10 Wrestlers Who NEED Out Of AEW
7. Dustin Rhodes
It's time.
Look, it's cool that Dustin Rhodes helps out as a mentor/coach behind the scenes in AEW. It really is, but he'll always be considered more of a WWE guy, and there are a few nice paydays waiting for Dustin should he return. His brother Cody is the top babyface in the biz right now too, and you'd think Rhodes would want to be part of that.
Obviously, he's a veteran who is free to do as he chooses, but going back to WWE this time would also let Dustin be himself on a grand stage. He wouldn't need to look out the old blonde wig to play Goldust one last time, and that perhaps wouldn't have been the case when Vince McMahon was booking.
This fan sees more value in Dustin playing the veteran and loving brother role over in WWE than he does with Rhodes wrestling sporadic matches on AEW TV. Dustin can still go, so it'd be a shame if he never graced Raw, SmackDown or WWE PLE again before retiring.
