#4 Dustin Rhodes

Dustin Rhodes, a.k.a. WWE's Goldust, is another AEW star with great matches. At 52 years old, Dustin can still fight with the best of them and was recently seen on Dynamite against Malakai Black. Moreover, he carries on a specific distinction, having wrestled across five decades in the 80s, '90s, '00s, '10s, and now the '20s.

Rhodes started his career in 1988 and has wrestled for WCW, AJPW, WWE, TNA/Impact Wrestling, and now AEW. While he may not have picked up many titles across his career, they are still note-worthy.

  • 2-time WCW US Champion
  • 2-time WCW World Tag Team Champion
  • 9-time WWE Hardcore Champion
  • 3-time WWE Intercontinental Champion
  • 3-time WWE World Tag Team Champion

But in WWE, Rhodes would be known for his most famous character, "the bizarre one" Goldust. Before the Attitude Era began, Goldust was a sign of things to come. His character was miles apart from others at the time, being presented as androgynous.

Thanks to his incredible delivery, the character fits a friendly family audience. His first match in AEW was at Double or Nothing 2019 against his brother, Cody. The match was heavily praised and received accolades.

In AEW, Dustin Rhodes as 'The Natural' is still tearing it up with younger talent. He regularly puts newbies over and supports them backstage. Let's wait and see what's next for Dustin.
