Virgil Runnels, aka “The American Dream” Dusty Rhodes — WWE Hall of Famer, three-time NWA Champion and one of the most captivating and charismatic figures in sports entertainment history — passed away today at the age of 69..

He lived longer than many wrestling starts who preceeded him in death..

Rhodes was a fixture in wrestling for decades.. his prime time came with the WWE, THEN WWF..

Lately I have been listening to a number of wrestling podcasts including the Ric Flair WoooNation  show.  Getting nostalgic with each one more and more.
This death also showcases the changing era as the old guard passes away..
