Rob Van Dam announced for AEW Collision on April 20

On a holiday for marijuana enthusiasts, Rob Van Dam will return to AEW Collision.

AEW head Tony Khan announced on X Friday that the former WWE and ECW star will be part of the company’s Saturday, April 20th edition of Collision — the location of which hasn’t been revealed.

The 4:20 time is a long-standing cultural nod to smoking marijuana with April 20th annually recognized by the industry with festivals, events at shops, and the like. Van Dam has long been associated with marijuana with VICE News even calling him a “weed icon” in this feature.

Van Dam will make his next appearance for AEW on this Wednesday’s Dynamite from Tulsa, Oklahoma, as he teams with Hook and Hangman Page against AEW World Champion Samoa Joe, Swerve Strickland and Brian Cage.

The 53-year-old made his AEW debut last August in a match against Jack Perry. Since then, he has wrestled three additional times and aligned with Hook due to the ECW connection with Hook’s father Taz.

Van Dam last appeared on the January 31st Dynamite, losing a hardcore match to Strickland.
