Should Dustin Rhodes have been given a world title reign somewhere in his career? Let us know in the comments below!

[@josephfarrior6715]

Yes

[@gtthepesprofessor1986]

100%

[@brainman3387]

Indeed.

[@Leveled2586]

The tourette's came so naturally at 2:49 suddenly I'm transported back to 2003 watching Goldust lose his composure.

Dustin Rhodes is a national treasure. Pretty incredible that he (and Cody, for that matter) were able to overcome the shadow of The American Dream and be their own men.

Let’s hope WWE Acknowledges Dustin Rhodes enough to induct him into the WWE HOF in 2025, or sooner than later.

[@LordZaayl]

It'll happen pretty much the moment he isn't signed to AEW anymore. We'll have to see what way the wind blows this fall when his contract is up.

[@jonathanturbide2232]

It's not a WWE decision, it's a Dustin decision. As soon as he's no longer with AEW he's going to get an induction 200%, not only because Cody is tight with HHH/Rock but also because HHH/Rock themselves have a lot of respect for Dustin as a performer. So it's up to Dustin, he should leave AEW and continue his dad's work in NXT.

[@slashersweeney4728]

RVD was inducted and he was still with aew ​@@LordZaayl

[@marcpower4167]

​@slashersweeney4728 I don't think he was under contract with them then, I think he was on a pay per appearance deal.

[@johnhenry4228]

One of the most underrated wrestlers in wrestling. Would’ve loved him rather lose to Razor at 96 Rumble and have him eventually beat Shawn for the belt and those two have the match at Rumble 97.

[@rajakghosh6602]

It was hilarious af and also funny how he got it by being thrown into an electrical circuit board. There was a segment with Hunter and Fair with Gold dust where both Hunter and Flair kept on breaking character with Golddust's antics.

[@thetragicpope]

They weren’t breaking character. They were meant to laugh.

[@michaelmercury1297]

I like the interview Goldust did on Howard Stern. It was so funny.

[@TheJoe99316]

I was there for this as a kid we were sitting to where we could see the backside of the entrance ramp. Taker was on his bike waiting to do his entrance for the map. My brother and I kept shouting deadman. He actually heard us and acknowledged us with a raised fist in the air. One of my favorite child hood memories after the last match the spinaroonie shenanigans took place truly glad I was there in person.

[@jmmyky]

I give all the money to see to see Goldust come back to WWE and do the tourettes gimmick towards the younger talent today. We also maybe see Golden Truth as a tag team again 😅

[@GilesArt]

Kenny dying throughout the interview makes it 10 times funnier. (err, it is Kenny, isn't it? He's such a good interviewer that I hardly know who he is!)

[@Darragh1]

I love how the presenter drinks water at the wrong time and chokes on it laughing hahaha.

[@BrokeWorks]

I never cared for the goldust Tourette’s gimmick but the trolling people in public with it is actually quite hilarious

[@rtyuik7]

2:35(ish) - i love the "Yes, And" energy here, the way the question is carefully worded ("i know its a bit Personal..."), just for Dustin to toss a couple of Tics to the crowd ("what are you to-to-to-talking about??")...i mean, i cant speak for those with Actual Tourette's, but i really respect Dustin for his Commitment to the bit...in fact, that goes for the entirety of the Goldust character-- for a man to grope another man and practically striptease for everyone in the ring, and then come home to his otherwise-heterosexual life, AND this was back in the 90s...but he never Half-Assed the gimmick, it was ALWAYS full-steam...

[@feraleyedea9710]

The single most hilarious gimmick EVER. The WWE deserved a heavyweight champion with Tourette's.

I never associated Tourettes with that gimmick until today. I just thought it was a side effect of the electrocution and that's it.

[@justincombs7900]

This still makes me laugh lol

[@whooll]

So i, for some reason, never realized or ever thought this gimmick was him having tourretes. Like that comparison never came to mind. It reminded me more of like the animated sort of effect that Marv from Home Alone experienced after being electrocuted, or like the residual "shock" you'd see from a cartoon like Tom and Jerry would have. It really didn't seem like any actual real life issue someone would have since it occurred after Goldust didn't just die from being electrocuted lol Edit: still some of the funniest shit wrestling has ever given us lol thank the fucking son of a plumber for giving us Dustin lol

The f'd up things Vince made people do most certainly messed with their mental states. Punishing Perry Saturn with the moppy gimmick probably lead to his breakdown. Not defending what Perry did. He was not the only one guilty, but he was the only one punished. Kinda like curtain call, they always make a scapegoat.

@joefurious732 true, most things on public air are censored, but not pay networks like hbo, shotime, Cinemax etc or satellite radio. On youtube it doesn't need to be censored. If a channel has enough of a following they can have paid memberships similar to twitch or 3rd party like patreon or similar if they really need monetization. Or make their own ads for a 3rd party which can be really entertaining and far better than the usual ads youtube shows
