I tell this story often. I'm mixed; black/white. My Father, who's black, started getting into wrestling around 1977/1978. Now my Dad was born and raised in north eastern Alabama, about 30 miles outside of Huntsville. They didn't have cable so they didn't get to watch a lot of wrestling back then, but they could listen to the radio broadcasts and hear the Wrestler's promos/interviews and the color commentary. My Dad, his brothers, and friends believed, from 1977-1984, that Dusty Rhodes was a black man; based solely on his cadence and the way he sounded while speaking. In 1984, my Father and his brothers saved their money and were able to get tickets to their first live wrestling event in GA. They didn't realize Dusty was white until he came out to the ring and the ring announcer introduced him. He always says, "You'd think that would've bummed us out, right? Nope, it made us even bigger fans because that's when we learned that there were white people who were like us!". I love that story. ✌🏾✌🏾👍🏾👍🏾

[@pleaseshutup7053]

Dusty definitely a brotha I seen that video of him on the internet at a charity basketball game dude was a hooper

[@syko2695]

Ngl when you said "I' mixed; black/white" my brain went to you being Michael Jackson 😅

[@chrischar9428]

​@ENT Broadcast Corporation he was original hip hop

[@maxxdahl6062]

Awesome story, did he ever hear Gary Hart speak? I don't know how I'd describe Gary, almost SORT of like dusty, but maybe a bit more smooth and a bit more Chicago.

[@goodday2760]

Cool story, until the NWO-made 'diverse' hand icon.

[@serristori]

Hearing Brian Last mention he hadn't heard the Hard Times promo til 2004, makes me grateful for having seen it at first broadcast in 1985. Wow. Crockett was right. It was about grown people fighting for important things.

[@elc1960]

Dusty's widow Michelle was great on the WWE DVD The American Dream: The Dusty Rhodes Story. She comes right out and says she felt the polka dots were a rib by Vince on Dusty, but she has a sense of humor about it and isn't pissed, just very good-natured. Meanwhile Bruce Prichard is content to just take the company line and kiss Vince's ass while Michelle shoots straight. Good lady.

[@zagan1]

She also says he came up with it. No one in WWF didn't know why he wanted to wear it, it was probably his way of keeping the American dream locked away from the WWF at the time and they didn't get it. That was his money maker and he controlled everything with it. Run a completely different thing and they can't use the American dream or run some idea around it

[@paulheap1982]

@zagan1 yet he was still called the American dream in WWF and it was even in his theme.

[@sugartbube]

Dusty was that uncle from the south that was hip enough that he fit right in the black neighborhood and be welcome and fit in right away. Dusty had a universally appeal AND he could play freaking basketball. He looked like "us" he sounded like "us" everyone loved him

[@paulellington1505]

Dusty was the original common man wrestler. His connection to the people was unparalleled. He was the perfect opponent for the Nature Boy Ric Flair the rich elitist pretty boy. Nobody will ever get over with as many groups of people as Dusty did. A true legend of the business.

[@terminallumbago6465]

I think what made Dusty so great at the “common man” persona was because he actually seemed to be an everyman. He didn’t have a bodybuilder physique, by all accounts he wasn’t into the hard partying a lot of other wrestlers were doing, he seemed like a family man behind it all.

[@Mandrahale]

This was an excellent documentary. I was surprised how great it was. The emotional reactions by Cody & Dustin was beautiful. Dusty’s larger than life persona was must see television. His promos were always top notch. His in ring work was amazing. It was a heartfelt love letter to Dusty. A+.

[@mitzicarpenter2820]

Well said I love the end of your comment,beautiful and perfect way to put it!

[@distantandvague]

I love listening to Dustin talk about Dusty because you can feel the emotion of his words, and how their relationship wasn't always great, but Dustin loved him and I know Dusty loved him too.

[@jennaraeblake8155]

Between 86 & 89 I got to see Dusty live maybe half a dozen times in DC and Baltimore with Crocket/NWA. Man, what a showman. He was the GOAT of the people. Miss those days a hell of a lot. RIP Dusty. You were the best.

