This year, the prestigious Crufts dog show will feature WWE legend Dustin Rhodes, who is making a shift from the wrestling ring to the dog competition scene. Rhodes, a 56-year-old former wrestler known for his multiple championships in WWE, has expressed excitement about attending the event in Birmingham. He is expected to bring his own dog to participate in the festivities alongside famed television presenter Claudia Winkleman.

Crufts is recognized as the largest dog show in the world and will take place from March 5 to March 8 at the NEC in Birmingham. The event is organized by The Kennel Club and attracts dog enthusiasts and participants from various backgrounds. Rhodes shared his announcement on social media, highlighting both his enthusiasm for the event and his own love for dogs, especially his Mastiff.

The presence of a notable sports figure like Rhodes at Crufts adds a unique twist to the traditional dog show. Such collaborations between celebrities from different fields and animal events can enhance the event's visibility, attracting a diverse audience and potentially increasing interest in canine care and breeding. This year's show promises to be an exciting mix of sports and animal passion, engaging fans of both wrestling and dog competition alike.
