Dustin Rhodes received a heartfelt message from an old friend after he won the TNT Championship at All In. R-Truth took to social media to congratulate him following his momentous victory.
Yesterday at All In: Texas, a new champion needed to be crowned after Adam Cole relinquished his TNT Title. The Natural competed in a four-way match against Kyle Fletcher, Daniel Garcia, and his current tag team partner, Sammy Guevara. Rhodes was able to defy the odds and win his first singles championship in AEW.

Dustin Rhodes recently signed a long-term extension with AEW
The veteran has been with AEW since their first show in 2019, and it seems that he has no plans of going anywhere else, as he recently signed a long-term extension. Back in December, he disclosed that he had re-signed with the company, but details of this have now emerged.
Dallas Morning News reported that Dustin Rhodes had signed a six-year extension. It was also mentioned what roles he'll continue to have, including as an in-ring talent, a coach, a consultant, and an ambassador for AEW.
Rhodes is not only a major figure in AEW, but he also stands as a double champion in ROH. Apart from the TNT Championship, he also holds the ROH Tag Team and Six-Man Tag Titles.
All eyes will now be on him, as he has now become a bigger figure in both companies.
