During a recent appearance on the “Party with Marty” podcast, Rob Van Dam (RVD) commented on hearing stories about AEW wrestlers disregarding the advice of veterans, which made him question their level of respect towards them.
This has been said publicly by wrestlers such as Arn Anderson and Tully Blanchard.
The Whole F’n Show said, “I heard Tully Blanchard say it, and I’m told Arn Anderson said it too, although that is hearsay, that the young guys don’t want their input ever. [They] never ask them ever for any help or anything on their matches and stuff … I mean, that’s important to me. It makes me think, do they think they know it all? Do they not respect them enough? But also, it’s awkward for them because they’re not taught like us to go around and shake everyone’s hand and stuff.“
