WWE paid tribute to the late Dusty Rhodes during Sunday night's Money in the Bank pay-per-view.
Rhodes, born Virgil Runnels Jr. but known in the ring as "The American Dream" Dusty Rhodes, died Thursday at the age of 69. He was one of pro wrestling's most popular figures during the 1980's and was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2007.
WWE honored Rhodes during Sunday night's event, showing a video of his greatest moments, including a clip of his two sons inducting him into the Hall of Fame. Both of his sons are WWE wrestlers and Rhodes still worked closely with WWE.
After the video was shown in the arena, every member of WWE's roster gathered on stage for a 10-bell salute in Rhodes's honor, which Deadspin has video of.
