Rob Van Dam became All Elite on the 200th episode of Dynamite. The Whole Damn Show made his debut on All Elite Wrestling two weeks ago to confront Jack Perry for his FTW Championship. RVD’s debut has made the AEW Universe excited to see the WWE legend’s tactics in the squared circle after a long time. But some fans have been hesitant about his presence in the Jacksonville-based promotion, for whom Van Dam has stated furious words.

The WWE Hall of Famer wrote on X that some fans think he has done wrong for WWE by associating with AEW. He then cleverly revealed how he had permission to do so while bashing the fans by telling them to “eat sh*t”. Rob Van Dam then questioned, “Or would they just move on to puke out the next meaningless bullshit that comes out of their mouths?” Stating that the fans would not keep quiet just to mess with him.

The Whole Damn Show then added that he has figured out how to keep it to himself and not let anyone know. Rob’s true fans have shown support for him in the comments of this tweet and respected his decision to jump ship. Van Dam has been quite active on social media and replies to his haters and trolls who defame him online.

Rob made his in-ring debut for AEW this past week on Wednesday Night Dynamite, battling against Perry. Having kept the FTW Championship on the line, Jack came out successful in the match against Van Dam with his heel tactics. The FTW Rules match made everything seem official, but Perry diminished the spirit of the fight when he used a low blow on the 52-year-old for his victory in the bout.

The WWE Hall of Famer and current AEW star Rob Van Dam has spoken about the wrestling ring in AEW. Speaking on his podcast, 1 of a Kind, RVD spoke about his match with Jack Perry and stated many things about it. The conversation began with the most basic question, stating the difference between the ring in AEW and others.

Dominic DeAngelo, the host of this show, asked him whether he had tried the AEW ropes beforehand or not. Van Dam then regretfully stated that he should have done it as the top rope felt a bit higher for him. He stated that his first appearance in the ring did not quite feel like it, but the match next week made him realize the difference.

RVD also stated that he was told about the apron being a bit wider than usual. He was explained by the ring owner, Bob Rose, that this ring is special due to the kind of wrestling. Rose stated it to be a compression ring with cross support underneath, which makes it a better ring to perform in than the one in WWE.
