For some reason, I don't think Matt Hyson (is that Brother Runt's real name?) was actually contacted by the WWE. If he were, I actually think he'd be put on SmackDown! to help the dying Cruiserweight Division. I am aware the WWE doesn't give two shits about the division, but they need faces to throw at Gregory Helms and fast.
If I were Rhyno, I'd have chosen the WWE. Huge exposure, probably a main event feud with Rob Van Dam over the ECW Title (which Rhyno never lost) and another chance to build the legacy that looked within reach for Rhino until he injured his neck and the WWE fucked his push up. With Heyman behind him, Rhyno would likely find himself eventually on the RAW or SmackDown! roster Goring his way through main eventers. I'm serious, Rhyno has the potential to be huge.
Hopefully he only said that he turned down the WWE's offer under Heyman's advice, so when Rhyno does appear and Gores the fuck out of somewhere, it is a huge surprise. I hope TNA does grow as a company, but they aren't going to do it with Rhino. Christian Cage is their current "former WWE Superstar" toy. I don't see that ending anytime soon. Especially since they can get one of their own over, in Bobby Roode going over Rhino at two seperate PPVs.
I'm still expecting the Man Beast to be scouting either RVD or Sabu for The Gore on ECW TV one night soon.
