Dustin Rhodes had plenty of short stints at WWE. His first stint began back in 1990 and he continued making appearances till 2019 when he officially retired.
But it’s not just his contributions at WWE. The Undertaker believes that Rhodes’ contributions outside the ring are something that makes him worthy of the Hall of Fame.
