Rob Van Dam
Rob Van Dam has established himself as one of the most unique and innovative wrestlers in the business. His unique in-ring style has allowed him to get over through his crowd pleasing spots, despite not really being very much above average in in-ring ability.
RVD delivers what the crowd wants, fun spots that stand out and are memorable. He also has a slow, clear promo style that allows fans to easily memorize his catchphrases and say them along with RVD. Things like this will allow RVD to continue to grow as a major star in the business. RVD is hurt by his very small size, but, much like Shawn Michaels, RVD seems to be the exception to the rule that only big men become stars in wrestling. RVD also has some powerful friends backstage in WWE that will ensure that he is going in the right direction.
RVD also has the perfect character for the current audience. Most of the 18-25 males who watch WWE can relate to RVD’s laid back, grunge style character which has allowed him to get very over despite any real stand out moments in his WWE career.
RVD also has youth on his side as well as his ability to connect with the young audience. That, along with his unique style in the ring and on the mic, all play in his favor. He also has some powerful backstage friends and despite his small size, the future looks bright for R-V-D.
