Virgil, or Mike Jones as he’s known in real life, has a degree in mathematics and went back to teaching as a substitute teacher in Pennsylvania not long after his wrestling career was over. So what happened to him once the spotlight wore off? Virgil was one of the early meddlers that swung the match in the favor of his “employer” quite often, and led the way for future sidekicks in the business. His stint with Ted Dibiase, the Million Dollar Man, was legendary, and helped to keep him in the limelight for some time to come. A lot of people loved or hated or loved to hate him during his tenure in the WWE, which was still the the WWF back then. Virgil had a chance to be somebody in the ring but for some reason he never got the final push he needed to be anyone but an add-on.
Some of them get lucky and get promoted to full time spots on the roster and therefore become their own person. Sidekicks don’t always last all that long in the WWE.
