Jim Ross was on the Steve Austin show today, he said Cody Rhodes told him Dusty passed with family around him and Willie Nelson playing in the backround.

X-Pac of all people wrote a really great response to TMZ for releasing 911 calls if anyone cares to see it. R.I.P. Dusty, TOP 25 all time. Top 25 of all time? I can't think of 24 guys better than Dusty. Hell I can't think of 7 guys better than him. |

If I ever die...I really want WWE to take family footage of me and make a tribute video...Damn they ace these things every time. Doesnt matter if its for death, retirement or whatever. I'm slightly irritated with it. Yeah everything seems well done, but only three highlights during raw. Only one special. They had all weekend to put together highlights. They barely interviewed anyone from NXT and all the special was was a handful of new interviews and clips from his old DVD. They could do more for a guy who gave us so much. Agreed. I feel they did more for Warrior |

Its sad that dusty gave his life to this business and got a repeat of his DVD with some new interviews and nothing else |

I just watched the video build up and the match from Battleground 2013: Goldust & Cody with Dusty Rhodes vs. The Shield. Just as enjoyable now as it was then...RIP Dusty...the Rhodes family had the crowd rocking that night! My favourite moment from that event - loved it. |

Agreed. I feel they did more for Warrior Warrior week.. A guy who barely did time for the business and crap on everyone afterwards. Its sad that dusty gave his life to this business and got a repeat of his DVD with some new interviews and nothing else The reason Warrior had "Warrior week" is because Vince thought of him like a son. I feel like Vince and other people in power felt bad for treating this man like garbage for so many years, and when the bridge was finally made he died. WWE wanted to get Warriors story out there, people wondered where this man was the last 15 years. Also last time I looked WWE didn't put out a "Self destruction of" Dusty Rhodes dvd. Warrior was no more important than Dusty Rhodes, just like Dusty Rhodes was no more important than Warrior. R.I.P. Dream. |

Dusty Rhodes was 100 times more important to the wrestling business than warrior. He worked this business for 30+ years and when he couldn't wrestle anymore he gave us stories through other people. He trained people, and taught them how to entertain us. Guilt or not. Warrior shouldn't have gotten a week of programming for such a short career. No matter who talked bad about him. |

So here is a freaky fact.
In his "Hard Times" promo, Dusty said “There were two bad people. One was John Wayne and he’s dead, brother, and the other’s right here.” John Wayne died on June 11, in 1979, 36 years to the day prior to Dusty's passing.

Totally agree and I can't help but feel like the difference in treatment may also have to do with the fact that Warrior was a WWF made guy and Dusty wasn't. |

So were the stomach cancer rumors true or what?
I know someone who passed away from stomach cancer and it's incredibly nasty and quick. Horrible to watch.
