Tony Khan has addressed the AEW future of WWE Hall of Famer Rob Van Dam, following his recent appearance on AEW Collision.
Following his FTW Championship match with Jack Perry on the August 9 edition of Dynamite, RVD made his second in-ring appearance for AEW on the September 23 Collision show.
During this episode, the wrestling veteran teamed with HOOK to defeat Angelo Parker and Matt Menard.
Khan discussed RVD’s future in the company during Tuesday’s pre-WrestleDream media call, saying:
“RVD was a great part of it, the Michigan fans were very excited to see him, and he got a great reaction from a live arena, and the show did a great rating.”
“I think he’s been here on a case-by-case, show-by-show basis. We loved having him, I would certainly be very open to Rob returning in the very near future.
“As we said when I saw him this past weekend, he’s doing a great job and we’d love to have him back. Great to have Rob here anytime when he’s available to do it and anytime it makes sense for everyone.”
Also in the media call, Tony Khan provided clarification on AEW’s ownership, and addressed rumors that he has acquired NJPW.
