Eric Bischoff, Jim Cornette, Jim Ross and Bill Goldberg all reflect on Dusty Rhodes.
These interviews were filmed exclusively at New England Fan Fest 5 (2015)
Jim Cornette has real affection for Dusty. Listening to him talk about Dusty is always nice. He has a lot of reverence for The Dream. RIP Dusty, you were a big part of my childhood and we will all miss you!
We named our youngest son, Dusty, after Dusty Rhodes. He is surely missed
Poor JR lost his Wife and Best Friend. But its Cool to see Dustys Kid. Cody giving back and setting JR up to be Commentator again.
When I was listening to JR I was like "man it takes someone dying for JR to not somehow find a way to mention football" aaaaaaand then he still mentions football. LOL!
Indeed, & definitely props to Cody. He's making Dusty proud every day. I nearly cried watching the Cody v Dustin match a while back.
Jim Ross, the most honest and appreciated. Your comments are true to heart. I believe. I'm missing him too
Dusty brought up John Wayne n the Hard Times promo
He spelled words like he said them..... LOve it
Big Mike agreed
" Hard times " brought to you by the American Dream Dusty Rhodes. Gone but not forgotten.
"risty bidnez, haard times, pain blues and agony...livin on dee edge of duh lightnin bolt Jack ..if you will..if you will!!!". Arguably the best mike skills of his day (gotta throw Flair in the mix) and an astronomically charismatic performer..largely quotable..I will forever miss getting up in NC on a Saturday mornin and watchin "rasslin" all day. I COULD NOT WAIT TO HEAR WHAT THE DREAM HAD TO SAY!! Stellar.. absolutely stellar!!!
Ditto for me, man. Honestly, I don’t miss that many things from my formative years in NC since graduating college and moving away 30 years ago, but hearing The Dream speak on Saturdays is definitely one. 😭
I still use the phrase pain, blues and agony to this day.
"The dream baby"...the greatest wrestler OF ALL TIME!
In the seventies the rest of the world had Muhammad Ali and Howard Cosell, but in Tampa we Dusty Rhodes and Gordon Solie
Can confirm Dusty was beloved worldwide as well. He'd always sell out the venues when he'd wrestle in Australia. So much so, when wrestling in Festival Hall in Melbourne, Cody spoke about his dad wrestling there in the 70s.
Great verbal tribute from jim Cornette, JR and Eric B!
I wish there was a love button for this. I would mash it a thousand times. He was my hero, by far. Saw him in Atlanta at the CNN tower in the mid 90's. Sitting in an office waiting on a phone call. I walked by, and said to myself, wow, that's Dusty. Walked back by and he waived at me, I waived back, of course. To this day, I wish I'd have walked in there and shook his hand. I'm sure he wouldn't have cared.
I miss dusty Rhodes myself
Great commentary on a great great person The America Dream Dusty Rhodes
Dusty will always be remembered
Love Jim Ross and think that his analogy is 100% perfect. MISS THE DREAM!!! Luv ya big Dust!
During theses hard times it some how brings comfort for me to listen to the hard times promo. I am sure most people will think that's silly but it helps me. The American dream will live forever!!! God bless you all.
I have a world of respect for Dusty and good ol JR. And they earned every bit of it. I am pulling hard for JR after I heard about his cancer diagnosis.
I would love 2 see a Dusty txt msg
Dusty Rhodes may be dead, but the AMERICAN DREAM lives on.
The Man of The Hour, Too Sweet To Be Sour, The Meanest, The Baddest, The Bull Of The Woods If You Will R.I.P. Big Dusdt
I get a kick out of the old wrestling guys wear sunglasses inside. It’s the cool thing to do.
Rest In peace American Dream Dusty Rhodes

Dusty was a genious
To this day miss ya Big Dust.
Beautiful words from all of his friends!
A great legend will be missed but not forgotten.

Miss the world outa Dusty watched him ass a kid all the way to the end of his run R.I.P Dusty.
