Dustin Rhodes makes it official that he will retire next year.
Dustin Rhodes is undoubtedly a wrestling legend. At this time he already has 34 years of experience in the ring and has gone through companies such as WWE, WCW, TNA, NJPW and now he will end his career at All Elite Wrestling, a company to which he has belonged since its creation in 2019. The Rhodes name comes with a lot of pressure due to the strong legacy left behind by their father, Dusty Rhodes, and both Dustin and Cody have taken it upon themselves to keep it alive.
After a long career and after having hinted at it in previous interviews, Dustin Rhodes has announced that he will officially retire from wrestling in 2023. He confirmed it this Saturday at the recordings of Blizzard Brawl, a show that can be seen next year on Premier Streaming Network .
