The belt he had on SmackDown had his name on it, but it wasn't outlined in black but it was still gold, making it hard to make out. You can make it out in this picture:

Dean has REALLY bulked up. Even in his last days in FCW, he was looking kinda gangly. But he's filled the gently caress out.

Bruce and Michael are half brothers and never even met until they were both adults. Bruce makes pretty good money with his own announcing gigs and is also a reasonably successful pro poker player on the side; I don't think he needs Michael's cash.

Bruce has been the UFC announcer for almost 20 years. While he doesn't have the same amount of fame and fortune (or a trademarked catchphrase) he does well enough on his own. Michael's "Let's Get Ready to Rumble!" is mirrored in the MMA community by Bruce's "It's TIME!!"

I'm actually quite envious of the Orlando development. I've lived in Orlando since I was 12, went to a backyard-Pine Hills Wrestling school (that means Super-Ghetto), lost a tooth in the whole affair and now that I'm an old arse man they open a WWE wrestling school in my hometown...what a crock
