RVDs TNA run was actually the first time I saw him as a kid, he was one of my favourites from that era of TNA and seeing some of these matches brings back some good memories even if looking back these matches were subpar.
Well to be fair they used them to their best strategy by keeping the wwe guys as over as possible..... Because it added to their own overness as near equals and almost as over.....
I’ve never really watched TNA, but I recently discovered your channel and I just wanna say thank you so much for these videos. They are informative and hilarious at the same time.

idk what it is about your videos man. i only followed WWE from 2005 til about 2008-9, but all of your videos, TNA or WWE or w/e, are so watchable and rewatchable. keep up the good shit dude :D
Huge RVD fan here, but imo him being Mr TNA was just wrong. I believe what made Christian's TNA run good was how even though he initially never lost by pin fall as champion, he still wrestled like he did in WWE where he had to overcome the odds. Same with Rhyno. Kurt was already a main eventer in WWE so his reign meant nothing to me. RVD's on the contrary just felt weird to me. He deserved more in WWE like Christian, but the "more" he got in TNA could've been better had he not been booked like a god most of the time.
when i was a kid playing ps2, i always pick RVD because he has the best turnbuckle moves and he is the fastest turnbuckle climber. even faster than mysterio
The newer WWE games actually have his turnbuckle climbing animation as an option in create a moveset so you can have any custom wrestler jump on the ropes like RVD nowadays.
The Van Baconator, as Maffew would refer to his entrance theme. RDV didn't want to get pinned to the point he would rather vacate the belt due to an absurd beating via Janice than put anyone over.
The scene of hulk Rob Jeff and abyss coming out of the hummer cracks me up everytime. In any universe I just can't picture these guys inthe same group. Especially abyss, can he even drive.
Now I'm just imagining them in the hummer waiting outside Jeff's place to pick him up. "Where is this guy... he said he was just finishing a smoke 30 minutes ago..."
Yeah Rob was the no job and he was just going through the motions in TNA RVD will still be one of my favs, I guess it helps that I’m from the Battle Creek, Michigan area and he’s my local big name
One takeaway for me with all of MarkyD's vids as someone who never watched one episode of TNA or Impact is just how amazing AJ Styles was/is. I honestly believe he is the best worker of all time.
_Hell yeah MarkyD❕_ Finally, one of the MOST anticipated videos on this channel to date. We all knew it was only a matter of time. I've been REALLY looking forward to watching it... let's go! 👍🏻😎👍🏻 #SHUVitSQUAD4Life
@@Markyd123 I had plans with a friend to go shooting and I rented out a couple of stalls for an hour with unlimited ammo and this asshole calls me and says that his ex is wanting to talk to him about things and he can’t go. I’m still going but I was heated. I saw you posted and it was cool because I love your videos. Hey anyway you can do ROH on the patriot when he was in wwf in the 90s? He was a victim of cliq politics but he was decent in the ring. Might get you that A Rating you want.
@@DannBlueEyes in 06 he asked to have a part time contract, which prior to brock no one has managed to really get. But that got denied, and then he got drafted to ECW. which made him feel like the wwe didnt value him highly. Vince tried to get him help but Kurt was knee deep in drugs mainly PKs couldnt understand vince and just couldn't handle full time anymore. basically he had addictions so he asked for his release. Jericho recalls Vince saying "we can't let an Olympic gold medalist die on our watch" TLDR : he was addicted asked for his release
RVD is a strange man. He seems like a cool guy outside of the ring. But I hear hes super hard to work with and he refuses not to work stiff. He also refuses to accept or listen to criticism. He obviously deserves a HOF induction, hes a legend, but it's strange to me how serious maybe a little too serious how much he takes himself when it comes to his image, spot, and the business
To me RVD is like Kane. In the sense that you can use them however you want but it only takes a few big wins to make them credible main events again. We kinda need more guys like that, not every main eventer should hog the spotlight all the time imo.
Nigel McGuinness gets the top spot in the World title rankings and he gets buried big time, sorry brudda, nobody wants a Nigel McGuinness world title run!
Rob himself has come out and said that he was on autopilot on his first TNA run. AJ iirc even referenced it when they had him do a worked shoot promo in the build to his BFG match against Bully Ray
Total Nailed At-one Hawk... Rob was the worst at the time and I have know idea why either. Any idea why he didn't turn heel with the Immortal faction? It would have made sense to bring their golden boy with them instead of Hardy.
He made an appearance on AEW of all places of course for a pay day, but then receeded into obscurity again. Is he working backstage on creative or is their creative staff that stupid to not use him well. He's got way more charisma and is more over than even their 4 pillars and current champion.
for RVD's heel run he should go by "Bob Dam", come out to no music with just plain black tights and only do chinlocks/headlocks. Shave his head bald too
I find the No Job Rob thing funny. When he returned to WWE in 2013 all he did was job, unfortunately.
From never jobbing in TNA to always jobbing in the WWE. How sad
Wwe rarely pushes superstars in their 40s
Yeah, RVD did the JOB to Del Rio a lot back then.
@@itachi-kun7736 Triple H, Undertaker, Brock Lesnar, John Cena, Shawn Michaels, AJ Styles, Edge, Randy Orton, Batista, and Goldberg.have all had big pushes in and past their 40’s.
I think he had heat with management is why they did that to him.

Ahhh you beat me to it I was going to comment the same thing😂😂😂
It's just that he is in the WWE Hall Of Fame
They did the same with Christian vs Kazarian ahah
I just keep getting lucky with the timing
@@Markyd123 what about his loss to Kenny king you forgot that too he was the x division champion
I remember how mind boggling it was to see Hulk Hogan, Sting and RVD on the same show. Icons of the WWF, WCW and ECW in TNA!🤯
Prioritizing this oldheads from other promotions is why TNA fell. They were doing the same thing WCW did, and brought in the same damaging elements like Russo, Bischoff and Hogan.
Yep the big 3
Idc what anyone says those were great times!! As a kid seeing all those legends was amazing. Went to like 8 shows and Hardcore Justice summer of 2010
“Then the ECW guys came for the 59th time” 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Hardy can't beat Rob. RVD beat him in 3 different decades on TV. And they could still hang on a 4th decade, if WWE lets them!
@@fillgollinsdergroarticheme8442 yeah but Hardy beat RVD in two of those same decades
If you’re trying to age yourself twice as fast & bring on an early death, sure
If RVD didn’t f**k up and get pulled over with weed in the car, I think he could have had a long run with the WWE title.
Bruh imagine getting busted for weed 🤣
FYI if he didnt get busted he was gonna drop the belt to edge at Saturday nights main event
So he would've held it for 12 more days

Haven’t watched the video yet but I’m already going to give you a like just cause you’re The Hawk
A company finally decided to book RVD as a main eventer? I’m not mad about that.
"No job Rob" is so ironic to me. He spent his last runs with WWE jobbing and putting people over. Literally nothing but that 😂
You mentioned Abyss without calling him an idiot 😂

You should definitely do another one of these on Rob just burying the entire X-Division.
Well the reason why RVD really never won the wwe title often was because he kept on getting high and failed the wwe drug test
And the one time he was wwe/ecw champion he got pulled over with sabu for drugs and lost his titles because of it
RVD Should have stayed Clean, so he can keep his Double Titles.
But Randy actually did weed
