Cody Rhodes tells Dale Jr An Unheard Story About His Dad and Dale Earnhardt | Dale Jr Download

[@sportsgamingcentral4944]

never thought I’d see these two in a video together

[@colinjones4686]

Literally.

[@donnariccelli3538]

No kidding, huh??!! My grandson is a HUGE WWE fan. I'm a HUGE Nascar fan. This is something we can share! So cool!

[@MrLvbat]

So cool to see these rwo together. I remember watching Cody's dad and the 4 Horseman go at it,

[@Trans_girl_Christina]

Me too! It’s like two worlds colliding.

[@JohnnyPerth]

Wwe promotion

[@chrisdunlap9002]

NASCAR & Wrestling in one video! My childhood (and adulthood) is smiling big!

[@bb-gc2tx]

too bad they both arent as good from when we were kids

[@yojoeski]

Just watch NASCAR any weekend, you'll see WWE on a racetrack as that's pretty much what it's been since 2004.

[@furywanabemonky05]

​@@bb-gc2txcody is better now jr retired from full time in nascar

[@jeremyc9593]

@@furywanabemonky05 I think he meant NASCAR and wrestling aren't as good, not Cody and Jr.

[@dhackdaddymac]

I had to do a double take. These two together!?! Both came from such amazing dad backgrounds and lived up to the hype. Such a great combo to see together. Glad this happened

[@dianahanvey203]

I beg to differ Cody Rhodes about that warmth comment, September 11, 2023 Norfolk Scope it was my grandsons 11 birthday and you took his hand and said, I pray you have a wonderful birthday. That sir is deep warmth and he was so thankful you took a moment to talk to him. Bless you and your career. Mims❤❤

[@markfulwood7415]

Met Big Dust when I was 15 years old, almost 50 years ago...my absolute hero! Later he would come to the Florida State Fair, and hang out with us kids in the cattle barns, sit there for an hour, or two, just chopping it up, with The American Dream... incredible! I'm 64 now, and those memories will last forever... great video!

[@jerrywagner4690]

Okay I'm jealous ,used to be a huge fan when I was younger, I'm 63 Dusty did it all in wrestling and did it well!

[@jasonpruitt4491]

So much in common with Dale and Cody with legendary fathers

[@kaylapodelco5327]

I never thought I would see Cody Rhodes and Dale Jr together. This is so trippy but in a good way!

[@wev2344]

I never thought I’d see Dale Jr and Mike Tyson together either. But you know, people have all kinds of connections outside of their family and work.

[@j_e_hill]

I don’t follow wrestling at all, never have. But what a good guest and a really engaging guy to share a discussion with. I like these “outside” guests. Great work.

[@jesselatham7610]

Cody is about as good as it gets for a sit down discussion for wrestling and non wrestling fans, and it just so happens he’s damn good at wrestling

[@dominiccarranza2184]

The collab we didn't think we needed but we are thankful it happened

[@DeBa1226]

I could literally see the connect between Dusty taking to Dale. That rugged man, intimidator, show up and bring it, persona. Makes perfect sense.

[@Timmermon63]

There are many famous sons that should get together and chat. Very informative and entertaining.

[@rayscottakaLurch]

What an amazing interview from two sons who lived in their dads shadow. Absolutely amazing! Much respect to Dale Jr. and Cody.

[@Youdoxxikill]

*succeeded and stepped out of their dad's shadow

[@timgabbard7356]

I truly love the respect and love Cody always shows his daddy

[@InsignificantNick]

Magnum T.A. is so underrated. It's a shame his career was cut short.

[@elijahussery8727]

I was a big time Wrestling fan before I got into racing and to see these two together just makes it feel a lot better to have both sports interacting about there roots! This is inspiring!

[@troyturnipseed3548]

Dustin and I were neighbors back in the day.. It was always a blast seeing Dusty and Dustin out on the desk with the grill rolling smoke.

