Rhino in action 

Rhyno, who’s currently signed with WWE, was recently interviewed by Cult of Whatever about his career as well as the distinction of working with three of the top franchises in the business – reports Wrestlinginc.com.

Rhyno, whose real name is Terence Gerin, spoke about TNA reintroducing ECW: "I don't necessarily think it was ECW, I think it was more the hardcore element and fans really enjoyed that moment.

ECW was basically a group of men and women that were rejected and told they weren't good enough and they were either let go from WCW/WWE or they couldn't even get looked at by those two companies.

ECW took in all the guys that were rejected and we all had something to prove and I think the fans could relate to it."

Rhyno also stated that he had a fantastic time in TNA, where working and interacting with legends such as Ric Flair and Kevin Nash made him a better wrestler.

The 40-year-old also reserved prase for Vince McMahon and his family and stated that there was no one better to run WWE than them, saying: "I always tell people this if there was no Linda McMahon there would be no Vince McMahon, Linda McMahon is so crucial to that business.

She is in the office working every day, it's a family business and they love what they've created. I see the same commitment from Triple H and Stephanie McMahon. When I was working with Stephanie during the invasion angle she explained to me how she used to work in the mail room and different parts of the job when she was younger.

It was the same with Shane McMahon they didn't get it easy; they worked hard for what they've got."

Gerin, who was born in Detroit, began his career with Catch Wrestling Association in 1997, before moving to ECW, where he stayed for a period of two years, after which he signed for the WWE.

His WWE stint lasted for four years, after which he moved on to TNA and then back to WWE in 2015, before which he also had stints on other franchises.
