In the episode of the countdown-style preview series leading up to the 5/25 PPV, wrestling legend Dustin Rhodes reveals himself to be the opponent for his younger brother, AEW Executive Vice President (E.V.P.) Cody Rhodes. The five-minute video serves as a long promo from the man formerly known as Goldust, who talks about their family legacy, including their upbringing with late WWE Hall Of Famer “The American Dream” Dusty Rhodes and Cody’s new venture as the head of a major pro wrestling business.
Dustin ends the video by claiming, “This is a fight that needs to end. One last ride…or is it?”
