One of my all time heroes and one the all time greats has passed away. American Dream #DustyRhodes I will never forget you. #Legend

I first met Dusty Rhodes at 5yrs old when me and my family were spending time with him and his family on their ranch. This man would become not only a great inspiration and mentor to me, but more importantly inspire and entertain wrestling fans around the world by becoming one of the greatest of all time. Dusty's epically entertaining "Bionic elbow" was my inspiration to create "The most electrifying move in sports entertainment – The People's Elbow". This Heavyweight World Champion personified the blue collar fighting spirit and his influence on the wrestling business is invaluable. I'll be forever grateful for the tremendous influence he's had on me and my career in our beloved squared circle. Miss and love you Dusty.. RIP brother. #HardTimesDaddy #SonOfAPlumber #BadDudeInTheGame #TheAmericanDream

I deeply mourn the passing of my dear friend Dusty Rhodes, he was a true legend. He was one of the all time greats of modern day wrestling, who left his mark on every wrestler who had the privilege to know and work with him. My thought are with Cody and Dustin, and the entire Rhodes family. I'm so sad, yet glad I got to speak with him at Raw in Montreal, he was happy and content, immensely proud of his sons. I loved him and will miss him always. Bret Hart
