WWE Legend Reveals How Cody Rhodes’ Family Member Helped Him Survive a Cool-Down Period Before the Best Time of His Career – “They Actually Pay Us..”

Apart from McMahons and the legendary Anoa’i family, the one family that has quite the legacy in pro wrestling is ‘The Rhodes’ family. They have been serving the pro wrestling fans for many generations. No matter if it is the role of a mid-card wrestler, the man-eventer, or merely a backstage entertainer, the Rhodes family always did their best.

And once again, Cody Rhodes‘ family is in the news. But this time, it is not because of the exploits of ‘The American Nightmare’ or the late Dusty Rhodes. This time, it is because of a WWE legend who revealed Goldust helped him to survive his ‘cool-down’ period.

WWE Hall of Famer on how Goldust helped him during his cool-down period

In a recent episode of the podcast ‘Reality of Wrestling’, the WWE Hall of Famer Booker T revealed how Goldust, the brother of Cody Rhodes accompanied him to survive his cool-down period from 2002-2003.

According to the WWE legend, he actually enjoyed that period with Goldust on his side. Booker T said that, at that time, he and Goldust were just used to doing backstage segments. Booker T also mentioned that sometimes they just question themselves why the company is paying them to do this. 

Talking about that time, Booker T said, “I think  Goldust and I was a cool-down period for me…. We used to sit in the locker room sometimes we used to be like…..  ‘Man like they actually pay us to do this, we come to work to do this every week’. You know we didn’t have anything going on on the show. A lot of times as far as wrestling matches or anything like that.”

Later in his WWE career, Booker T would win the King of the Ring tournament and also won the World Heavyweight Championship becoming a main eventer in the process. His tag team with Goldust was one of fun and entertainment.

However, things didn’t stay the same and their partnership eventually evolved and they became the tag team champions.

From backstage entertainers to the tag team champions

Later in the podcast, WWE legend Booker T mentioned that after a while, they finally got their shot. The WWE Hall of Famer revealed that he knew he wasn’t going to be a world champion at that time, so he just took a step back and decided to enjoy the “fruits of labor”.

And now that Booker T has revealed this side of his career, he must have become the inspiration for several other wrestlers who are currently going through their cool-down period.
