RVD is definitely one of the most technically-gifted pro wrestlers to have ever competed in the pro wrestling world. The icon has accomplished a lot in his career and continues to get a lot of respect no matter what. That said, it appears that he explained why he wouldn’t be a good trainer.

Mr. Monday Night became a fan of the pro wrestling world in the 80s and realized he wanted to do it all his life. In fact, RVD was also instructed during the early days of his career to say that he was actually related to Jean-Claude Van Damme.

While speaking on the latest episode of “1 Of A Kind,” RVD discussed his experiences with agents. The WWE Hall Of Famer then explained why he simply couldn’t be a good trainer or agent.

“When I think of the agents, and I don’t mean to insult any, but just from, subjective to my views being there, it was the kind of job that, to me, as talent, they looked kind of like stooges.

And that’s because they seemed afraid for their job and wanted to make the right calls, and hoping the matches they got assigned to were the better matches of the night, which is also subjective.

They wanted to make Vince [McMahon] happy and wanted to be on the winning side of any debate. So I don’t know if I would … outside of that, it could be a real important job.

“I don’t think I’ve got the patience to be a trainer. I could tell somebody one or two times, and then I said it, and I’m like, ‘Dude, I told you not to do that. Why do you keep doing that? I’m done.’ I’m banging my head on a wall. And I hurt people when I’m training them. So I don’t know.”

RVD is also in great shape and is ready to make his in-ring return whenever he feels like it. RVD also had an interesting response to having one final pro wrestling run. It remains to be seen when RVD will finally return to the squared circle.
