WWE Hall Of Famer Rob Van Dam made his debut in AEW two weeks ago. He found himself working under two guys he had heat with in the past, The Young Bucks, who are the EVPS of the company.
Speaking on his 1 Of A Kind podcast, RVD recalled Nick and Matt Jackson crossing paths with him when they were enhancement talents in WWE. He said that they did not say hello to him, which rubbed him the wrong way.
“I said something about when they walked by me, I guess in WWE, how they didn’t introduce themselves, which to old school rules, that was, I don’t want to call it a commandment.
I guess it is actually, you know, it’s one of the biblical commandments of the dressing room, especially when you’re new. You’re supposed to introduce yourself a certain way, protocol, just like the f*cking mafia.
A made man cannot introduce himself to another made man. A made man has to be introduced by someone else in the middle, and we had our protocols too.
Anyway, I just pointed that out, you know, they didn’t shake my hand or whatever. But I also did throw in something that could be taken as an insult, which I didn’t own up to at first because I was like, all I said was they didn’t shake my hand.
But I did say something about them looking like two high schoolers, so that was something that was provoking, you know, looking back at it. I don’t think I even realized it when I said it, or maybe I did, but either way.
They did the same thing a couple of nights later or something to Booker T and Booker T posted something about, ‘I see with my friend Rob’s talking about. You will shake my hand the next time you walk by me’ or something like that.
Then Goldust had the same experience, and then he said something about it. Then I saw while these two guys were in Japan, one of them is doing the RVD thing when they come out and the other one is doing Booker.
I thought that was great, but that’s the whole heat that I know of anyway. I thought that it was great that they were capitalizing on it.”
