That’s never good to hear. There are a lot of people who work for a wrestling promotion besides just the people you see in the ring. In addition to the wrestlers, there are also the people who help train the wrestlers but rarely get that much attention. Some of those names are famous in their own right though and one such name was missing in action this week.
AEW star and trainer Dustin Rhodes announced that he would not be at this week’s Dynamite tapings in Savannah, Georgia as he was home sick. Rhodes did not specify what was wrong with him or suggest that he would be missing any additional time. In addition to wrestling, Rhodes works with the women’s division as a coach and trainer. His most recent match took place on the July 1 edition of AEW Rampage.
Not at #AEWDynamite #FyterFest tonight as I am super sick at home. Y'all tune in to @TBSNetwork at 8/7 central. @AEW

Opinion: That doesn’t sound great but hopefully he is back at work sooner rather than later. Rhodes is one of the most interesting wrestlers going today as he has been doing this for well over thirty years and is having some of the best matches of his career. That is not something almost anyone else can say and yet Rhodes is making it work every time he is out there.
What do you think of Rhodes? Who would you like to see him face? Let us know in the comments below.
