AEW star Dustin Rhodes has responded to speculation that he doesn’t want to continue wrestling, commenting on his potential retirement.

With Dustin Rhodes previously teasing his retirement, there have been rumors swirling about the 36-year wrestling veteran’s in-ring future.
Rhodes is now a champion, winning the ROH Six Man Tag Team Championship alongside Marshall and Ross Von Erich at the July 27 Battle of the Belts XI event.

Bully Ray recently questioned Dustin’s desire to keep wrestling, noting the following on Busted Open Radio:
“I think Dustin has been put in a position where he has not been utilized enough, and maybe in his mind now, because he doesn’t get utilized, it’s like, ‘All right, maybe my better days are behind me. Maybe I’m not wanted as much anymore.
“I would be taking advantage of Dustin, especially just because of the Rhodes name. Nothing about what I see from Dustin, hear from Dustin, the shape he’s gotten himself into, his work rate, leads me to believe that this guy truly wants out of the ring.”

Dustin Rhodes has now responded to these comments, taking to Twitter to state that he won’t be retiring anytime soon.
