Dustin Rhodes Calls TNT Title Win ‘A Very Special And Honest Moment’

Dustin Rhodes talks capturing the AEW TNT Championship at AEW All In 2025.

At AEW All In 2025, it was announced that Adam Cole would announce that he would be vacating the AEW TNT Title and spoke to the crowd prior to a four way bout involving Rhodes, Sammy Guevara, Kyle Fletcher and Daniel Garcia. In the end, Rhodes would secure the victory and the TNT title.

While speaking on the AEW All In 2025 Post Show Media Scrum, Dustin Rhodes was asked about winning the AEW TNT Championship at the event.

“It means a great deal to me to be TNT Champion. Some of the funnest times I’ve had in my career were in WCW. I was killing it and I was right on the cusp of getting there, maybe entering the world title picture. Things went a different way and I ended up going to the other company. To be back working on TNT and TBS, it’s very special. They’ve already put it on their homepage that I’m the face of the company now. That means the world to me. Still shocked, but I love this company to death. I love this. I’m going to treat this like it’s pure 18 karat gold and do the best that I can do. Continue to stay on the path to ‘Keep Steppin,’ as my dad used to say, and defend this thing. I want to be a defending champion. I want to work hard, like I always have. Now, it’s time for me to step up. It means the world. It’s a very special and honest moment that is hard to put into the correct words. I’m very proud of myself. I finally did it. “
