Rhino got beat just like everyone else loses to Jarett. Nothing that's gonna make him any special. Well he did get beat quicker then anyone else, so I guess that makes him stand out.

Re-read my post. If you do, you will find that not once do I call Rhino a "main event player."

Rhino has the match won, but the referee is out. AWM come down and put him through a table with their finisher to get Jarrett the victory. Not only does this sound like an entertaining main event, but it gets Rhino credibility, and makes him look more like a main event player.
Jarrett is now free to feud with another more deserving worker, while Rhino goes into a new program to continue his way towards the main event. I wouldn't mind seeing a Rhino/Monty Brown feud.

In fact, I state repeatedly that he was NOT ready to be the World Champion and was NOT ready to carry the company. All I stated is that he is over enough to have an emotional title win at BFG, which he did. Much like Rey Mysterio, Christian, or Booker T currently in the WWE - they could be hotshotted the title and the fans would enjoy it - but they're probably not ready to be champion for the long run.
Being a main event player has nothing to do with being in the main event ALL THE TIME. Look at Kurt Angle, Kane, Big Show, Eddie Guerrero, Chris Benoit, The Undertaker and Randy Orton: all are former World Champions, all have the ability and credibility to main event a PPV, but that doesn't mean they do it all the time.
It simply means that they have face value in the company, and any lower-card feud that they partake in will only be that much better because of that face value.
This is what they have done for Rhino. He is now a former NWA World Champion, who won the title against all odds, and lost the title thanks to help from Jarrett's cronies. You can't try and say that this makes him look weaker than he was before BFG, because that would be bullshit, and there would be no logical reasoning to support that.
He can now feud with someone else and MAKE HIS WAY toward the main event again.
Still sore over the BFG thread? Aww.
