The future of Rob Van Dam in WWE is very much up in the air. Apparently, Van Dam rejected WWEs latest contract offer. I have heard RVD is open to the idea of re-signing with WWE, but would like to receive his down-side guarantee while taking a break from the ring, which of course, hasnt been agreed to by WWE. There are various reports regarding the date when RVDs current contract actually expires. I dont have this 100% confirmed, but multiple sources have told me his current WWE contract expires in June or July.

Here are some recent WWE attendance figures and live gates:

- 4/14 Smackdown in Perugla, Italy drew 2,100 paid ($150,000 gate) - 4/14 Raw in Florence, Italy did 2,900 fans ($196,000) - 4/15 Smackdown in Bologna, Italy drew 2,400 fans ($141,000) - 4/15 Raw in Torino, Italy drew 4,070 ($260,000) - 4/16 Smackdown in Genova, Italy did 2,990 paid ($176,000) - 4/17 Raw in Rome, Italy drew 4,100 ($245,000) - 4/18 Smackdown in Rome, Italy drew 4,993 ($280,000) - 4/18 Raw in Forli, Italy drew 2,767 ($159,000) - 4/19 Raw in Munich, Germany did 4,025 paid ($385,000) - 4/19 Smackdown in Ancona, Italy drew 1,285 paid ($89,000) - 4/20 Raw in Mannheim, Germany drew 5,844 ($538,000) - 4/20 Smackdown in Vienna, Austria did 8,530 paid ($757,000) - 4/21 Raw in Bremen, Germany did 4,277 paid ($376,000) - 4/21 Smackdown in Cariff, Wales drew 4,584 [sell out] ($401,000) - 4/22 Smackdown in Birmingham, England did 11,921 [sell out]($832,970) - 4/24 Raw in Paris, France drew 5,349 [sell out] ($389,000)

Apparently the disappointing numbers has cooled off talks of WWE creating international territories.
