Rob Van Dam is a bonafide WWE Hall Of Famer and now so is the man who put him on the map in Paul Heyman, but who will induct the original orchestrator of extreme?
In the upcoming episode of \"1 Of A Kind With RVD\" Van Dam said that he wasn\'t originally planning on attending the WWE Hall Of Fame this year, but with Heyman getting announced, RVD said he\'ll have to make plans.
Per usual, a lot of the fun speculation heading into WrestleMania is who will induct the inductees and there are several names who are worthy of inducting Heyman, including RVD. However, Rob had his own thoughts regarding that matter.
\"I think they can definitely find somebody better than me. You know, it\'d be an honor. And of course, if I was, nominated and asked to do it, I would give it my best.\
If I were to induct Paul Heyman...
Van Dam added that if he were to induct Heyman, he\'d want input from other wrestlers who were impacted by Heyman, but named three names who would be more fitting to do the actual induction.
\"I mean, [Tommy] Dreamer, Bubba [Ray Dudley]. Taz, those guys, they know Paul a lot more than I do. They were in New York.
\"I would see him on the weekends. They\'d see him all week too and they were there in the office and the production studio helping move the TV forward, also with the merchandise and just booking towns.\
Taz or RVD would both be interesting names considering both have a working relationship with AEW, but Van Dam is featured in WWE 2K24 and has an upcoming figure set to be released by Mattel.
Heyman leads a Hall Of Fame class that so far has Bull Nakano, The U.S. Express and Muhammad Ali.
The new episode of 1 Of A Kind With RVD releases Monday at 4:20 PM ET.
