Honestly he needs a lot of polishing but I think Hernandez could work a good feud with Del Rio. The High Class guy vs the Man of the People. That would get my interest.

I don't think they have the time to polish him as I was rather surprised to read that the guy was 39.

Not suprised either are going to be hnest, Henandez looked great in LAX but since then he's been terrible (although I heard he was super over in AAA)
RVD got a good pop, and I was glad to see him but recently he's just been going through the motions.

Didn't realise that Hernandez was that old either.

After seeing Abyss' new gimmick could he be on the way out as well?

RVD might want a WWE return, but I don't see why the company would be interested in him, they never saw much in him when he was in his prime and certainly he has gone down hill since.

Hernandez is a sad case he had or has a tone of talent and just needs better direction.

What do you mean didn't see much in him?

He won the IC title multiple times, was part of 3 successful tag teams, made Booker and DDP invasion after thoughts for the alliance, won MITB and kick started a brand, and was given two world titles at once. RVD had the world in the palm of his hands there but dropped the ball. That said wwe never missed an opportunity to put him on ppv, tv, and sell honey merch for him. The only guy who admittedly never saw anything in him was HHH, and even he admits that not putting him over was more so about refusing being the guy who drops the whc to a fuck up (funny because he went to bat for Jeff lol)

RVD has a goos past and would be a good guy to use for one off matches etc. But he isn't what he used to be and hasn't been performing well for years

In 2000 and 2001 Hernandez worked for the WWF as a jobber, appearing on episodes of WWF Jakked and wrestling in dark matches. He debuted in TNA back in 2003.

He has a great look and size and someone like him would work well in the WWE, yeah his age might not be too good but I don't see him as a main eventer so it won't matter that much. Upper midcard probably.

Hernandez wouldn't get past the physical in WWE.

RVD is not getting any yonger and should go make a sequel to Wrong Side of Town

Hernandez & Homicide should go to WWE and form a tag team again. That'd be a boost.

If only, if only... ROH is also a good spot for Hernandez

Hernandez and Hunico can form a good stable.

What I mean is that for most of his run there he was held back in a watered down version of the character he played in ECW and was never truly treated as a main eventer. Much like someone like Jericho he was stuck in the same spot for years. Some of this Van Dam's own fault without question, but the fact is WWE never saw much in him from the start.
