''I'm not done with my career'' - Rob Van Dam
Rob Van Dam is in no mood to retire and the 51-year-old star still has a chapter left in his in-ring career.
The former WWE Champion stated that he is booked for around five matches, which may sadly not be seen by a majority of the fans.
However, "Mr. MVP" is open to doing business and would be willing to listen to offers from WWE and AEW.
"So, I'm not done with my career because right now I have maybe five matches, four or five matches, but, and these aren't matches that will be televised, you know by WWE or anyone that I know. So, it probably won't be seen by all the fans worldwide, you know, could that happen? Absolutely," added Van Dam.