Jim is right so much tragedy in wrestling more than other industries it was nice fit change to hear a good story

[@oN3xShOtxkilL]

There’s not a day I don’t miss dusty Rhodes, my father would watch ric vs dusty any time Jim Crockett was on when he was younger and then when I was getting older and watching NWO on WCW he would sit there and watch it and be like “this isn’t wrestling” and he would turn it off and show the wrestling programs he collected and talked about that feud being his favorite .. Best part was my father came from the working class and worked his hands all his life and still does, while I wanted to be ric flair.. RIP Dusty

[@ck_idgaf1680]

This was a great doc, having all the rhodes (runnels) family involved was great and dusty's wife did a good job expressing his feelings at those times.

[@KingGhidorah5464]

[@garyhen2028]

I told you all, codys chase means more.

[@TheeCoachg]

Dusty Rhodes and Paul Heyman are two guys who can code switch with Kayfabe so well that the line is ALWAYS blurred. Even in that last interview,Dusty was still not “exposing the business”,he was so charismatic.

[@goodday2760]

CODE SWITCH GUYS CODE SWITCH!!! FREAKING GENIUS OVER HERE!

[@terminallumbago6465]

And ironically, according to Dusty’s Wikipedia page, Paul Heyman was the very last person Dusty was able to have a conversation with in his final moments (idk if they got Paul on the phone or what the situation was).

[@InvisibleHotdog]

[@BruhNut]

WWE legends , Jim Cornette

[@jameslonano5659]

I got to meet Dusty several times over the years and once got to sit next to him on a plane ride to St Louis. He was such a nice guy in person and loved discussing his career with an average fan like me. As a kid, I remember seeing that famous 1979 Wrestling magazine cover with Dusty on the cover with the best crimson mask I've ever seen. To us kids, he was our very first wrestling hero. We spoke like Dusty, gave each other the elbow years before Hulkamania. He was a god. Thank the lord for the NWA , Georgia Championship Wrestling and later Crockett's Mid Atlantic during this time frame so we could catch real wrestling on TBS. We got to see Dusty, Fair, Arn and Ole Anderson, Tommy Rich, Corny and the express, Steamboat, the road warriors, Barry Windham and list goes on and on. Just my opinion but this 1979-1989 timeframe was just a great time to be a fan of wrestling and the NWA. And a bonus that he put on great NXT shows in Florida, groomed a solid generation of talent.

[@RopeDrink]

The Dustin & Cody vs Roman & Rollin's match (with Ambrose, Big Show & Dusty) was awesome, and the crowd loved it. Ironically, Cody pinned Roman to become Tag Team Champion, and now, we've just had the two of them again at Wrestlemania.

[@knoxville6155]

Regardless of the result, I bet dusty would've loved seeing his own son and one of the kids he developed main eventing wrestlemania.

[@G.Martinez916]

"When I saw Babydoll riding off with Floyd I thought to myself she must be heck of a rider, and I found out later she was a heck of a rider"

[@juliolopez6289]

Dropped my weed laughing at Jim's response to the mere thought of Dusty having to take orders for Johnny Ace.

[@prestonpfeiffer]

This was amazing! I’ve watched it twice already. Dusty truly was one of kind and its crazy how he isnt in the discussions of GOAT as he should be. You can hear the love in Jim’s voice just talking about him and how much he pushed for the Midnights. Cody and Dustin were great here.

[@Shin-Blade]

He is in the GOAT talks!

[@mitchellbaker9434]

Dusty did what he did with that body. What more needs to be known about how talented he was? A true genius of the craft.

[@jordan_8329]

The best Dusty promo is when he asks if he can be Dustin's tag team partner. Very emotional moment.

[@davidcook3116]

Stephanie is so full of it here. Dusty facepalming her not only took him off TV but it most likely is why Cody became a perennial jobber.

[@bayoustormryder3823]

My grandmother was a huge fan of Dusty. She loves to hear him talk to dancing. There will never be another American Dream Dusty Rhodes. Keep dancing and cutting those priceless promos in Heaven.

