Goldust has had much evolution along the way, but the best version was in the early 2000s when he won several titles in the WWE, including Tag Team titles with Booker T. Now that Rhodes currently works for AEW along with his half brother Cody Rhodes, fans have been eager to know whether the son of legendary Dusty Rhodes would ever pull off Goldust character again. During an interaction session with the fans on Twitter, a fan asked him whether he would bring back the ‘Seven’ Gimmick on screen. Rhodes replied that both Seven and Goldust characters had seen its end.

Dustin Rhodes has been in the limelight recently after getting heavy backlash from the wrestling fans for not putting over Nick Comoroto in the Bull rope match on AEW Dynamite.
