Dustin  Patrick  Runnels  :    (born  April  11,  1969)  better  known  by  his  ring  names  Goldust  and  Dustin  Rhodes,  is  an  American  professional  wrestler  who  is  currently  signed  to  WWE.  Dustin  Runnels'  enigmatic,  sexually  ambiguous  gimmick  of  "Goldust"  has  frequently  been  praised  as  one  of  the  central  figures  of  the  Attitude  Era—which  was  a  period  of  very  adult  content  in  the  WWF/WWE.

He  is  also  known  for  performing  in  various  promotions  such  as  World  Championship  Wrestling  (WCW)  and  Total  Nonstop  Action  Wrestling  (TNA)  under  the  name  Dustin  Rhodes.  Among  the  other  names  Runnels  has  performed  under  are  Black  Reign  and  Seven.  Runnels  is  the  son  of  WWE  Hall  of  Famer  Dusty  Rhodes.

Between  WWF/E  and  WCW,  Runnels  has  officially  won  19  total  championships.  In  WCW,  he  was  a  two-time  United  States  Champion,  a  one-time  Six-Man  Tag  Team  Champion,  a  two-time  World  Tag  Team  Champion,  and  a  one-time  NWA  World  Tag  Team  Champion  (which  the  NWA  doesn't  recognize).  In  World  Wrestling  Federation/Entertainment/WWE,  he  is  a  three-time  Intercontinental  Champion,  a  nine-time  Hardcore  Champion,  a  one-time  World  Tag  Team  Champion,  and  a  two-time  WWE  Tag  Team  Champion.  Along  with  Cody  Rhodes,  Goldust  also  won  the  2013  Tag  Team  of  the  Year  Slammy  Award.
