I grew up in Rhode Island so I was a WWF fan and would only see “Southern Wrestling” in the magazines. Later in life, I picked up a DVD of Dusty Rhodes matches and promos. A promo is what wrestlers are doing when they are selling a match. I was in awe.
Dusty was the common man. He spoke to the regular person in a way that every personal injury lawyer should. He was a amazing orator, that I have since spent many hours listening to. I don’t wrestling watch much anymore, so I have no idea how much he was still on. But, I will continue to take the time to listen to his words and hopefully learn from them.
