RVD claims Vince McMahon didn't like this former WWE and ECW star






Former WWE Chairman Vince McMahon had a particular type of wrestler he liked and hired, holding them in higher esteem than others regardless of their abilities, and Hall of Famer Rob Van Dam WWE fame, saw it with his own eyes.

During a recent edition of his “1 of a kind“, RVD was asked why his longtime rival Jerry Lynn failed to break into WWE after ECW folded in 2001. Van Dam explained that McMahon didn’t like the former champion. World Heavyweight of ECW.

“Well, there’s only one way to put it: Vince didn’t like him,” RVD said. “I tried to show Vince, you know, what me and Jerry were doing. So we had a match, it was on Heat, or Sunday Night Heat, I think it might have been announced once, and we had a match and we did our stuff there, it was short, and we weren’t flying into the crowd and the chairs and all that, but we didn’t need it anyway, it was just the icing on the cake, so we did our stuff, and I liked the match, but that’s what I understood was that Vince wasn’t a fan of Jerry Lynn for some reason.”

The match RVD was talking about ended up being Lynn’s penultimate match with WWE, as he was fired in early 2002 after sitting out with a knee injury.

It was also the last time the two wrestled for an entire decade, as they would eventually resume their legendary rivalry in 2011, while in TNA. They had one more match together in 2013, shortly before Lynn retired from action.
