WWE unveiled the brand new Dusty Rhodes statue Thursday night at WWE Axxess. Several WWE Superstars including The Rhodes Family, Triple H and more were present for the unveiling and Cody Rhodes encouraged fans to speak to the statue as if they were speaking to Dusty himself.
“Dusty Rhodes was famous for talking but he was a hell of a listener. If you come to this statue, take a picture. Don’t be shy. Talk to him. Tell him how your day is going. Tell him who you think is going to win at WrestleMania. Tell him everything, because I have to believe that this special group of people that comes to WrestleMania, comes to Axxess, comes to NXT, people that love sports-entertainment, that echoes in heaven and earth.”
You can check out some photos along with a video of the entire presentation below.
