Speaking during an appearance on Insight with Chris Van Vliet, WWE Hall of Famer Rob Van Dam is open to making an in-ring return.

As RVD explained to Van Vliet (as per WrestlingNews.co):

"I definitely have matches in me. I don't know if they'll be in WWE or not. I think probably because, why not? At the same time, maybe there is a why not that I don't know about. Who knows? I go with the flow."

Having left IMPACT Wrestling in 2020, the Whole F'n Show has only competed twice since then; most recently teaming with Bully Ray to take on Matt Hardy and Marq Quen at a BCW show in September that took place at the old ECW Arena.

Van Dam has previously said how he's more or less retired these days and that he has nothing else left to achieve in the business. That said, Mr. Monday Night has likewise always left the door open when making such comments, stating how he's open to stepping in the ring should the right offer rear its head.

Alongside Kane, Molly Holly, Eric Bischoff, The Great Khali and Ozzy Osbourne, RVD was a part of the 2021 WWE Hall of Fame class earlier this year.
