Over 24 yrs it has treated me wonderful and i thank the fans for all their support in letting me have my ups and downs and going out there each night and do my best to put on a good show for the world! Ty for ur continued support! I consider myself a great wrestler and performer and only want 1 thing left to do in this business! My brother cody rhodes! I want him at WM29 1on 1 ! Now alot of people including vince dont want this or think this will work but i say BULLSH*T! I dont know why the pwers that be wont let me , goldust, have his last curtain call with his brother. Is it politics? Probably. But whatever the reason is in my opinion its wrong! If anyone is able to make this match work it me! My skill and codys skill writes this match easily and would be one of if not the best match of the night at WM29! So i am asking every goldust ad cody fan out there today to make ur voices heard and maybe just maybe we can make it happen! Positive thought to all and lets make cody vs goldie happen WM29 #braggin rights, goldusts final curtain call ! Ty all for ur support, dustin”
