CM Punk, Eden Stiles, Steve Austin, The Rock, Foley, Sheamus, Christian, Wyatt, Cena and Many More All Remember Dusty Rhodes

By Nick Paglino

The following are more social media reactions to the death of Dusty Rhodes:

 

I first met Dusty Rhodes at 5yrs old when me and my family were spending time with him and his family on their ranch. This man would become not only a great inspiration and mentor to me, but more importantly inspire and entertain wrestling fans around the world by becoming one of the greatest of all time. Dusty’s epically entertaining “Bionic elbow” was my inspiration to create “The most electrifying move in sports entertainment – The People’s Elbow”. This Heavyweight World Champion personified the blue collar fighting spirit and his influence on the wrestling business is invaluable. I’ll be forever grateful for the tremendous influence he’s had on me and my career in our beloved squared circle. Miss and love you Dusty.. RIP brother. #HardTimesDaddy #SonOfAPlumber #BadDudeInTheGame #TheAmericanDream
