RVD is definitely one of the most technically-gifted pro wrestlers to have ever competed in the pro wrestling world. The icon has competed in several promotions such as ECW, WCW, WWE, and IMPACT Wrestling during his career which has lasted over thirty years.
The AEW All Out media scrum ended in complete chaos after CM Punk went on a scathing rant on Colt Cabana, Hangman Page, and The Young Bucks, destroying everyone.
Things have somewhat mellowed down since then. Punk also worked with RVD in WWE’s version of ECW. While speaking at an “Inside The Ropes” live show in London, RVD recalled the time Punk acted as a locker room leader.
“I’ve [been] gone for 30 days, when I came back it was the first show back and CM Punk approaches me at the building and he says, ‘Hey, Rob, I just want to let you know, I’m going to have a team meeting in the dressing room.’
He says, ‘Of course, this has nothing to do with you. I just want to tell you so you know, like when everyone’s back there and stuff.’ I’m like, ‘What? You’re locker room leader? Like what happened?’ But some people are comfortable just taking that position of control and moving forward and I don’t know. I kind of think he’s one of them.”
EC3 also feels that AEW has a severe lack of leadership following the brawl at AEW All Out. We will have to wait and see whether AEW will be able to recover from all the negative press after the brawl or not.
