At some point in the near future I will make a post that goes into more detail about Goldust, as portrayed by wrestler Dustin Rhodes (son of "The American Dream" Dusty Rhodes and brother of Cody Rhodes), but as an introduction to this one-of-a-kind superstar, have some gifs!

The stuff behind the scenes was every bit as weird. As much of a Bible-thumper Dustin Rhodes is IRL, he came up with about half this stuff himself. Did you know the reason he got fired from the WWF/E the first time was because he tried to get Vince McMahon to buy him breast implants?

No! Okay, that's amazing. I have to share that with my brothers, who are still really into wrestling.

Have you read the Dead Wrestler of the Week articles on Deadspin? They're really fascinating and well done.

P.S. Kevin Nash plays a stripper named Tarzan in Magic Mike.

The breast implant story has been vouched for by a few people, including JR, so I think its true even if Dustin Rhodes himself stays mum on the subject.

The whole saga of him as Goldust is really interesting -- Scott Hall, who played Razor Ramon, was so freaked out by him that he refused to wrestle Goldust, and halfway through their planned feud, he came out to the ring drunk and started legitimately punching Dustin like a madman. Then he got on the mic and gave a slurred speech that didn't really make any sense, except that it was by far the most homoerotic part of the whole thing ("I want your ASS!"). This led to Scott Hall being let go by the WWF. You can see it here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IkpExTNk_Uc

I will check out those articles! And I haven't seen Magic Mike, but I'll keep an eye out for any of Diesel's scenes should they appear on Youtube. ;)