[@CM-gm3kc]

Back in 1986, me and a couple friends sat behind Melbourne Auditorium talking to Dusty. He was driving a red pickup. He kept asking me and my friend if we were interested in wrestling? I was 6'2 280 lb lineman trying for college football. I wish I would have taken him up on the offer! Dusty will always be my favorite!

[@Timertraveler4824]

This is a real cool colab... I think Junior should do more guest like this!! 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽

[@maudinerichardson3361]

The superstar sons of the Dream and Intimidator. I freaking love this!!!!!!

[@bevnracin]

Wow ! This was AWESOME ! I love Jr's face when Cody told him about his dad being a huge Dale Earnhardt fan . And he and Cody's mom were also big Fans of Jr and the Earnhardt Family. Great story about his birth 😁

[@mrwinston_thepug]

This is absolutely Amazing 🤘🏻 Cody Rhodes is just in his prime and about to be Champion of WWE

[@TheMarcusramsey]

Fingers crossed.

[@michaeldevault-edmondson1037]

I agree. Two childhood favorites sharing a screen makes it whole.

[@bs431980]

Should’ve already been champ

[@finnickrinzler8907]

Cody and Dale are so much alike.

[@joeadgie4188]

For whatever reason, it doesn't surprise me at all that Dusty was an Earnhardt fan. That's awesome to hear.

[@davidqueenan7852]

I'm a little bit losing my ever loving mind. When racin' and rasslin' come together, I can't stop smiling. Can't wait to listen to the whole cast. Great get Jr.!!

[@BigP1967]

This is great to have a guest on for a change who does something other than racing. Very nice interview.

[@tjlance7031]

In what world are these two guys on the same podcast. Dale Jr is the man.

[@williammitchell4417]

This cool. Dale JR and Cody. As the Late Dusty would say "We're making major motion pictures and Sitcoms Baby!!"

[@gothard5]

I was quite surprised when this episode popped up in my podcast app and I saw Cody Rhodes. I thoroughly enjoyed this episode.

[@russneversleeps8258]

I'd love to know just How good that made Jr feel to know Dusty Rhodes was a fan after growing up being a fan of his.

[@Nebraska93]

That was awesome!! Cody needs to come on the show more often

[@TheRealCheyenneBooth]

Racing and Wrestling were my life when I was a teenager. It was the only place I could escape from my messed up childhood, even if it was for a few hours, it was my escape, my hero’s were wrestlers and Dale Sr. I always say, ppl that are celebrities, whether it’s a athlete, or something else, have no idea who’s life they touch on a daily basis, and how much it can mean to a child, or to the person who is in a low place ❤

[@bighand1530]

I can get where you are coming from

[@emperorburton]

Love the cross-over with each having Southeast roots.

[@Mike-bk5yc]

NASCAR AND WWE never thought I'd see this ethier I second that

[@bf2945ify]

Great change of pace. Truly enjoyed this episode.

[@Chad-sp4hq]

Hands down or up, this is one of coolest podcast episodes I've seen anywhere. It's like at first mixing food together you don't think would taste good but it does.

[@superhoss95]

I think Jr. Has learned more about his father in these interviews and everything he had no idea about in his death than what he already knew if he was still alive. What if the dale Jr. download never existed and these stories never get told.

[@williammitchell4417]

It's kinda wild to say, "Hindsight's 20/20"

[@IRLangmaid25]

I think the best ones are when Jnr steps out of the NASCAR bubble such as Cody Rhodes and also Ned Yost is a great one as well

[@Billy-ot8mk]

Two of my favortie things coming together in NASCAR and Wrestling.

[@ItzMzJulez2U]

My goodness, I couldn’t love this more! NASCAR & Wrestling were my thing, and my entire reason we bought a VCR when they first came out, and were like $400, so I could record while at church! I remember when Magnum TA first appeared, and had Toby Keith hair back then. I had posters in my laundry room!😆 Cowboy Bill Watts, Ted DiBiase, JYD, Hacksaw Jim Dugan, Jake the snake, and Jim Ross announcer. Small time back then, no wrestlemania, no strobe lights and fog machines. Good memories.❤️ Thanks for this DJD episode.

