Rob Van Dam discusses the backstage environment in All Elite Wrestling.
Many fans are still reeling from the shocking AEW debut of 'The Whole F'n Show', which occurred on the August 2, 2023 episode of Dynamite.
Van Dam already has the chance to capture gold in the company, as he is set to take on Jack Perry in a FTW Championship match on the August 9 episode of Dynamite.
On the latest episode of the One Of A Kind podcast, Van Dam was asked to share some insight into the backstage environment in All Elite Wrestling.
“Nothing bad, you know. I’m just trying to think of what I could say about it that would make it different. It’s not the big stressful production of WWE, it’s definitely not a small little indie show either. It’s somewhere in between, but closer to WWE. But when I’ve done TV for international shows that my fans wouldn’t know about, like in the UK or Australia, maybe I would [compare it to that] as far as like the free air, people are walking around genuinely happy to be there. I don’t know how to describe it as being… I can’t think of anything that was like, outstanding.”
