WWE legend Rob Van Dam reacts to Money in the Bank 2022 controversy

WWE legend Rob Van Dam recently shared his thoughts on the controversial finish in the match between The Usos and The Street Profits at Money in the Bank.

Jimmy and Jey Uso took on Montez Ford and Angelo Dawkins at the recently-concluded Money in the Bank event for the Undisputed WWE Tag Team Championship.

All four competitors brought in their A-game and put on an incredible match that was greeted with a "Fight Forever" chant from the live crowd. However, the match ended in a controversial finish where Montez Ford's shoulder was up while he was being pinned.

Speaking on the subject on Extraaa Dhamaal, Rob Van Dam stated that the finish was clearly the referee's fault. He also questioned whether the finish should count.

"I think that this is something that, after it's reviewed, they [WWE] need to make up for it. I mean, an obvious mistake on the referee's part. If the referee didn't see it, should it count? I guess it always does in wrestling when the referee doesn't see someone's foot on the ropes or the referee doesn't see somebody from the outside interfering[...] So, usually the ref's call is gonna be final but this is totally on the referee," Rob Van Dam said.

The former WWE Champion was in favor of a rematch between the two teams but also wanted the referee to be held accountable for his error.

"I think at least we should set up for a rematch, sure. I mean, what's the harm in that, set up for a rematch and also, the referee should be reprimanded to some extent." [27:25 - 27:35]