[@SloppyHorrorPodcast]

Love seeing these two together!!! 🖤🖤🖤

[@aaronkelley4484]

Dusty Rhodes will always be my favorite wrestler! Dustin and Cody are in my top 10!

[@chipdamutt108]

"Baby Doll is a Jezebel off the streets" -Dusty Rhodes Back when wrestling was a must see for me.

[@kerrylaporte4674]

loved hearing that kid's story!

[@jordanspory7633]

My favorite wrestler and nascar driver in one video!

[@Allintn22]

If Dusty Rhodes and Dale Earnhardt SR wasnt apart of your childhood then your childhood sucked

[@dennisbowen452]

This is cool and unbelievable

[@Sully4Real]

I was at the show in Carrollton, Ga and I remember it like it was yesterday. Dusty was a great guy in and out of the ring!

[@kevinwiechmann787]

when two worlds collide both your fathers would be proud of the men you have become

[@IRLangmaid25]

I bet the pair of them are up there having a beer or two, going 'our boys have done alright aren't they?'

[@mrstyle_67]

I loved Dusty Rhodes! After the event in the Omni Atlanta Georgia, we waited for wrestlers to leave. So that night Dusty , Nikita Koloff and Jim Crockett got in a car and headed to the airport. We ran traffic lights and stop signs following them to a private jet access on the tarmac. We were hollering and carrying on with excitement.

[@giffer44]

The way he describes his Aunt doing all the work, at 12:45, and Dusty coming in with the HOT TAG! to save the day. 😂

[@malikdigger4544]

Having wrestling legend Rhodes & NASCAR The Earnhardt's is amazing segment know Dale Jr favorite wrestler Cody Rhodes.

[@Cocodream7]

Two guys with legendary fathers

[@FloridaManRacer]

I said last night before any content came out that this would be a great episode because It's two guys who can REALLY relate with each other in a lot of ways. They've both had to live under the shadow of a name, honor it, and carve their own paths at the same time. They both do a job not many 'normal' people can really understand, they both have the unenviable task of dealing with a ton of fans wanting their time and attention... This was one of those episodes that feel way out of left field but at the same time, makes perfect sense.

[@mikeross5820]

I watched his dad for year's, Now the American Nightmare running the show.Great job ,Jr and Staff.

[@jimmyhunt1499]

As incredible as it seeing these 2 together imagine seeing The American Dream and The Intimidator together!

[@chiefridgeway7158]

This was worth every minute. The American dream being a huge fan of the intimidator just blows me away. Raise hell praise dale! 🏁

[@tvngo85]

Cody is the first guest on the Download that is wearing a 3 piece suit or a suit in general.

[@cyollins86]

Cody still sporting a suit on the download. Lookin’ like he just finished a promo on Raw. 🔥

[@mcb2206]

I remember seeing Dusty in the old Richmond Arena (early 70's) before we even had the Richmond Coliseum. Still have magazines from then and ole newspaper ads of who was wrestling each week. Good memories.

[@howabouthetruth2157]

Me and all my buddies were big time pro wrestling fans when we were kids growing up in the late 60's/early 70's. Saw Dusty Rhodes in person wrestle several times back then. Dusty was one of our favorites. For people who never saw Dusty in person way back then, you have no idea of just how physically big he truly was. What a massive man. He wasn't very tall, but man, he was a true "wide glide". His shoulders were in 2 different time zones. Remember Tank Abbot from the UFC??? Dusty Rhodes in the early 70's would make Tank Abbot look like some average sized middle weight.

[@jeremyc9593]

Good athlete too. Just search "Dusty Rhodes basketball" here and you can see that he was pretty good even at that weight.

[@OverSeasonedTaco]

Always amazing to have someone from outside the sport talking

[@StickyShoes34]

Two of my favorite worlds colliding

[@natlparkdude]

Not many guys his age would even know who Frank Zane was. He he. Great interview.

