1:51 RVD's impression of Heyman is almost as good as his impression of Shawn Michaels. Before seeing his shoot interviews, I would never thought that RVD is a really good at doing impressions. :)

@@claytron3000 yes, you can. Its called pronunciation. If I said RVD is THE top 20 GOAT. That's wouldn't make sense because it is singular. But saying he is ONE OF the top 20 greatest to ever do it, makes complete sense. Moron. Dont let wrestling melt your brain bro.

Holy shit same I can only picture him in my head in his singlet lmao.

[@sassytroy8282]

RVD and Big Show must hang out a lot back then. An old co-worker of mine worked at a Toys R Us with me and at a local hotel at night and said one night after a live show in late 01, where I lived he was working a night shift and Big Show and RVD were at the hotel. Big Show wanted liquor but the bar closed so he asked my friend if he could basically buy all the bottles in said bar lol. I guess he and RVD were playing poker in the room. My friend was a huge fan and got Show what he wanted lol.

[@Jukeboksi]

RVD’s the epitome of ’work hard and play hard’

[@stevecrawford5619]

My aunt went to highschool with him, says very little has changed about rob which is actually pretty cool to hear the business didn't change him much.

@captain scentsible39 I’m from mass and i have no idea where John cenas from (either tho I was in his music video at Hampton beach and his dad works in the town hall I live ) I would deff for sure guess Massachusetts just a weird feeling

[@Thinker77]

I was working at the Sears in Daly City, CA. I was shopping at Target on my day off and saw RVD just casually shopping before a show I think. Out of respect, like any true fan would, I quietly went up to him and said " Thank you for what you do...".. Keeping in mind, they are people too, and I know firsthand, it's not easy to blend in and have a normal life. But I knew he appreciated me keeping my voice down to not attract attention and crowds :) even got a photo for Myspace ( I did say it was long ago...)

[@Mandutumuch619]

That’s awesome dude he’s a nice humble guy and amazing wrestler wow MySpace that brings back memories

[@starrstarr7197]

Shout out Daly City

[@MonoCronic]

When I saw Sami Zayn in Moscow long time ago, when he came to a show for a Russian wrestling promotion, I walked up to him and quietly said that I'm a big fan of his work with Super Dragon and other indy stars back then. He legit first played it cool like he has no idea what I'm talking about, but then I told him that there are old ass promos of him without a mask, from something like 2002 - 2004, so I know it's him, otherwise why would a guy talk English in Russia? He giggled a little, shook my hand, and said that he loves and appreciates fans who don't make a scene while seeing their favourite wrestlers. Can't remember if it was 2011 or 2012

[@phillagioia575]

Have met RVD multiple times and always awesome. I will say Spike Duddley is amazing person as well

[@Lostmymind1]

You should meet Ted Dibiase (the original), and Terri Runnels. Out of every wrestler I've ever met, those two have been the absolute nicest people. The worst ones I've ever met have been Low-Ki, and Kevin Nash. Special mention also goes to Scott Hall, who WOULD be on the worst ever, but I never even got a chance to meet him. He just flat out left the table and didn't care that fans were still in line. Low-Ki was just a douche. At a time when he was still a very low level, very niche name in wrestling, he wanted to charge me $50 to take a picture with him. Did not get that picture. And as I was walking away he yells at me "Yeah? Well I'm still the NWA champ!". I think this may have been before TNA had any TV deal. I think they were still doing those weekly PPVs. Kevin Nash just showed up for a payday. Which he's never been shy about saying that's what he's in the business for, but, he looked so dejected just to have to be seen with these fans. Didn't even stand up for pictures you'd take with him,. Didn't do the wolfpac hand sign. He just looked at the camera with a "kill me now" face. And I guess special mention to worst never met ALSO goes to Jerry Lawler, whom my local indy booked FOUR TIMES, and no-showed all four times. Now, if you know Jerry Lawler at all, he claims Cleveland is his second home. He'll always put Memphis above Cleveland, but he always has liked Cleveland. So then to me, it's so baffling why he no-showed the same Cleveland indy FOUR TIMES over the coarse of six years. You'd think he'd just be almost a regular with how much he claims to come to Cleveland....

For years, many so called pro wrestling experts said Van Dam couldn't talk and didn't have enough charisma to be a main event guy. Clearly, this video is proof otherwise. RVD doesn't get the kind of credit for being an innovator in the business and just being unique in a business where cookie cutter types are the norm.

[@acehigh79]

Those people who said RVD couldn't talk never saw his ECW work. He cut some fine promos there. In WWE he wasn't allowed to speak, there's a difference.
