Just heard about this.

 

Dusty is/was probably my favorite person to just listen to talk in the history of ever. I'm pretty much in shock right now.

 

I have the day off, I think I'm going to use it watching Dusty Rhodes promos.

 

:(

 

RIP The American Dream

Started another thread that can be deleted, but here's what I said. Will see if I have any more thoughts after work:

 

Triple H just tweeted that Dusty Rhodes has passed away. What a loss. I had the pleasure of meeting him last fall and he was sharp as a knife, incredibly gracious with his time to my wife and I and more than happy to share a few memories and stories from the past. He was also incredibly proud to have his daughter as his date that evening and they seemed to have a terrific time.

 

RIP to a true GOAT and best to his family.

Just absolutely the worst news. In recent times, the whole Rhodes Family vs. Shield/Authority feud was my favorite thing in 2013, and the payoff at Battleground was one of my favorite moments of the year. But he also had the greatest promo of all time. RIP to the Dream, and may he be dining with kings and queens in the great beyond.

Rest In Power, Dream. I didn't grow up watching him work, but his voice was a mainstay in my life thanks to his time announcing and occasionally getting in the ring in WCW. He, Tony Schiovane and Bobby Heenan were pretty funny sometimes in the booth, but could get over what was happening when it would get serious as well. Far from a perfect announcing team, but it fit what they were doing.

Saw Triple H's tweet pop up, and spent a while trying to work out what it meant, as the last thing I wanted to accept was that the Dream had died. Absolutely horrible news, one of the most magnetic personalities ever.

You know it is never a good thing to see "305 new tweets" in the span of 30 minutes but it just goes to show you what a true icon he was in wrestling and this business wouldn't be half of what it is now without him.

 

Somewhere in heaven there is a new bull of the woods and him and Murdoch are raising a ton of hell right now :(
