Rhino's AEW debut announcement came after the end of his last wrestling stint
Rhino is gearing up to debut in All Elite Wrestling this week. This came on the heels of his last tenure with TNA Wrestling, which concluded last December.
The Manbeast was a cornerstone for TNA for many years. Before that, he had brief stints in the Sports Entertainment juggernaut, WWE. One of his most memorable times was teaming with Heath Slater in the mid-2010s.
With Rhino ready to deliver his first All Elite Wrestling showing in his hometown of Michigan, it will be interesting to see when the Master of the Gore will come around on their shows.
