• Rob Van Dam Takes A Shot At Small AEW Wrestlers
As we noted before, a fan tweeted to current Impact Wrestling star Rob Van Dam that he should go to AEW as it would be a better fit for him.
This led to RVD replying the following:
“You should quit telling me what I should do. Especially suggesting a down grade like that.”

Some fans weren’t happy with RVD calling AEW a downgrade and this led to the following tweets from RVD:
People who think their opinions are facts are really ignorant. According to my values- which are the only ones that matter to me-Impact is way better than whatever else you’re marking out on. Most of those All Petite cuts don’t even look like professional wrestlers. https://t.co/Evqe2QgvDM

Truthfully, I was a small 235 lb wrestler because the average guys were closer to 300 lbs and I was the only one creating and doing RVD moves. Now the average wrestler is 190 lbs and they all do my shit. Elite= petite https://t.co/FigBtFqVYt

Duh. I like my business deal. How many years did I spend in other groups that you smarks believe have better conditions?
Just because YOU are aroused at their product. Leaving would be a downgrade. #AllPetiteWrestling #WeWrestleEveryday#adultsworkforpay #growthefuckup https://t.co/vC9SPgbIVx— Rob Van Dam (@TherealRVD) October 31, 2019
