All Elite Wrestling Renames 'The Gorilla Position' In Touching Tribute To Dusty Rhodes

A touching tribute was paid to the late and legendary Dusty Rhodes at last night's AEW Dynamite television taping. 

Behind the scenes of every professionally produced wrestling show is a section where senior officials and producers run the show from, it is widely referred to in WWE as "the gorilla position" after it was named after the late WWE Hall Of Famer Gorilla Monsoon.

AEW's production area will be known as "The Dusty Position" in honor of Cody Rhodes' father. 

Cody tweeted a photo of a plaque that has Dusty’s cowbell hanging over it, which will be hanging behind the scenes of every AEW produced show.

"What a wonderful surprise to find in the Go Position...

which is now, “The Dusty Position” featuring his authentic cowbell #AEW"
