Actually I just did a search, WWE doesn't own the name or character but they do still own the rights to all product licensing.

The character/name one was actually canceled in February of this year.

They dont have RVD trademarked though, and its tough to get initials trademarked frankly.

RVD in ecw and in gimmick matches is great. But any other time, his matches just seem really formulaic, and predictable to me.

Pretty pumped to see him in some sort of hardcore match with Abyss though.

Keep in mind that RVD is now 39 years old....and so he may not even be physically capable of doing some of the stuff that he did before.

Why are people complaining about this? I don't remember anyone talking about ratings going up just because Rob Van Dam was there, yet people are criticising the signing on that basis? Look, RVD is one of the biggest free agents still in the business, so it'd be a great move to sign him. He literally fits any division TNA has.

I would love to see him in Ultimate-X at Destination X.

I like Bischoff. I feel like it's Hogan and his cronyism that will fuck up the company. You lose Awesome Kong now Bubba's back? Nasty Boys getting any form of tv time. Shit like that. Other than that, I think they can bring some positives to the table.
