AEW star Dustin Rhodes breaks silence after capturing major title
As noted, the 55-year-old star captured the ROH World Six-Man Tag Team Champions alongside Von Erichs at the Battle of the Belts XI. This is the first major championship he won after stepping foot in Tony Khan's company.
In an exclusive clip, Dustin Rhodes said he never thought he would hold the ROH World Six-Man Tag Team Title while standing alongside Von Erichs.
"Guys, I’m going to be honest with you for just a second. This is a surreal moment for me. I’m 55 years old and I’ve been doing this a long, long time — 36 years. I promise you this from the bottom of my heart I can say this: I had no idea this is very special because the two families we have here, the Von Erichs and the Rhodes, I never in a million years thought I would be standing here with the Von Erichs in the ring and win six-man gold," the AEW legend said.
It will be interesting to see the next opponent for the newly crowned trio.
