Dustin Rhodes responded to social media criticism regarding his decision to remain with AEW. The wrestler addressed negative comments directed at the company through a message on Twitter/X.
When you stop paying attention to people (IWC) and their hatred for a company, your life improves. Block and move on. For every good thing said about you, there will always be a hater, and they are the loudest.
After a fan suggested a potential WWE return, Rhodes clarified his stance.
No. Why? Goldust did everything you can imagine. Happy to have had the character and taken it places some only dream of. Goldust is retired. 1000% the happiest I’ve ever been, here in AEW.
Rhodes signed a multi-year contract extension with AEW in December 2024.
