During his recent guest spot on the “Insight” podcast, the professional wrestler Rob Van Dam discussed his potential retirement from the professional wrestling industry.
Van Dam mused, “I don’t [think I am], and I don’t think I will [retire]. That’s how I feel right now. I feel like even if I don’t take wrestling bookings anymore. I don’t think I’ll make a big deal out of retirement. Because when wrestlers retire they end up coming back and wrestling anyway. ‘No, I want one more match.’ For me, that is completely eating up the credibility that I had in wrestling retirement matches. I doubt that I’ll ever feel like, ‘No, I’m going to be different. I never want to wrestle right now. I’m done.’ I just see me is just going with the flow. And someday, when you say, are you still wrestling? I might say, It’s been six years, and then I might have a match.”
Presently, Van Dam is under a WWE Legends contract, however, he has also participated in bouts for AEW.
