WWE Hall of Famer “The American Dream” Dusty Rhodes recently sat down with Joey Styles and John Clapp of WWE.com to talk about his sons, Cody Rhodes and Goldust, and their capture of the WWE Tag Team Championship belts on the latest edition of Monday Night Raw.
Rhodes talks about the excitement level during the match, saying,
“It was one of the best matches on WWE television in years. Those fans had been there for almost four hours. To hear them go from zero to reach a climax and chant ‘This is awesome!’ was a memorable moment. I tried to teach Cody that memorable moments are special and you have to make them whenever you can.”
Rhodes goes on to talk about his sons’ talent, experience, and love for what they do, saying,
“On Team Rhodes, Cody is the young prince and Dustin is the iconic figure. Dustin is better than he’s ever been. Cody now gets to mirror and travel with Dustin. To get an education from a great in-ring performer who is also a cult character is rare. To have that teacher happen to be your brother is an amazing learning process.
They laugh with each other and are having fun. Cody told me today that he’s having fun and that’s the first time he has said that. He’s a workaholic and has always worried about everything from a business perspective.
For the great ones, nothing else matters when they walk through the curtain but entertaining the fans. That’s important for entertainers. Both Cody and Dustin are at that point now, together.”
