Dude should just go away permanently before WWE completely tarnishes his name. Heath Slater has had more wins in the past two weeks than RVD has had since his return. Let that sink in...

He's gotta build up his leg strength now after that poor demonstration of his on Raw

He looked really slow on Raw against Rollins. I don't know if he is hurt or what but he really seemed to be struggling from what I could tell. I don't mind RVD coming in and out the way he does. If he needs a break he should take it. I know Rollins was a big RVD fan growing up, so I have to imagine it was a dream for him to get those matches on WWE TV.

You are an idiot, the only reason he came back was to build up younger wrestlers, just like Jericho is doing. If you are going to put stars over, you have to have the person putting people over get a win every here and there to make them look like a threat. Now that everyone beats him it's just a normal win. Yeah I get they want him to put people over, but it doesn't do much justice if he isn't getting a win every here and there. So before you call me an idiot, reassess yourself. Calling someone an "idiot" for an opinion is completely unnecessary.

Yeah and the sky is blue, grass is green, & Flair is currently Woo'ing somewhere out there.

Couldn't agree more with the win part, a win over RVD is like winning a game when you're the only player, sure you won but what does it matter to anyone/thing? They should have him go away, get better psychically and come back to have a couple of wins against whoever he's putting over. He looked tired out on Raw and it would benefit everyone if he got healthier.

I'd say RVD's career is currently running on fumes, but that would be seriously overestimating the strength of fumes.
Retire.

I think his next run should be his last, and there should be some more thought put into it. No sense at all in having him be there just as a jobber who looks worse and worse every time he goes out to the ring.
If he does a run for a few months next year, I really hope it means something. This one has been really damaging to his star power, I feel.

This one has been really damaging to his star power, I feel. Yep. I won't even notice if he takes time off, because I hardly remember that he's around. RVD's situation can't be compared to Jericho's right now, because Jericho is involved in a program with a distinct purpose. RVD has been floating around doing absolutely nothing, only occasionally serving as enhancement talent for the likes of Seth Rollins, or losing to Del Rio for 30th time. It's pointless, and it's not doing anyone any favors.

Pick a guy they're putting over big time, and build that feud (including keeping the veteran strong). RVD should have done that this year with Cesaro really, once they decided Cesaro was the Heyman guy. They could've had a real feud for a couple months, the RVD/Heyman backstory certainly provides enough fuel for it... Instead of Van Dam just losing to Cesaro all the time with no story, then losing to everyone else every week.

Have a plan ready and not just have him wander listlessly through the mid card, collecting a paycheck.

RVD hasn't had a storyline since coming back in April, which pisses me off. If this is true, I hope he comes back with something to do. The only good thing about RVD coming back, was seeing RVD compete.

See you at the 2015 Royal Rumble RVD! Perfect timing in my opinion. RVD should have one last Wrestlemania and probably return around Money in the Bank again to have his final 3/4 month run. I was just about the biggest RVD fan there was but it just hasnt been the same since he's been back. He had that one great match against Jericho the night after his initial return but everything since then has fell somewhat flat.

Are you sure you have the right return?
