Why'd the WWE fire Rhino?

Recommended Posts

Guest Amy Ace

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.

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.

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.

You could do just about anything, but if nobody finds out about it, you'll keep your job.

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.

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.

WWE was trimming the fat and saw a reason to fire him.

 

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.
