RVD’s AEW Debut Sparks Excitement, But His Contract Reveals a Brief Stay

Rob Van Dam’s surprise appearance on AEW Dynamite’s 200th episode excited the fanbase. His face-off with FTW Champion Jack Perry has set the stage for a thrilling match on the upcoming episode of AEW Dynamite. Interestingly, RVD’s entrance music was Pantera’s “Walk,” a delightful nod to his ECW days, rather than his well-known WWE theme, “One of a Kind.”

According to PWInsider, RVD’s contract with AEW is a short-term deal, currently only scheduling him for one match against Jack Perry. His wife, Katie Forbes, was also present at AEW Dynamite, but she did not make an onscreen appearance alongside the WWE Hall of Famer. Despite his AEW involvement, WWE continues to advertise RVD as part of their WrestleMania 40 weekend packages in Philadelphia, hinting at a potential appearance at the event.

With this intriguing crossover between AEW and WWE, fans are eagerly anticipating RVD’s clash with Jack Perry and the potential for further interactions between the two wrestling promotions.
