When was the last time Rob Van Dam appeared on WWE television?
Rob Van Dam was a popular name in WWE. However, his last match took place on the August 29, 2014, episode of SmackDown, where he lost to Seth Rollins. But, that was not his last appearance on WWE television, as he kept making sporadic appearances.
Previously, RVD appeared during the 2023 WWE Draft. The WWE Hall of Famer hasn’t made an appearance in the Stamford-based promotion since then. Meanwhile, the 2024 WWE Draft is fast approaching.
It will be really interesting to see if he will make his return to the largest wrestling promotion during the 2024 Draft. On top that, he is not even a full-time part of AEW. Whatever the case, after his latest confession, fans will look forward to more updates about him.