One of the all time greats on the mic too. Along with "Stone Cold" Steve Austin and The Rock 😓
Rest in Peace "Dream" Always..
There not gonna ever be somebody like Dusty in the ring or that can talk on a mic. Dusty was the best on the mic.
I will never forget seeing Dusty wrestle in Kansas City with my great aunt Emma…..rip to them both!
God I miss dusty so much
He may not have looked the part of a muscle bound guy,but as Dusty once said, baby I'm bad and they know I'm bad.
I would love to see those text messages in Dustinese
One of the greatest wrestling performers all time. Top 10 impo. Who could get over a polka dot onesie? Al Snow got over a head. Alexa Bliss got over a coffee cup and a doll. But neither stayed on top for along as the dream.
Being a Georgia boy born in 1975 with the superstation TBS I had 2 heroes, The American Dream and Dale Murphey. I haven't watched wrestling in years but the day Dusty died this now 41 year old man cried like a kid
Dusty. Rhodes,. The. Real. American. Dream. Rip. Dust.
It will nevah be ovah!!!
Dusty Rhodes will forever be remembered..... one of the greatest RIP jolly fella
Only 1 American dream
Simply put... Dus'tae Knue Da Biz' ness !!! Long live the memories :)
Growing up a teenager in 1980s Baltimore, l had what l thought was the best of both worlds. There was the glitz and glamour of the WWF, and there was the sheer athletic talent of the NWA, specifically Jim Crockett Promotions and Mid-Atlantic Championship wrestling. Was Big Dust the best wrestler on the card? Of course not. Was there a more athletic 280-300 pound man in wrestling? HELL NO. What Dusty did was make you believe. Believe in him, and believe that Ric Flair was gonna get his ass handed to him the next time Dusty got a hold of him. When l was about 16 or 17, l had the tremendous honor of being granted a 1 on 1 interview with Dusty for my school newspaper, and 1 of the questions l asked him was how easy (or difficult) it was to separate the wrestling business from real life. What he told me quite simple, but at the same time, not something you would normally think about. He told me that even though Dusty Rhodes made the money, Virgil Runnels still had to pay the bills. That's what l miss most about The Dream...he was a real person. The character didn't stray too far from the man. R.I.P Dream...Gone, but NEVER forgotten.
great stuff guys
1:30-2:20 Hearing JC go on about Dusty got me genuinely misty eyed.
I wonder if bischoff and cornette ever ran into each other .
they were 2 tables away from each other at this event.
and now they are on wwe table for 3
CONTRARY TO WHAT JIM ROSS HAD TO SAY - DUSTY RHODES WAS THE BEST WRESTLER IN THE WORLD ! 3 TIME N.W.A. WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION / 2 TIME N.W.A. WORLD TAG TEAM CHAMPION / 2 TIME N.W.A. WORLD TELEVISION CHAMPION / N.W.A. UNITED STATES HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION / N.W.A. SOUTHERN HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION / ETC..... JIM ROSS YOU ARE IN ERROR !
Dusty was the best!
Tew beeduhman yewgahduh beetuhman
Rip dusty ol school rassssler
i feel like every time bischoff opens his mouth shit falls out....
Aw!
JR is the best commentator of all time.
I skipped he goldberg part
Hard Timeth!
I want to meet and talk to corny about wrestling. Get educated
Jim Cornette smh when he love u, that's it
Dusty died the same day John Wayne died.
Fate voi la traduzione...rivoglio il wrestling di una volta...Hunter Hamsley tocca a te...
Bischoff is probably lying like always. I never could stand him or Jim Coronette but Dusty was my all time favorite.
Wtf is it with Jr and America in general and this worship of John Wayne? He's an actor and not a great one either but he's treated and talked on like a legit war hero... strange folk.
His characters he played can be related to alot of events in someones life story
Nice tributes rip dusty on other another note how spooky is it when JR gets interviewed here CM Punks cult of personality is playing in the background 6 years before they are in the same company in AEW lol
That's a great point there haha!
so many legends from the 80's and early 90's
