Longtime WWE star Goldust recently did an interview with Justin Barrasso of Sports Illustrated to talk about various topics including All Elite Wrestling and his brother, Cody Rhodes, being involved.
Goldust has high hopes for the newly launched AEW (All Elite Wrestling) promotion as Cody will serve as the Executive Vice President alongside with The Young Bucks. AEW President Tony Khan will be the head of the creative team.
During this interview, Goldust made it known that he thinks the competition will ultimately benefit WWE, which will be a good thing for both sides as well as fans.
“Me and Cody talk a lot, and I was on a movie set for a horror film that I’m doing, and we were texting about that AEW rally in Jacksonville,” said Rhodes. “The pyro alone was spectacular. They’re doing it really professionally, from the heads of the company to their big talent to the newer stars. I’m very curious to see what Cody and the Young Bucks can do with All Elite Wrestling.”
Goldust continued by stating, “I hope this really takes storm and becomes something formidable. You need places to go and work, competition is great and it is the best thing that can happen for WWE. I am very proud of Cody, and I know Dad would be so proud and happy for Cody. He has a great mind for the business, he’s done so much already, but he’s paid attention and learned from mistakes. He’s fought for what he has, and his work in AEW will show that.”
