Kevin Owens Comments on the Death of Dusty Rhodes

NXT Champion Kevin Owens posted the following on Twitter, commenting on the passing of WWE Hall of Famer Dusty Rhodes today:

"Dusty...

These past few weeks, I kept telling myself that I had to find time to stop by the Performance Center and talk to Dusty. I wanted to thank him for all of his help in the last year and make sure he knew how grateful I was for the chance I got to work with him. But I've been very busy and just couldn't find the time.

Well, today, I learned that Dusty Rhodes has passed away.

There are no words to express the sadness I feel, not only because I won't get to see him or talk to him or laugh with him again, but because I didn't get to tell him how special he was to me.

So today, I invite you all to make time to tell the people in your lives how much they mean to you...You never know what tomorrow will bring.

I can only hope that even though I didn't get to tell him directly, Dusty knew how much I appreciated and valued his help, wisdom, support and friendship. He was unlike anybody I've ever met in this industry and to say that I will always remember him and be thankful for the honor of having known him is an understatement.

In the meantime, the entire NXT crew is on its way to Pittsburgh where we will do what we do best. And you can bet every single second of tonight and every other NXT show this week are dedicated to the memory of the legendary, one-and-only Dusty Rhodes.

My thoughts are with his family and friends at this time...especially his children. Your father was an incredible coach and an even better man. He will be greatly missed.

Dusty used to call us "his NXT kids"... Well, I think I speak for all of us at when I say that tonight and every other night from here on out, we will give it our all for you, Dusty.

We'll make you proud, Dream.

Thank you for the memories...thank you for everything.

Much love,

Kevin"

Potential Spoiler For WWE Fastlane

PWInsider reports that Dusty Rhodes is in Memphis tonight for WWE Fastlane. Rhodes could well appear in some fashion during tonight’s match between Stardust and Goldust.

Opinionated View- Yet another reason not to care about Fast Lane we already have to many old men on this card we don't need Dusty.

Dusty Rhodes Appearing on Raw

Dusty Rhodes revealed that he will be on Monday's RAW for the feud between Stardust and Goldust. He tweeted the following:

Dusty Rhodes        ✔ @WWEDustyRhodes Follow

This Monday night on Raw I will be there ,and the Boys and me will get these hard times on the Rhodes family over !

 

Opinionated View- Maybe we will get lucky and Dusty will got off script in rehearsals and WWE will pull the segment. It's bad enough we still have to see Goldust and now we are getting Dusty again.

Why Wasn't Dusty Rhodes at Old School Raw?

- Dusty Rhodes didn't appear on Old School Raw despite a lot of discussion about putting him on the show. Rhodes still reportedly has heat on him with WWE officials after he went off-script during a promo on Raw opposite Stephanie McMahon during the storyline where Goldust and Cody Rhodes got their jobs back. 

As previously reported, the issue was that Dusty refesed to let Stephanie get the better of him during the promo and put his hand in her face. He hasn't been on WWE programming since them.

Opinionated View- i find it funny that Stephanie won't let Dusty get the better of her yet she books Dusty and Jake the Snake to get the better of guys like Ambrose. Now it's not like Dusty would have made that show better he could have made it worse.

WWE Battleground Match to be Set up Monday (SPOILERS)

As previously reported, Dusty, Cody and Dustin Rhodes will all be at Raw on Monday. They will be there at the invitation of Triple H, with the idea to book a Rhodes Family vs. Shield six man tag team match. The match has reportedly been on the schedule for the Battleground PPV since last week.

Opinionated View- The Rhodes Family you gotta be kidding me. I want Cody to do well but come on Dusty who looks like he's 80 year's old whose last good match came in the Reagan years? We really got to see him wrestle again and have the Shield sell for him. You want to do a big match with him? And Dustin the guy whose gotten how many chances and when was the last time people gave a damn about him 1998? You want to a match with Dusty and Dustin in Cody's corner I could get behind that. Also doesn't this screw up Ziggler and Usos who are feuding with the Shield? 

Segment Set For Raw

WWE has posted a video where Triple H has invited the Rhodes Family to Raw for a business opportunity.  Dustin Runnels posted on Twitter he was meeting with Cody and Dusty to discuss it.

Opinionated View- Why I am happy Cody is taking part in a big story I have zero interest in Dusty and Dustin. They played there role early on but let make this about Cody. Not about two old guys that have had there time.

9/16 WWE Raw Results

Justin Roberts introduces the NEW holder of the WWE Championship – Daniel Bryan.

The crowd is lifted to their feet as they enthusiastically point their fingers towards the sky and chant along with the versatile star. Yes, yes, yes.

Bryan enters the ring with a microphone. He soaks up the chanting and cheering as the ruckus crescendos towards its peak. His first words as the new Champ are directed towards the audience: “You guys are awesome”. He claims that his feelings can be summed up by one word, “YES”.

Hunter tells Bryan that he is no longer the WWE Champion. As of this moment there is no Champion until Hunter can get to the bottom of the conspiracy. He demands that Bryan hand the belt over.

