VIDEO: Rob Van Dam Gives Vince McMahon An Interesting Gift

That’s one for the books. There are certain wrestlers in history who are always going to be remembered for a few different things. Some of these things might be a little bit better than others, though it can be interesting to see what happens when those same wrestlers make an appearance after being away for a bit. That was the case recently, and one of them had a gift for one Vince McMahon. A new video has been released on Twitter, featuring former WWE Champion Rob Van Dam backstage at the WWE Hall of Fame induction ceremony earlier this year. Van Dam meets with McMahon and after saying hello, presents McMahon with a package of his officially branded RVD420 rolling papers used for smoking. McMahon sees what they are and laughs while accepting them. This is one that almost has to be seen to be believed. Check out the clip, plus some of Van Dam’s better moments in the ring: [This post contains video, click to play] [This post contains video, click to play] [This post contains video..

Money in the Bank 2017 – Predictions & Analysis

<p><strong>Hype Bros vs. The Colons</strong></p><p>With <strong><a href="http://www.ringsidenews.com/wrestler/zack-ryder" title="Zack Ryder">Zack Ryder</a></strong>’s recent return to WWE programming after a lengthy layoff due to injury, The Hype Bros have re-emerged as a threat in the Smackdown Live tag team division. Mojo Rawley’s momentum has been stalled since winning the Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal at WrestleMania this year, and Ryder’s return could not have come at a better time for Rawley.</p><p></p><p>After debuting on Smackdown Live as The Smoking Guns 2.0 several weeks ago, The Colons have yet again found themselves floundering in the lower mid-card. <strong><a href="http://www.ringsidenews.com/wrestler/primo" title="Primo">Primo</a></strong> and <strong><a href="http://www.ringsidenews.com/wrestler/epico" title="Epico">Epico</a></strong> are vastly underrated in the ring, but their presentation on WWE programming has robbed them of any and all credibility they had as a legitimate threat in the tag team division. This does not bode well for their chances tonight.</p><p>Speculation has already started that The Hype Bros’ run as a tag team will be short lived, with Zack Ryder set to turn on Rawley in the near future. This certainly seems to be a safe bet, but I don’t see it happening tonight. This match will serve as a momentum builder for them before their eventual split, which will make Ryder’s heel turn (or maybe even Rawley’s heel turn?) all the more dramatic when it finally occurs.</p><p><strong>Winners: The Hype Bros </strong></p>

Jim Ross Talks Addiction to Ambien & Xanax

<p>While speaking to The AV Club, Jim Ross talked about his book that will cover his past drug addiction and made the following remarks:</p><p><em>“You’re <strong><a href="http://www.ringsidenews.com/tag/going/" title="going">going</a></strong> to hear about my addiction to drugs. I was addicted to Ambien and Xanax, together, with <strong><a href="http://www.ringsidenews.com/tag/crown/" title="Crown">Crown</a></strong> Royal. I was on Uranus, and Pluto, and Neptune, and everywhere else late at night. [Because] I had severe sleep apnea – and still do – I stopped breathing 99 times in an hour in a sleep test. So I wasn’t in real great shape with that deal.”</em></p><p><em>“Ambien is a temporary medication for insomnia. Temporary. Not ten years. …It’s not a [revolutionary] <strong><a href="http://www.ringsidenews.com/tag/story/" title="story">story</a></strong>, it’s eye-opening, and shows it can happen to anybody. It was like smoking, I just decided one day to quit smoking, and stopped. Done, I’m done.”</em></p>
