WHY IS DUSTIN RHODES ATTACKING “WILDCAT” CHRIS
HARRIS?

At the last TNA Wrestling Pay-Per-View, “Victory Road”, we saw the
return of Dustin Rhodes to TNA as he attacked “Wildcat” Chris
Harris, allowing Christian Cage to get the win. Dustin’s weapon of
choice that night was handcuffs. On the following Thursday on iMPACT!,
fans witnessed Dustin again attack Harris during a tag team bout,
this time with a steel chair.
The last time Dustin was in TNA he didn’t have a beef with Harris.
In fact, Harris and Rhodes teamed up on several occasions. Is there
some bad blood between Chris Harris and Dustin Rhodes that we don’t
know about?
Rhodes could just be making a name for himself by getting rid of an
up and coming star like Harris. Rhodes could possibly resent someone
like Chris Harris, a longtime TNA star that believes he is ready for
the big time and the main event spotlight.
In my opinion I think this all has a lot to do with Dustin’s quick
rise and pressure put on him early in his career. Dustin’s first pro
wrestling debut was in 1988 and from the beginning he was considered
by many to be “the next big superstar” in the sport. Main event
spots and title runs followed. Dustin had all this on his shoulders,
plus he was living in the shadow of his father’s career. When you
look at the rollercoaster ride Dustin has been over the years I
wonder today if Dustin resents Chris Harris for being where he once
was.
So, jealousy could be causing Dustin Rhodes to physically attack
“The Wildcat”. Or is it something else? What brought Dustin back to
TNA and what is motivating him to go after Chris Harris? Perhaps
we’ll find out this Thursday night on “iMPACT!” when Rhodes speaks
out for the first time about his actions.
