Veteran AEW star teases retirement

AEW’s Dustin Rhodes took to Twitter this afternoon with a message with seems to hint at retirement from in-ring action.

He did not outright say that he would retire but here is what he said on Twitter:

“Man, old age has caught up to me guys. As much as I push myself beyond my limits, I can honestly say, I am doing some heavy thinking about the next step. We all think we can go forever with new batteries, but TIME comes for all of us. Kinda scared tbh. #KeepSteppin

Rhodes first teased retiring in the build-up to his match with his brother Cody Rhodes at the first Double Or Nothing show in 2019. He is very valuable behind-the-scenes while also staying active for occasional shows.

Rhodes has wrestled a handful of matches this year and has been praised for being able to still go at the age of 53. The last time he wrestled was on the 8/24 episode of Rampage against ROH World Champion Claudio Castagnoli.

We wish Dustin the best in whatever he decides to do with his career.
