Last Minute Sales & Specials

"The American Dream: The Dusty Rhodes Story:" will forever be remembered as the working man's champion. A master on the mic and a three-time NWA World Champion, he has had numerous confrontations with the top stars in sports-entertainment, including Ric Flair, Harley Race, "Macho Man" Randy Savage, "Superstar" Billy Graham, Ted Dibiase, Tully Blanchard, and Terry Funk. Decades later, his contributions to sports-entertainment are still felt. This three-disc release is the definitive collection for both Dusty fans, and those who want to learn more about "The American Dream." As he and his son prepare to face Ric Flair and Jeff Jarrett at the "Greed" PPV, the "American Dream" Dusty Rhodes, reflects on his storied career and one of the biggest matches he's had with Flair. The third time may have been the sweetest, as Rhodes defeated "Nature Boy" Ric Flair to win the NWA Heavyweight Championship for a third time, at the time joining Flair, Harley Race (who Rhodes defeated for each of his first two championship reigns), and Lou These as the only professional wrestlers to hold the championship that many times. Rhodes and Flair were continuous rivals through the years, so taking the title from Flair made it all the better. But of course, Flair wasn't Rhodes' only long-time adversary. A superstar with Dusty's charisma and controversy is sure to make enemies. "Superstar" Billy Graham, Harley Race, Tully Blanchard and Terry Funk are just a few. Wherever Rhodes went, someone tried to make a name for himself at the expense of "The American Dream." Whether it was Funk in Florida, Lex Luger in WCW, Ted DiBiase in WWE, Steve Corino in ECW, Rhodes was constantly in wars for championship gold and fighting pride. But he always had the fans behind him. Dusty was magic on the mic, with a near-legendary ability to "talk people into the building." His interviews and promos demonstrate the connection he has to the average fan, as they look to "The Son Of A Plumber" as their ultimate hero.
