The former Goldust and Rhodes family member Dustin Rhodes has had an incredible career and at age 51, he's still going in AEW. Following an incredible match against his brother at Double or Nothing, Cody and Dustin teamed up to take on The Young Bucks at Fight for the Fallen.

Dustin officially signed with AEW in August of 2019 as a wrestler and a coach. Rhodes has an intense feud with Jake Hager before being apart of the AEW TNT Championship Tournament, where he lost to Lance Archer in the semifinals. Rhodes would challenge Mr. Brodie Lee for the AEW TNT Championship in September of 2020, but again would lose.

After the aforementioned match against Shawn Spears at Double or Nothing, Rhodes began teaming with QT Marshall, making them "The Natural Nightmares". Rhodes and Marshall did get an AEW Tag Team Championship match against then-champions Kenny Omega and Adam Page but were unsuccessful.

Despite two championship matches, Dustin has yet to hold gold in AEW, but that's not a horrible thing. Dustin has captured the hearts of the AEW fans and seems to get great reactions from the fans in attendance (as little as there is). Even though he's 51 years old, he's still giving his all in AEW, and it's a beautiful thing to see.

7. PAC (AEW career record: 9-6-1)

PAC, then known as Neville, was one of those WWE Superstars that many felt would benefit heavily from signing with AEW. PAC had tremendous in-ring ability and showed signs of greatness in the WWE with his Cruiserweight Championship run. But once WWE booked PAC to lose his title to Enzo Amore, it was pretty much all downhill from there.

Following his departure from WWE and a brief appearance in Dragon Gate, PAC was announced as one of AEW's first signees and was set to face Adam Page at the inaugural AEW Show Double or Nothing. However, citing "creative differences", PAC pulled out of the match.

At All Out 2019, PAC replaced Jon Moxley in a match against Kenny Omega, which he won. After a loss to Adam Page, PAC began a feud with Kenny Omega, which ended with a 30-minute Iron Man Match on Dynamite, which the former lost in sudden-death overtime.

After a fantastic match with Orange Cassidy at Revolution, Pac created a stable with Rey Fenix, and Penta El Zero M called The Death Triangle. However, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the stable was never really able to get off the ground. PAC returned on an episode of Dynamite, setting up a feud with Eddie Kingston, with Penta and Fenix seemingly being caught in the middle.
