Rhyno On WWE’s Competition: It ‘Fuels Creativity’ And ‘Makes The Product Better’

Wrestling superstar Rhyno recently sat down with VOC Nation’s In The Room podcast to talk about his career after his recent departure from WWE. He sees it as a good thing that he’s getting out onto the indies, understanding that “some wrestlers don’t want to get on the indy scene and hustle.” He’s also a bit proponent of the increased competition that WWE’s been seeing over the past number of months.

It’s very important.  It fuels creativity, and when someone is nipping at your heels you tend to put your best foot forward…and it makes the product better.  Sometimes when a company has such a large lead (over their competitors), you don’t have to throw out all you have.  AEW has all the momentum in the world, Ring of Honor just sold out MSG, New Japan has a TV deal here now, and Impact is doing about 50 shows and live events too…they’re all nipping at WWE’s feet.

When asked what he accomplished in his most recent run with the company, Rhyno stated that he gave out a lot of advice. “I try to help the guys and the girls now try to avoid certain mistakes outside the ring. When a company invests time and money into making a person a start, and then they go out and do something stupid, the company will never recoup that investment. My best advice (to talent) is to walk away from arguments and to stay away from bars.”

The full podcast also goes into Rhyno’s religious inspirations, his favorite moments in his career, and the misconceptions surrounding WWE and wrestler’s health. Thank you to In The Room for transcripts from the podcast.
