WWE veteran Rhyno was recently honored for his years of work in the professional wrestling industry, mainly TNA Wrestling. Almost two decades ago, Rhyno made a shocking appearance at the Impact Zone and joined TNA. The ECW veteran made a lasting impression in the promotion as he captured the NWA World Heavyweight Championship at Bound for Glory 2005. The 49-year-old star had more stints in TNA and WWE in the coming years.

Today, TNA Wrestling announced Rhyno will be inducted into the Hall of Fame. Moreover, Bob Ryder will also be inducted during the event. Here's the official message from the company on X (formerly Twitter) regarding the star's upcoming induction.

Rhyno is signed with TNA Wrestling and had a few matches on the independent circuit in 2024.


Rhyno held multiple titles in WWE

In 2001, Rhyno appeared for WWE and aligned with Edge and Christian. After Vince McMahon bought Ted Turner's company, the ECW veteran joined forces with Team WCW.

In the initial years, Rhyno held the Hardcore Championship on a few occasions. He even had a few notable feuds against Chris Jericho and Kurt Angle before capturing the WCW United States Championship.

Later, the star left the company and worked in TNA Wrestling for a few years. In 2015, he returned to the Stamford-based promotion and appeared on the developmental brand.

After a short feud with Baron Corbin on NXT, he appeared on the main roster. Later, he formed a new alliance with Heath Slater, and the two became inaugural SmackDown Tag Team Champions.
