RVD Says He’s Always Planned To Write A Book, ‘I’ve Went Through Different Stages Of Development’
Rob Van Dam wants to write a book.
Van Dam is currently in the twilight of his in-ring career, a career that has lasted for over thirty years at this point. ‘The Whole F’n Show’ surely has plenty of stories to tell, as he has spent time in WWE, ECW, IMPACT Wrestling, WCW, All Japan Pro Wrestling, and most recently, All Elite Wrestling.
In a new interview with Denise Salcedo, Van Dam revealed that he wants to write an autobiography after being asked what is still left on his bucket list.
“The autobiography. Probably like four or five times a year, I have people approach me and [ask] if I’ve ever thought about — they’re writers or they’ve written someone else’s book or whatever. Yes, I’ve always thought and planned on doing a book, I have gone through different stages of development. I met with book agents, I’ve considered ghostwriters instead of writing it myself because I do like to write, but will I get it done? [shrugs] What are the other advantages to having a ghostwriter and is independent publishing just as good nowadays? Anyways, it is something that if I don’t do, hopefully somebody will find my records with all the bull crap they add. But if I don’t do it, it’s just because I never got to it. Like I said, I’ll be around till I’m at least 150. That is near the top of my to-do list, it is something that I work on now, not as passionately as when it was at the top of my list, but I have a plethora of stories that nobody has even heard.”
Elsewhere in the interview, Van Dam recalled meeting Jack Perry when he was a kid. Fans can learn more by clicking here.
