“The first time that I talked to Tony Khan about doing this (working with AEW), a factor was that I still have a WWE Legends deal,” he said. “So, my use to AEW would be limited as far as they can’t put me on video games, action figures, stuff like that. So, you could say it’s limited on both ends or you could say I got both ends going, best of both worlds. Or you could just say RVD does whatever he wants.”
RVD last wrestled for AEW on the April 20 episode of AEW Rampage. There, he beat Komander, Isiah Kassidy, and Lee Johnson. There is no word on his future with the company.
