Apparently RVD is a tough bastard

Quote:
Angle claimed he and Rob Van Dam nearly had a legitimate fight backstage after RVD messed up a spot in the ring once. He said RVD got right back in his face and didn't back down from Angle, so Angle respects him. Angle claimed Van Dam once slapped Tazz and Tazz backed down.

Angle doesn't want to piss off his only remaining supplier.

Avenger 12-09-2006 10:52 AM
Woah, Van Dam could pretty much whip any other wrestler's butt.

I'd love to see him fuck up Goldberg.

Xero 12-09-2006 10:56 AM
Anyone could take Goldberg. Just put him in a headlock and he's like a turtle on it's back.

RVD is one of the only WWE guys who could legit make it in MMA IMO.

Avenger 12-09-2006 11:38 AM
He's a comic book reading killer.

lol, that would be awesome but I doubt RVD would even waste his breath on Triple H. I am a huge Triple H fan, always have been. But I would love to see RVD whoop him.

That is an incredibly generalising statement. What form of martial arts are you talking about? If you're going to argue that Tea Kwon Do is better than Greco Roman, I would argue you're an idiot. Especially with the emergance of MMA, you realise that nearly every single MMA fighter in the world takes wrestling, and if you go back to the days before MMA fighters took a multitude of styles and it really was elite members of a specific style fighting another specialist, you'd know that wrestling not only held it's own, but shined and because of that is the basis of shoot fighting around the world.

Rammsteinmad 12-09-2006 05:27 PM
Lol I'm basically saying that I like Rob Van Dam more than I do Kurt Angle...

But that it doesn't matter because in the end Triple H always wins.

Londoner 12-09-2006 06:14 PM
Ignore the one, he gets angry over name plates ffs. :D

BJJ>Wrestling.

but you did enough hyperbole that hopefully anyone worth a shit already figured it out.

Kane Knight 12-09-2006 07:30 PM
For the record, I've taken Ju Jutsu (Not BJJ) and I've taken wrestling, and If I had to choose one, I'd choose Ju Jutsu. Hands down. I'm not saying ameteur wrestling is useless, but Ju Jutsu amd BJJ generally really are better.

For the record, most serious martial arts practitioners were preaching MMA back before there was MMA, much less before it was trendy enough for y'all to jump on the bandwagon. :D

LOL at you acting like that's a fact. You can be such an idiot. For the record personally I'd go with Judo in the real world. Sure one on one contest Ju Justu is ok, but try doing an arm bar when there are six guys around. NOT GONNA GET YOU FAR. Might as well take Tae Kwan Do.

The Naitch 12-10-2006 07:05 PM
just buy a gun

Kane Knight 12-10-2006 08:54 PM
Mmmm...Gun...

How is judo going to help you any better than Ju Jitsu if there's six guys around? I've read that Ju Jitsu is the basis of every martial art. Also, police and military personnel are not trained in Judo, they're trained in Ju Jitsu. I wonder why :roll: There's a big difference between JJ and BJJ.

I have people in my Ju Jitsu class that have taken Judo and other martial arts and they can't believe how much more practical ju jitsu is. They basically wasted their time taking other stuff, from what I'm told.

Krav Maga is all you need.

Now THAT'S what you call a tough bastard.

RVD would've kicked Angle's head into next week.
