Ric Flair Remembers Dusty Rhodes, Says He Was The Definition Of Heart And ...



Ric Flair wrote the following on Facebook yesterday about the tragic passing of Dusty Rhodes:

All I wanted to be in 1972 was Rambling Ricky Rhodes. The Dream told me "you can make it on your own." He mentored me and taught me how to be a star. Dusty used to say "If you are going to pass by... why not in a Cadillac??" He's the man who invented A Flair for the Gold and was a genius way ahead of his time. Much love to your family and more respect than can ever be measured. Love you Dream.

Flair also released this statement on Dusty:

Today I lost one of my greatest opponents and greatest friends. He was the definition of heart and soul and I'm honored to have shared the ring with him countless times.

He became the 'American Dream' because wrestling needed a hero they could respect, and he was the man for the job. Dusty Rhodes, I will miss you my mentor and friend.
