Mike Awesome vs. RVD?

[rapidfire187]

Has this match ever happened? I'm fairly certain that it didn't happen in ECW but if I'm wrong, I'd love to see it. I guess that's really the only time it could've happened other than a short period in WWE.

Also what about Awesome vs. Sabu? Seems like it would've been more likely to have happened.

I have never seen one, but a late 90s confrontation at both guys' peeks would have been incredible. Just watch one of the Gladiator bs Hayanusa matches and you'll get a good idea.

I have no idea if they ever had a match but I would think that Awesome and Sabu crossed paths in FMW once or twice. They both teamed with Horace if I'm not mistaken.

They were building toward it until RVD broke his ankle. I *think* by the time he came back Awesome was gone. Would have been epic though.

I saw them face each other at a WWE house show in 2002. RVD won in about 6-7 minutes with the 5 star.

It was when Awesome was working his way back from injury and hadn't returned to TV yet (not that he appeared on TV much when he did return anyway).

I don't think I was ever more excited for a match in ECW than when RVD confronted Awesome and they were going nose-to-nose, and then Sabu and Spike interjected!

Like the Edwin mentioned, by the time RVD came back in May of '00, Awesome was already in WCW thrillin hefty ladies!

Sabu and Awesome wrestled in 1994. The match was so heavily clipped it's not worth hunting down, sadly. Maybe 3 mins long at best.

I think they wrestled on WWE Velocity or something once