Bryan stares down as he clutches the Championship in his hands. With a look of resignation he glances towards Hunter as the crowd screams, “NO”. Bryan refuses to hand over the belt. In one swift motion Hunter grabs the Title as Orton hits Bryan with an RKO. As the show heads towards commercial the fans are chanting, “Randy Sucks”.

-Commercial-

The American Dream theme hits for Dusty Rhodes. He makes his way into the ring. He thanks the fans for their ovation, but says he is not here as the American Dream. Tonight he is here as Virgil Runnels. This is not about him; this is about his son’s job. Dusty paints a picture of life outside the ring and the struggle to raise his sons. Virgil asks, “what the hell is good for business?”. He is upset that the hard work and dedication of Cody has been mitigated by Hunter’s personal bias. Runnels puts over Goldust’s showing last week on RAW. He claims that God’s greatest gift is the gift of children to raise and teach them to be the best. Runnels states that he did not ask for a conversation with Stephanie McMahon tonight. All that he is interested in is finding out how his son can have a chance to earn back his job. Stephanie has a business proposal, so he is ready to hear it.

Stephanie McMahon makes her way down to the ring. She applauds Virgil’s speech. She acknowledges the wedding from this past week. She apologizes if the recent happenings cast a shadow over the proceedings. She hands Virgil a gift card for Bed Bath & Beyond for Cody Rhodes. He is not amused. Stephanie is confused seeing as how that is where the wedding gifts were registered.

Stephanie cuts to the chase. She says that she is out here to offer Cody his job back. Runnels nods in agreement and says that they are finished. Stephanie stops him in his tracks. She offers him another option. There is only one roster spot available. Virgil has the choice between either Goldust or Cody. It’s a choice between the son that was fired and the son that he neglected for years while he was on the road. Runnels is not pleased with the ultimatum. He says that he is not going to make that choice. Stephanie rebukes a speech from Runnels in which he tries to involve her children. Runnels refuses to decide. He tells Stephanie to go to hell. Stephanie claims that she is sorry to hear that decision.

The Shield’s music hits. They come down and surround Runnels. Stephanie says that she has someone in the back that can help even things out. Big Show’s music hits. Instead of being brought in to assist, Stephanie has other ideas. Since Runnels will not make a choice between sons, he is presented with another choice. He can either be beaten down by The Shield or knocked out by The Big Show.

The Big Show is furious. Since Runnels won’t make a decision, and Show is starting to tear up, she tells The Shield to attack. Show stands in their way and commands them not to touch the Hall of Famer. Roman Reigns heads out of the ring and grabs three chairs for The Shield. Knowing that Runnels may not survive an attack by The Shield, Show has no choice. He whispers that he is sorry to Virgil. Show delivers a brutal Weapon of Mass Destruction. Show catches Virgil in his arms as he starts to fall and sets him down gently on the mat. Medics race toward the ring. Show kneels over Runnels bawling his eyes out.

Preview For Tonight's 9/16 WWE Raw

WWE RAW is live tonight from Cleveland, Ohio. Tonight is the fallout from last night's Night of Champions PPV. Advertised for the show is an appearance by WWE Hall of Famer Dusty Rhodes.

Dusty Rhodes Invited to Raw

Stephanie McMahon on Twitter:

. @WWEDustyRhodes please accept this invitation to attend RAW this Monday in Cleveland. I have a business proposition for you. Thank you.

Opinionated View- GOD DAMN IT! I knew this was coming and yes I will admit it makes perfect sense given the story they are telling but that doesn't mean I can't hate it. If we are lucky Dusty will only cut a promo and than get walked out but this is WWE odds are we getting a match. And I don't like Dusty matches from his prime much less now when he's pushing 70. 

WWE News: Backstage Reaction to Goldust vs. Orton, Re-Writes to Raw, More

There were re-writes on last night's Raw show. At one point, Vince McMahon was set to be a major part of the show.

- Goldust and Randy Orton impressed many with their match last night, as both received a standing ovation from the talent and crew as soon as they went backstage after their match.

- Dusty Rhodes may be involved in the angle next, but not in a wrestling capacity.

Opinionated View- Thank god Vince wasn't used the show was bad enough and we already have to many McMahon's running around. How much you want to be some of the guys if not all of them stood up because if they didn't there would some BS heat on them for not doing it. 

I stand by my comments that it was the same boring match Dustin has been having for years. It gets worse last thing I want to see or hear is Dusty showing up again. You already got the family reaction with Dustin.

Dustin Rhodes/Goldust to Wrestle Randy Orton on Raw

From WWE.com:

After a series of tweets from Dustin Rhodes in support of getting his brother, Cody Rhodes, rehired, WWE COO Triple H agreed to pit Dustin in a match against WWE Champion Randy Orton on this Monday's Raw.

Opinionated View- I understand the logic here Dustin/Goldust is Cody's brother. So yeah it's a quick and easy story. But that doesn't cover the fact Dustin SUCKS! And he has sucked for many years. He's out of shape and at best he won't be there next week. At worst he gets rehired again and than has bad matches until he gets fired again. And if you want to do a follow up to last week have someone anyone who actually on the roster stand up for Cody. Well I guess I should be happy it's Dustin and not Dusty of course with my luck Dusty is coming back for a match next week.
