    Wrestlers to perform, then preach
    As a World Wrestling Federation superstar, former Omahan Ted DiBiase often would cackle after uttering his most popular catch phrase: "Everybody's got a price for the Million Dollar Man."
    Now an ordained minister, he has a new phrase:

    "You can't put a price tag on the Gospel of Jesus Christ."

    Now three pro wrestling legends - Sting plus the Road Warriors, Hawk and Animal - will join DiBiase in Omaha in a free outdoor wrestling event Saturday at the Liberty Christian Center, 5616 L St. Sting, who was born Steve Borden in Omaha, and the Road Warriors, also known as the Legion of Doom, will face local talent before they help DiBiase deliver his message to an expected crowd of more than 5,000.
