Rob Van Dam picks his choice of opponent from the current WWE roster

RVD recently named Ricochet as his dream opponent from the current roster. The WWE Hall of Famer extolled the high-flying former Intercontinental Champion, who has grabbed the attention of many fans with his incredible in-ring work.

During an exclusive interview with Sportskeeda Wrestling's Riju Dasgupta, Mr. Monday Night mentioned that Ricochet was seemingly inspired by his unique wrestling style.

"I think I'd like to wrestle Ricochet. I think that'd be pretty good. I'm sure he was inspired by watching me, and he took the gymnastics to a different level. He's impressive to watch. In a world where I said it's hard to stand out now by doing moves because there's so much that's done (...) people are doing springboard gators to the floor during the second match of the card," said Van Dam.

The WWE Hall of Famer praised Ricochet for his high-octane arsenal, proving himself to be one of the best in the business. A potential dream match between the two could help Rob Van Dam pass the torch to the SmackDown star in the future.
