Brett DiBiase, the brother of Ted DiBiase and son of "Million Dollar Man" Ted DiBiase, will be released from WWE at the end of the month, according to DiBiase, Sr. Brett is currently in WWE developmental, but has suffered through multiple knee injuries and it did not work out trying to be a referee. DiBiase, Sr. told Phil Strum of the Poughkeepsie Journal it's been frustrating for Brett, but he has closure on his wrestling career after suffering numerous setbacks.

"When he realized he couldn’t wrestle without being in pain, well maybe we can go the referee route. Well, then we have a fourth knee surgery. I got to thinking about that and referees are actually up and down even more than wrestlers. Usually when we go down, we’re going down on our back. When they go down, they go down on their knees," DiBiase, Sr. said. "Brett will really officially be released at the end of this month. He’s come home now. He’s in great spirits. He’s sad that it hasn’t worked out for him. But on the same token, he was very frustrated and the frustration’s over. We got closure."
