While Cody's metamorphosis into Stardust has sadly confounded many fans (a shame, given how far he wildly loses himself in the role), the initial pairing of him and half-brother Dustin was borne of genius. Their feud with The Authority and The Shield established both men as true babyface heroes with conviction and fortitude. In an era where WWE struggles to create new heroes, the brothers Rhodes played them with effortless feistiness. The duo of Goldust and Stardust didn't exactly replicate the enjoyment factor of seeing the two take on the machine out of well-instilled pride, but it did serve to utilize two gifted workers of different generations on a weekly basis. Like with Miz and Mizdow, it sucks that the split was a waste.
