Rob Van Dam revolutionized professional wrestling with his unique high-flying style, and he felt that becoming a Hall of Famer was an indication that he indeed had a great career.
Here's what Rob Van Dam told Sportskeeda Wrestling's Riju Dasgupta:
"Well, it's, of course, a great honor to be considered among all those legends that are in the Hall of Fame. It's a personal achievement, you know, having that to cap off my career. It really punctuates everything I've done, and it's also vindication because, you know, I always did things my own way, and a lot of people always never understood me or always wanted to change me. So, that kind of proves everything worked out.
