RVD is widely regarded as one of the most technically skilled pro wrestlers in the industry. The wrestling icon built his legacy in ECW but has now accused Vince McMahon of intentionally trying to destroy ECW.
ECW started in 1994 under Paul Heyman and became famous for its hardcore style. The promotion ended in 2001 but returned briefly as part of WWEs Invasion storyline. Vince McMahon bought ECWs assets in 2003 and began bringing it back in 2005 with new content, merchandise, documentaries, and pay-per-view events. ECW then operated as a WWE brand from 2006 to 2010, featuring a weekly show called ECW on Sci-Fi.
While speaking during an interview on Busted Open Radio, RVD shared his thoughts on why WWE might have revived ECW. He accused Vince McMahon of bringing it back just to ruin it, especially since McMahon didnt like when fans chanted E-C-W! during WWE shows. RVD pointed out that, at one point, McMahon even wore the ECW Championship and replaced the original ECW stars with new wrestlers, which he saw as WWEs way of making a statement.
As for RVD himself, he made an appearance during the November 6 episodeof NXT and helped JeVon Evans in defeating Wes Leebut it was clear RVD wasnt done. Regardless, well have to see when the WWE Hall of Famer will return, as fans want the ECW legend back for more.
