WWE Confirms Return Of Million Dollar Championship
WWE has confirmed the return of the iconic Million Dollar Championship – with Ted DiBiase himself unveiling the title on NXT as the Hall of Famer delivered a “priceless” announcement.
The final stop before NXT TakeOver: In Your House saw DiBiase set the stage for the clash between Cameron Grimes and LA Knight by making the bout a Ladder Match for the Million Dollar Championship.
The pair have been involved in a heated rivalry in recent weeks as each man bids to be the one to carry on the legacy of The Million Dollar Man.
This Sunday at #NXTTakeOver, @CGrimesWWE & @LAKnightWWE will climb the ladder for THIS!

It had previously been noted that Ted DiBiase was being advertised to appear at NXT TakeOver: In Your House.
Now the Hall of Famer will officially pass the torch to either Cameron Grimes or LA Knight as the title belt,which he created after failing to buy the WWF Championship with red tape putting the kibosh on any legitimacy surrounding his short reign, is up for grabs this Sunday.
There is no word as of yet what the future of the Million Dollar Championship will be after NXT TakeOver: In Your House, or whether it will be recognised by WWE as an official Championship this time round.
