UFC 310 delivered an action-packed night at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada, but a surprise appearance by former WWE Superstar Rob Van Dam added a touch of nostalgia to the event. The WWE Hall of Famer was spotted cageside after the first fight on the main card, and fans couldn’t get enough.
The UFC announce team wasted no time acknowledging the wrestling legend, referring to him as a “WWE Hall of Famer.” In true RVD fashion, he stood up and performed his signature “Rob Van Dam” thumb-pointing pose, exciting the crowd and reminding everyone why he remains a pop culture icon.
This isn’t the first time WWE personalities have made waves at UFC events. Just last month at UFC 309, wrestling power couple Triple H and Stephanie McMahon were spotted cageside at Madison Square Garden. Their presence during Charles Oliveira’s victory over Michael Chandler added a touch of WWE prestige to the already star-studded evening, further showcasing the growing synergy between combat sports and sports entertainment under the TKO merger.
RVD’s unexpected appearance at UFC 310 proved once again that the lines between combat sports and sports entertainment continue to blur in the most exciting ways. Whether it’s the high-flying antics of a WWE Hall of Famer or the strategic presence of Triple H and Stephanie McMahon at previous UFC events, these crossover moments are giving fans of both worlds something to cheer about. One thing’s for sure—every time WWE and UFC collide, the energy is undeniable, and the possibilities are endless.
