Signing Rob Van Dam to AEW would be a major scoop for the company.

Rob Van Dam was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame as part of the Class of 2021. One of the most beloved wrestlers of all time, Van Dam is one of the most memorable characters for his time in WWE and ECW.

He built a whole fanbase for himself from his exploits as the laidback but extremely athletic character he portrayed. RVD is truly "one of a kind" and no one has been able to replicate the success he found in the wrestling ring.

His years in WWE didn't see him achieve the best success in the title picture, but he still managed to win top titles and remain relevant. RVD was part of IMPACT Wrestling until recently. Now that he has been inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame, it's unclear whether he will have a final run with them.

As of this moment, it appears that he is a free agent. AEW does not shy away from signing veterans. Signing Rob Van Dam would allow them to give him a limited wrestling role and let him lead a faction of other wrestlers instead, thereby building their younger AEW roster further.
