Rob Van Dam recently gave his take on Paul Heyman finally being inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame this year. Being someone who worked with Heyman in the past, he was asked if this induction was well-deserved or not.
The Wiseman of the Bloodline has had a great career even before assuming his current role as Roman Reigns' counsel. He helped build ECW, one of the most iconic promotions of all time. He then went on to manage several icons, including the likes of CM Punk and Brock Lesnar.

RVD praised him as he believed that Heyman could be credited as the man who made ECW possible. He then mentioned that he had a big impact on the wrestling industry.

"Its pretty cool they're giving him his flowers, because he, you know, he was the man. He's the one that made ECW happen, he's the one that really, I mean not just him, but he's the guy that made everything possible, couldn't happen without him. And he changed the business, he set new standards and ECW is because of him, his leadership, his braveness you know, his passion, his artistic direction. All of that is, man...thank you Paul, thank you Paul. And at the same time, since he's been in WWE, man, he just like moves right up." [1:16-2:02]
