Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Terrance Guido Gerin (born October 7, 1975) is an American Professional Wrestler from Dearborn, MI best known for his work in ECW, WWE and TNA as either Rhino or Rhyno. He debuted in 1994 as Terry Richards, competing in the Detroit independent scene and doing some TV jobs for WWE and WCW. He changed his name to Rhino Richards and, along with working in the Midwest and Canada, also competed for the Catch Wrestling Association in Austria/Germany. In 1999, he debuted in ECW simply as "Rhino," as muscle for Steve Corino in Corino's feud with Taz. He would go on to hold the ECW World Television Title twice and would be the final ECW World Heavyweight Champion. After ECW closed, he signed with WWE and debuted, renamed "Rhyno," on the March 19, 2001 Raw, aligning himself with his old allies Edge and Christian from their days in the Canadian indy scene. He would switch to the Alliance.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })Over his time in WWE, he would hold the WWE Hardcore Title three times and the WCW United States Heavyweight Title once. After WWE released him in 2005, he went off to TNA where he reclaimed the original spelling of "Rhino." He would hold the NWA World Heavyweight Title once. He later spent time in Ring of Honor before going back to the independents. He later returned to WWE in 2015, and became one half of the first ever Smackdown Tag Team Champions alongside Heath Slater. He was released from WWE in 2019, and has since returned to TNA (now known as Impact Wrestling).

The Worf Effect: Despite once being the face of TNA, his record in the company isn't always so impressive. He held the NWA World Heavyweight Title belt for less than a month and in his first two years in the promotion he averaged about one win every 120 days.

No-Sell: No sold a series of punches and elbows from Rockstar Spud. Then Spud started doing knife edge chops to which the crowd chanted "Woo" but Rhino still wasn't selling anything. Rhino wrestled New Jack during late period ECW. Jack spent most of the match beating him with every weapon available, only for Rhino to no-sell a guitar to the head and hit the Gore for the win.

Determinator: His first NWA World Title reign in TNA came on perhaps the greatest showing in Rhino's career. At Bound for Glory 2005, Rhino was already booked for a four-way "Monster's Ball" hardcore match against Raven, Jeff Hardy and Abyss. Not only did he win that match, but due to Jeff Jarrett's scheduled challenger Kevin Nash being unable to compete, he later won a 10-man Gauntlet for the Gold match for the #1 contendership, then beat Jarrett to win the title, all on the same night, undergoing a Heel–Face Turn in the process. He would drop the title less than a month later, but he'd remain a face for some time to come.