[@johnt6773]

This biography hit indescribably hard for me, growing up with a bit of a broken family with lots of love it absolutely tore me up inside to see Cody and Dustin be so raw, but also hear all the different perspectives from each kid and how varied they were despite all knowing and loving their father. Dusty is undoubtedly the American Dream, and I am so glad they did this biography so damn perfect.

[@toma.4808]

Dusty really was the people's champion. He spoke their language, while he didn't have a wrestlers body, he had charisma, he could move well in the ring. Dustys appeal to me was the nwa/wcw version of hulkamania. This was a great bio.

[@adamlane6453]

Dressed like them? Yes. Spoke like them? Dusty spoke like no one else. Which is why when someone does an impression of him, even a bad impression, you know exactly who they're imitating.

[@toma.4808]

@Adam Lane I meant that he spoke the language of the common man. They(fans) could relate to him

[@JohnRigby5011]

This one hit me in the feels a little. I grew up watching the attitude era, so unfortunately I never got to watch Dusty live and in person. He's most definitely one of my favs that I wished I got to witness live.

[@scypsylock9402]

It reminded me how much wrestling was real back then. The cheers, the boos, the emotion, all real feelings we had back then which made wrestling a real thing. Dusty made that feeling into genuine emotion that reached out to us through the television sets and into our hearts. He was an athlete as well as showman and he knew how to hand feed the fans just by doing the smallest thing such as a twinkle of the eye and when we saw it he knew and we knew what it meant. He was the "it" factor and often imitated, never duplicated.

[@LanceJ.]

As a relatively younger Dusty fan, I always loved his promo on The Road Warriors for coming after his eye. “My fire, my lighting bolt, my thunder!”

[@AFCole-uu3rv]

Jim needed to do whole review in Dusty voice if y’weeeeel

[@TheeCoachg]

Crazy that Terri Runnels would make Dustin choose between his wife(& child) and his father. Makes me think she was in favor of all those weird storylines where she was Brian Pillman’s sex slave and Goldust was just all over the place smh

[@johnnygrind77]

As a kid growing up in the Northern Atlantic area, I only knew Polka Dot Dusty and Sweet Sapphire, so it's always great to see older footage that was and still is WAY better than the WWF days. My friends and I were fans of him nonetheless, but I woulda really loved Hard Times Dusty much more.

[@kenjones2182]

The reason Dusty and Steve Austin got over so well is because they represented the common man. The working man. Everyone dreams of being able to walk up to their boss, take a shit on his desk, walk out, and never have to work again. Dusty stuck it to rich boy Flair, and Austin stuck it to the big bad McMahon. As long as professional wrestling exists, that gimmick will never sour. For my money, one of the greatest gimmicks in wrestling history because EVERYONE can relate to it. If I can kick the shit out of my boss and tell him to kiss my ass, but you can... Brother, I'll be right there cheering you on and praying for the day when I'm able to.

[@MrParker-ux2mh]

By far my favorite WWE biography. Dusty was my favorite wrestler throughout the 80s. He made you root for him EVERY SINGLE TIME because he was sooooooo authentic!! Back then, before the curtain call ruined wrestling, you couldn’t figure out why the horsemen weren’t in handcuffs for breaking Dusty’s arm on the truck…..Dusty sold LIKE NO OTHER. And honestly, it was refreshing to know that I never knew Dusty HATED the goldust character until that doc! Dusty kept his disdain for goldust private for the sake of his entrained son (imho). What a great man!!

What an amazing Biography on "The American Dream" Dusty Rhodes. This episode had me in tears while bringing back wonderful memories of Dusty's career. JCP from 1984 thru 1988 was my favorite time being a wrestling fan and Dusty was right in the thick of it. The "Hard Times" promo is one of the greatest of all-time. The only thing that bummed me out after watching the episode was the omission of Dusty's feud with Tully Blanchard. Their on and off feuds from 1984 thru 1988 is legendary. Their matches, the stipulations, the gimmicks, the finishes, the championships and the money on the line deserved some space or reference because it was just as good as Flair's in my opinion. RIP Big Dust! We miss you!!
