Rust is iron oxide, so the only metal that rusts is iron (or steel) - all other metals corrode.

Alkali metals rust the fastest, rusting is forming an oxide and anyone that thinks iron will rust quicker than sodium knows very little about chemistry.
Rubidium, Cesium, Francium, potassium and sodium will rust very quickly.
