Rob Van Dam Says AEW Star Is A Version Of Him

Rob Van Dam feels a connection with one of AEW’s biggest stars.

Orange Cassidy has been winning fans and winning championships since signing with AEW in 2019. The star’s unique approach and laid-back personality have set him apart from the competition, and he stands as a two-time International Champion, as well as being the current title holder.

Speaking on his 1 of a Kind podcast, veteran Rob Van Dam gave his thoughts on Cassidy, who he believes is a version of himself.

“Cassidy is a version of me, you know, because he’s so laid back and relaxed and doesn’t give a f**k. I see that. When I first realized, you know, what was important to this guy, you know, his value system. Just looking at Orange Cassidy, I was like, yeah, they took one side, one perspective of me and fu**ing really exploited it into a new character and I like it.”
