3 Possible Bookings For Rob Van Dam(RVD) Following His Rumoured Return To WWE
The Ruthless Aggression Era gave birth to some of the finest superstars sports entertainment has ever produced. That generation of superstars was lit with a brash attitude and brilliant in-ring skills. Before we begin this article on CombatSports247, a quick question for our readers:
Out of all the superstars who perform the Frog’s Splash, who could leap the highest? Please also take their respective hang times into context.
- Kofi Kingston
- Montez Ford
- Late Great Eddie Guerrero
- Seth Rollins
While all the above superstars are head and shoulders above 99% of people on the planet, there was one name that wasn’t included in the option. It was that of Rob Van Dam. The name RVD can send alarm bells ringing to fans of the Ruthless Aggression Era. The sudden burst of Pyro at the beginning of the entrance was followed by one of the coolest entrances with the Intercontinental or the Tag Team Title; the man’s abilities are unmatched to this day. Kane’s former tag team partner can safely be crowned the superstar with the 5 Star Frogs Splash. Kids, adults, and the old all stood up when RVD was about to perform his finisher, and had it not been for a certain son-in-law, Van Dam would have been a multiple-time heavyweight champion.
There have been numerous pieces of content that have given fan-made videos good ad revenue. Out of these a few years prior, many made a list of possible opponents Rob Van Dam could come back and face. The former WWE Superstar has worked like fine wine recently for the ‘ Other Company and has also hinted at his possible return to challenge a few big names. Here are three possible bookings for RVD on his return.
- GUNTHER
The Ring General has gone leaps and bounds with his faction. The Imperium Leader is the 2nd longest intercontinental champion in history, and his recent onslaught hasn’t gone unnoticed. Former WWE Superstar and high flyer RVD is reportedly very keen on ending Gunther’s reign as International at Crown Jewel, and if the Ring General wants to immortalise his name, the road may well go through this WWE legend.
- DOMINIK MYSTERIO
The young vs. old concept never gets old and always delivers for WWE. That is exactly why Dirty Dom vs. RVD would be a classic for the fans. RVD is hungry for a new challenge in life and will surely add value to Dominik Mysterio’s career or put him in his place. Either way, the fans will walk out winners.
- RANDY ORTON
The Legend Killer is surely on his way back with the number of rumours and articles dished out about him every hour as he looks to make a strong return at Payback. One of the sickest RKOs ever was to RVD, where the high flyer got his head planted on the mat and landed almost diagonally. To this day, that manoeuvre is played out in clips and highlights of Orton. RVD would like to remind the young fans that he is a lot more than just a highlight and take out the Legend Killer when they return.
