The love of comics is one that is built in childhood. Van Dam echoes this sentiment as he fondly recalls purchasing Ghostrider
#27 when he was seven years old.
People say when you met Rob Van Dam, you have met his wife...for they both have the same laid-back personalities.
A year after their wedding ...on July 11, 1999 ..Rob took his new wife for a ride on a Jet-Ski...he was driving when
another Jet Skier rammed into them...Rob got away without injury...but. Sonya's left leg was completely ripped to pieces...her
leg will never make a full recovery...
Sonya is 26 years old and goes to heavy grueling therapy daily still after two and half years....just to keep the leg
from Arthritis...which they are trying to delay from setting in....
On top of all this ..Rob had no insurance...so Paul Heyman paid the bulk of the medical and hospital bills...their close
friend is Spike Dudley who tells this story of a loving couple ...to this day are completely devoted to each other...women
go up to Rob at events but, he does not bat an eye....Rob and Sonya are a very close couple. She credits and appreciates
all of Rob's fans who e-mail her daily to keep her spirts up. Sonya and Rob met through a mutual friend at a party....and
she had no idea what he meant when he said he was a wrestler...She said..."You mean like a Hulk Hogan kind of thing.?"
