Rhyno was fired from Raw after losing a match against his former tag team partner Heath Slater where the stipulation was that the loser would be fired from Raw.
The match was made earlier tonight by General Manager-Elect Baron Corbin, who said he had been crunching some numbers and found that Raw only had room for one of them. Corbin gave them the chance to quit to save the other's job but they refused and he made the match.
In a twist to the story, Corbin later confronted Slater in a backstage segment and revealed that he's keeping him on the red brand as a referee, not as an in-ring performer.
There are unconfirmed reports that Rhyno announced his retirement to the live crowd during a commercial break after the match. Stay tuned for updates on his retirement.
