The level of skill Rob still is putting in his work ( and being a bit older with age ) is insane. Also guy still looks like he hasn't aged and good to see he is doing good for himself.

@@JohnBrown-pq9tj it’s actually not, but you’re partially correct because there are a huge number of “CBD” companies that do sell snake oil. If you cannot get a COA (certificate of analysis) from a CBD company right up front then it’s likely snake oil. Phytocannabanoids, which CBD and THC are, among others, have been scientifically proven to have many therapeutic benefits. You simply don’t have any clue what you are talking about, and I don’t mean that offensively.

My favorite wrestler of all time the whole F'n Show RVD!!! My first ever pro wrestling show was an ECW house show where Balls Mahoney challenged RVD for the ECW TV Title in the main event. Balls took RVD the distance but RVD hit the 5 Star Frog Splash and sealed the deal sending everyone home happy. He slapped every single person's hand in the audience as Pantera's "walk" played. I was sold on RVD 4 Life at that moment.

Sky's the limit for him and I really can't wait to see where he's at in a couple years. Chris is truly an inspiration for me to work harder and I love his positive quotes about being greatful and having goals and all that stuff. To me what seperates Chris from the rest of them is his passion and dedication bar-none the best out there
