"This one goes into the seemingly endless pile of “McMahon bad ideas,” but it’s such an amazing one that we felt it deserved merit. To jazz up the Goldust character, Vince brought up the idea of Dustin going under the knife and receiving silicone breast implants to further blur the gender line. Dustin offered no protest, but it took the strong objections of a team of doctors before the WWE backed off on the idea."
Would you have respected Golddust more or less if he got fake tits to keep up kayfabe?

This sounds like bullshit.

Its a pretty well known story but like a lot of wrestling it may not be true
>>2716734
I thought that story was that Goldust himself proposed to do this for a million dollars and Vince considered by eventually dismissed the idea
If Dustin were prettier in the face they'd all be 100% behind this. Or at least should be.
I think he would be the only transgender wrestler I would accept.

As a kid in that era where calling someone gay was worse than calling them a nigger, probably not. As an adult I would be able to wrap my head around working the he-man muscle worshippers. It would have been hilarious.

What matters is that Goldust will be remembered as Goldust, NOT as the Son of Dusty Rhodes. That's all that matters.
Unlike people like say, charlotte, who will forever be remembered as "Flair's Daughter" , even if she becomes 11 time womens champion

Good point. I never looked at it like that before. Good on Dustin.

Ahh early WCW as the Natural Dustin Rhodes

>Never enjoyed the 'King of the Road' match starring the WCW helicopter..
What the fuck is wrong with you?

Woah, really makes me think.
Seriously, this is actually thought provoking and perfectly describes some parent-child relationships in the business.
Quality post anon.
