Tony Khan Calls Current AEW Star One Of The Best Wrestlers Of His Lifetime

Since the beginning of AEW the company has signed many professional wrestling veterans and Dustin Rhodes has been All Elite from day one. Over the last four years Dustin Rhodes has been giving it his all inside the ring and he’s also contributed behind the scenes as well.

AEW President Tony Khan recently appeared on Sports Guys Talking Wrestling, and he praised Dustin Rhodes will calling him one of the “best pro wrestlers of my lifetime.”

“Dustin Rhodes is one of the best pro wrestlers of my lifetime. I’ve been looking up to Dustin Rhodes since I first started watching wrestling, he’s one of the first wrestlers I ever saw. And throughout his career, he’s maintained a really high standard of excellence, physical fitness right now is at a premium, I think Dustin, these last ten years, is in much better shape than the decade prior to that, which is unusual,” Khan explained. “His staying power, his longevity, is also really unusual to have somebody doing their best wrestling at this advanced age, it’s unusual.

“I think Dustin could continue on for many, many years and wrestle at a very high standard for years to come,” he added. “I respect the hell out of Dustin Rhodes; I can tell you also respect the hell out of him, Stew. He’s just a tremendous, tremendous wrestler and I think he’s somebody, for AEW since the very beginning, has been very important on-screen and off-screen.”

Dustin Rhodes announced last month that 2023 will be his last year as an active wrestler, but only time will tell what the future holds for Rhodes. Stay tuned for updates.
