Eric Bischoff Discusses Rob Van Dam Appearing At WCW Show In 1996

Posted By: Ben Jordan Kerin on Oct 29, 2019

Eric Bischoff discussed Rob Van Dam showing up to a WCW taping in 1996 and if there were any discussions between them on the latest episode of his podcast.

At the time RVD was under contract to ECW when he appeared at a WCW Nitro episode. Bischoff said that RVD’s showing up wasn’t something that was on his radar more than any other non-contracted talent showing up at a show.

On Rob Van Dam appearing at a WCW show:

"No, it was business as usual. You know, I had known Rob. Rob and I had had a couple different conversations about possibly doing business together subsequently to 1997. We had at least two or three conversations that I recall, one relatively serious one. So you know, Rob was always kind of interested in what was going on in other organizations, and looking to improve his situation."

On If there was any talks:

“But there was nothing imminent, there were no serious conversations, there was nothing implied by either one of us that would suggest, ‘Hey, if you make a move, we’ll have a great place for you here.’ He was under contract, we had a great roster. We weren’t really looking to add people just for the sake of adding people or taking anyone away from anybody else despite the urban narrative to the contrary. That wasn’t the case.”
