ROB VAN DAM shooting the sh1t

This is a very good ‘Talk Wrestling’ interview with Jeff Meacham interviewing one of my all-time favorites, the one and the only Rob Van Dam.

Let’s be honest, at any given arena show or television taping, when a wrestler was announced to the crowd, has there ever been anyone as over as RVD?

Anyone who knows me would tell you that since I started watching professional wrestling on TV, of any and all the wrestlers I’ve seen I can honestly say that Rob Van Dam is my second favorite of all-time. It may sound funny to say he is second, and not first, but I consider it high praise. The only reason why he is probably not first, is because I was really young when I caught on to the WWF and one of their wrestlers always stood out to me as my favorite for years (He’ll go unnamed for now, but it shouldn’t be hard to figure out whom it is).

As always, Rob quite simply says it how is. I love listening to Rob talk, he doesn’t come off as bitter or ego-centered or anything else a lot of other wrestlers tend to when you hear them shoot after being out of the business a few years. We miss you Rob.

The night Rob Van Dam took the belt from John Cena was one of the great shows ever on WWE TV. Here is the opening to the match which Rob alludes to with Jeff. The old school ECW fans were representing in New York that night, it was beautiful.

He wasn’t called the ‘Whole F’N Show’ for nothing. Since Rob’s departure from any of the mainstream wrestling shows the industry has been a far duller place ever since.
