• Rob Van Dam Doesn’t Understand Why Fans Are Shocked By Recent WWE Releases
WWE recently released several main roster and NXT wrestlers and continued by firing various office & non-wrestling employees within the past few days.
WWE Hall Of Famer Rob Van Dam recently addressed that situation on Twitter by tweeting the following:
“Since I signed my 2001 contract with WWE, they’ve always followed WM with a change-up in the roster, which releases many people from their positions. Every year, the social world is shocked.”

Not in WWE but if it had, my jaw wouldn’t have dropped in disbelief.
I never took my job for granted or felt irreplaceable while I was there. https://t.co/w5z5zD1qD2— Rob Van Dam (@TherealRVD) May 26, 2021
Rob Van Dam wrestled for the World Wrestling Federation (later WWE) from 2001 until 2007 and again from 2013 till 2014.
