Guest Amy Ace Posted October 2, 2005 Report Posted October 2, 2005 Not sure if this belongs here or the WWE forum. But I never found out why the WWE fired him, I know it was due to some incident at a hotel at WM21, but thats all. My observer subscription ran out the week it happened, so I ever got the full story.
Precious Roy Posted October 2, 2005 Report Posted October 2, 2005 Him and his wife were going through a messy divorce, they got into a big fight in the hotel lobby, Rhino took out his anger on a giant flower pot.
Hunter's Torn Quad Posted October 2, 2005 Report Posted October 2, 2005 He got into an argument with his wife, they were/are in the process of divorcing, over her wanting to take their daughter back to Germany, where she is originally from. They were at the hotel where everyone was staying at for WM XXI, and Rhyno threw this big flower pot around, breaking it. It caused a scene, Rhyno had to be taken to his room by Dreamer and a few others.
Guest *KNK* Posted October 2, 2005 Report Posted October 2, 2005 You can murder someone, injure another worker, get arrested for domestic abuse (twice), get multiple drug rehab stints, show up drunk to the shows, throw a punch at a fan in the crowd... You keep your job. Throw a flower pot in the hotel lobby in front of some fans and some media? Fired the next day.

USC Wuz Robbed! Posted October 2, 2005 Report Posted October 2, 2005 It's not like WWE was heavily invested in Rhyno's character anyways.
Guest Arnold_OldSchool Posted October 3, 2005 Report Posted October 3, 2005 Rhino wasn't being pushed, abd thus wasn't terribly over, so they cut their losses and cut him. He's done enough Raw jobs that I find it hard to take him credibly in TNA.

USC Wuz Robbed! Posted October 3, 2005 Report Posted October 3, 2005 Yeah Im not saying WWE was right in doing what they did, but I guess to them, he wasn't important enough that they could look past a silly incident.
Guest Amy Ace Posted October 3, 2005 Report Posted October 3, 2005 Thanks for the info guys, fired for breaking a flower pot, wow thats a shame.I'm glad he's doing well in TNA tho, I talked to him once in passing, and he was really nice.
RavishingRickRudo Posted October 3, 2005 Report Posted October 3, 2005 WWE was trimming the fat and saw a reason to fire him.

MillenniumMan831 Posted October 3, 2005 Report Posted October 3, 2005 WWE was trimming the fat and saw a reason to fire him. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Speaking of trimming the fat, he must have lost 15-20 pounds since his WWE run and maybe 30 since his ECW days. Seeing him on Impact, he looks great . . . heterosexually speaking . . . not that there's anything wrong with that.
