resources to the WWE Universe in arenas around the world. “I know Jinder’s type. He’s exactly who I was. I used to care about money and prestige above all else, and I thought those were the things that defined me. But that’s exactly the opposite of who I am today.”
Indeed, each and every week, the son of WWE Hall of Famer “The Million Dollar Man” now devotedly attends tailgating parties thrown by members of the DiBiase Posse – a passionate assemblage of WWE fans that goes to great lengths to show appreciation for their hero.