[@racerjason2910]

I could listen to both Dale and Cody all day

[@JimmyC9]

Great show...... Evrybody forgets Billy Jack Haynes.. he starred in wrestle mania 3. Was a big part of the 80s... He remembers Cody running around the ring chasing his dad..... He told Dusty one day your youngest son Cody is gonna make it big when he gets older.

[@ghettostreamlabs5724]

Awesome!!! Love having different folks like Cody on the show...

[@JBBooks-qv2kp]

Junior should have Hank Williams Jr. on the show. Nobody could better understand Dale Jr better than the son of the Hank Williams. The legacies they have had to live under and yet become icons themselves.

[@maryharris4297]

I was at the wrestling show Cody was talking about and I was on my way home to Va when I heard about Dale Sr. Passing. Very said day. Cody would tape Dusty's show Cody is a very smart young man and a very good wrestler. ❤

[@darrelladams4188]

I wonder how more wrestlers are going to be invited on the Dale Jr download. Awesome to see Sting come on the show.

[@Hensley316]

Stone Cold was on Dale Jr. Download before COVID.

[@kristenwhite2701]

Everyone wants to be on the download. Jr makes NASCAR universal

[@BT-xm4cq]

I live in South Fl and went to Monday wrestling every Monday ! Dusty Rhodes was my guy I talked like him for all the kids in High School I met your dad Dusty, Dirt Dick Merdock, Mr Werstling # 1 & # 2 after the show at a PDQ they were in a big Caddy heading to Tampa for a show the next night I said in the Dusty words my mom was a plumber & hes started going back at me and I loved it. Man he was bigger than life to me those were the days !!! God bless Dusty Rhodes

[@Hesnotavalabe05]

My two favorite style of sit-down podcast talkers racing and wrestling this is the best show ever

[@toddgreim9254]

Dusty and Dale two of the greatest in my life time!

[@jjf1234]

Worlds clashing your both great!!

[@thebluecollarbadass9945]

Dusty brought me to wrestling as a child and now as an adult Cody has brought me back❤️🙏🏽✊🏽💯

[@jbcomrad]

This is awesome well done cody and dale

[@danhanson1614]

I remember watching him in Florida back in the 70s. He's was a great entertainer

[@Jeff.3]

In a way, dusty rhodes and dale sr are similar and cody is similar to jr. Dusty and sr were common men doing uncommon things. Both gifted at what they did. Cody and jr always had the expectation of being their sons and being compared to their dads.

[@zacharykelsey3156]

I vote for all the WWE guys to run an exhibition race and the nascar guys have to pair up and do cage matches.

[@LionManatic]

Carl Edwards returns for this one moment, then goes back to retirement, lol! x^D

[@zacharykelsey3156]

I would KILL to see Edwards v. Kenseth in a cage match@@LionManatic

[@LionManatic]

@@zacharykelsey3156 I'd honestly would love to see Edwards vs Harvick, when Harvick was young he did some form of mixed martial art. I can't remember if it was karate, wrestling, or what, but I can see that being a hell of a match lol!

[@jimmygiles1153]

Cody and Jr talkin...how cool. Cody, Dustin and Dusty...Wrastlin Royalty!

[@sjfarish]

WOW! Loved this interview.

[@dewayneamerson1179]

Dusty and Dale!!

[@toddgilbert2485]

I'm A Fan Of Both Racing,And,Wrestling So It's Awesome To Me To See This Episode!

[@BJWanlund]

Even *I* never liked Jeff Gordon. For me, Dale Sr was my favorite by a mile. After he died I really never went back to NASCAR again… so that anecdote about Dale Sr being Dusty’s favorite too, just gives me immeasurably more respect for him.

[@billwallenstein3387]

The American Dream Baby! Miss that Bionic Elbow

[@WhyIsGhostInTheArena]

I used to like NASCAR as a kid then stopped. I watched wrestling as a kid then stopped. I just recently started watching wrestling again and Cody is in my top 5 wrestlers. I remember Dale Jr from when I was a kid....maybe it's time to get back into NASCAR as well 🤔

[@thegonz7833]

Wow cool dude great story teller,👍
