10 Amazing Rob Van Dam WWE Matches

Another Raw ladder match main event for RVD, once again over the Intercontinental Championship. This was during a time when RVD was rather audible in his complaints to WWE management. He felt as though the company weren't using him correctly and that he should be above IC Title level by then.

He even disclosed in one interview around this time that he couldn't even remember how many times he'd held the belt. Ouch. Whether he was miffed with his lot or not, it didn't seem to throw him off his game when it came to performing. He entered a sterling performance against Captain Charisma here.

It wasn't a classic or anything, but it was a whole load of fun and the crowd was into it the whole way. RVD even busted out some rare stuff from his vast bag of tricks, including a gorilla press/moonsault combination. Onto a ladder, natch. Christian, a ladder match veteran, kept the thing together and took some wicked punishment from the notoriously care-free Van Dam.

In the end, it was another win for the Whole F*ckin' Show. Unlike in the Eddie match from a year-and-a-half earlier, he connected with the Five Star Frog Splash off the top of the ladder before retrieving the belt for Intercontinental Title reign number...erm...ah, come on, if RVD himself doesn't know what hope do I have?

Great match, regardless.
