RVD blazed a trail behind him for years that others walked down. He inspired a generation of risk-takers, and helped put ECW on the map as well. Now, as a WWE Hall of Famer in the latter part of his pro wrestling journey, he has the ability to look back and make certain observations, even if they may be a bit morbid.
RVD Speaks On His Legacy
One fan commented on X to say that RVD should get far more love for the contributions that the has made in the pro wrestling world. “My hot take is RVD don’t get enough credit for how much he changed American Pro Wrestling,” they wrote.
The WWE Hall of Famer saw this tweet, and he had a response in the chamber, ready to go. The way that he sees it, he might be in line for a more posthumous celebration of his career.
‘‘I think the plan is to give me credit post humorous…humus…uhm, after I die. [smiling emoji]”

RVD’s Current Status With WWE
Rob Van Dam has been coy about a possible spot on the WrestleMania 40 card in Philadelphia, especially when it came to the idea that he might have lost that invite after his AEW appearances. RVD hasn’t signed any deal with Tony Khan, and his agreement was only on a per appearance deal.
In the past, the Whole F’n Show also admitted that his lack of communication with Triple H might be the reason why he’s not around WWE more often. He was a part of the 2023 WWE Draft, but he hasn’t been back on their programming since.
