Dustin Rhodes, better known as Goldust, has received high praise from none other than The Undertaker, who believes that Goldust is deserving of a spot in the WWE Hall of Fame. In a recent episode of the Six Feet Under podcast, The Undertaker expressed his support for Goldust’s induction into the prestigious Hall of Fame.
When asked about Goldust’s worthiness for the Hall of Fame, The Undertaker responded, “Absolutely. 100%. This is a semantics thing at this point. I would imagine at some point, down the road. I think his resume is Hall of Fame worthy. Obviously, we know the one stickler right now and I think at some point that goes away. Then I couldn’t see too much time probably going by that he wouldn’t be inducted.”
The Undertaker went on to praise Goldust for his ability to embrace and make the Goldust character his own. He acknowledged that while many people credit him for making his character unique, Goldust’s transformation was a significant risk, especially considering his traditional wrestling background with his father, Dusty Rhodes.
Goldust’s portrayal of the androgynous, eccentric character was a departure from his previous wrestling persona, and it paid off. He became one of the most memorable and controversial characters in WWE history, captivating audiences with his unique style and captivating performances.
The Undertaker’s endorsement of Goldust’s Hall of Fame candidacy adds weight to the argument that Goldust’s contributions to the wrestling industry should be recognized and celebrated. With a career spanning over three decades, Goldust has left an indelible mark on the industry and has proven himself to be a versatile and talented performer.
Goldust’s achievements include multiple championship reigns, memorable feuds, and his ability to reinvent himself time and time again. From his early days as a tag team competitor to his later success as a singles wrestler, Goldust has consistently delivered entertaining and compelling performances.
As we await the decision of the WWE Hall of Fame selection committee, it is clear that Goldust’s impact on the industry cannot be denied. The support from a legendary figure like The Undertaker only strengthens his case for induction.
