After a distinguished career in WWE, AEW, and multiple other promotions, Dustin Rhodes may finally be ready to hang up his boots and retire from the pro wrestling scene.

The veteran star has spent over 30 years in the business so far. Starting in the Tampa-based Championship Wrestling from Florida (CWF), he worked his way up WCW and WWE to become a household name as Goldust. He has also worked in Japan and TNA (now known as IMPACT Wrestling).

In a recent tweet, the 53-year-old expressed his woes regarding age and seemingly teased his retirement. He also stated how he has been thinking about his next step.

"Man, old age has caught up to me guys. As much as I push myself beyond my limits, I can honestly say, I am doing some heavy thinking about the next step. We all think we can go forever with new batteries, but TIME comes for all of us. Kinda scared tbh. #KeepSteppin," wrote Rhodes.
