RVD recently appeared on the ‘That 90’s Wrestling Podcast’. On the podcast, RVD revealed the two people that he would like to induct him into the WWE Hall of Fame. The first name was his former employer at ECW, Paul Heyman.

“It kinda has to be Paul, doesn’t it? I think it has to be Paul. Sabu doesn’t talk very good and on the real Paul is the only real producer-slash-agent that’s ever really had my best interests at heart and understood me and because of that I think it would have to be him, as predictable as that is.”

RVD’s second choice was WWE CEO and Chairman Vince McMahon.

“You know who’d be a second choice though? Vince McMahon. Vince. . . . [I did not have a good relationship with Vince] when I was there cause I had my head up my a**, you know. I really like the lot. The older I am, the more Zen I am . . . I was intimidated talking to Vince, still am…He’s the most important person I know.”

WWE Hall of Fame ceremony will air on 6th April, 2021.
