5 WWE legends whose children were released by the company 

#3. WWE Hall of Famer "The American Dream" Dusty Rhodes

Dusty Rhodes left quite the legacy in WWE after his career came to an end, and was even able to go on to become part of the NXT setup to help several of the company's current superstars.

Rhodes had a hand in many of the star's careers, including his own children Cody and Dustin. Throughout the Attitude Era, Dustin was known as Goldust and was one of the characters who truly pushed the envelope at that time.

Cody Rhodes joined the company much later and was able to become a popular star with the WWE Universe whilst never truly being able to flourish.

Rhodes made the decision to leave WWE in 2016 when he asked for and was granted his release. His half-brother Dustin Rhodes requested his release from WWE in 2019 and was granted it, this was Rhodes' sixth departure from WWE and ended his six-year tenure with the company.

Both children of Dusty Rhodes are now currently part of All Elite Wrestling, alongside Cody's wife Brandi.
