WWE Hall of Famer RVD has quite a few stories up his sleeve, and he recently shared one about getting into a tussle with a controversial figure. The veteran also mentioned that the fight caused him to suffer an injury.
The controversial name being talked about is Phil Baroni, who has been detained over allegations of murdering his girlfriend. Apparently, Phil and RVD were extremely drunk at a hotel in 2016, and they had an impromptu wrestling match, which resulted in RVD injuring his foot.
Speaking in an exclusive interview with Bill Apter for Sportskeeda Wrestling, the WWE legend said:
"Me and Phil Baroni both closed the bar down and got so hammered, and you know how in front of the hotel they have a pond? There's a pond, there's a bridge that goes over the pond into this little pillar. So we walked back over, and Phil and I started wrestling in the pond, completely hammered. Part of the punishment was that I had to see a video of it. My friend recorded it so he could show me how ridiculously you know, embarrassing it was. The other part of the punishment was that I woke up with a broken foot. It was my ankle and foot."

"2016 was a drinking year for RVD. Apologize to anybody that saw me that year, but not really. No I do apologize if I offended you or if I was, you know."
