I can't think of anyone else who wrestled for the NWA, WWE, WCW, ECW, TNA, and ROH. A wrestling troubadour, if you wheel.

I know I've told this story hundreds of times, but I'm telling it again. I am almost certain Dusty Rhodes was my driving instructor. I lived in Austin in 2004, and Dusty wasn't wrestling for anyone at the time. I didn't know what Dusty Rhodes looked like at the time, since I wasn't that big into wrestling then, but looking back, it was clearly Dusty Rhodes.

Put yo foot on the gath in the afterlife, Dusty.

Few men can say that they've given basically everything to professional wrestling. Dusty Rhodes is one of those men. Wrestling fans lost a legend.

For better or worse, my favorite Dusty memories revolve around his bonkers WCW commentary, this being my favorite example:

Was the original booker for the current incarnation of NXT, and was booking FCW for a long time too.

Don't worry. Dusty Rhodes will be ruled alive tomorrow, when it is determined that today's coroner was not the legal coroner.
