Are Rhino & Joe Legend related ?

[David Bazzy Basnett]

I am sorry , if this is not where this question should be ? . But after watching TNA Sacrifice PPV it suddenly got me wondering is Rhino (or Rhyno) related to ex-WWE basically jobber Joe Legend ? . It looks like it ? . Can anyone help me ? .

No, Legend is originally from Toronto Ontario Canada born and raised and is actually an amazing wrestler until the WWE once again hooked their claws into this great entertainer and made him look useless and pathetic to the casual wrestling fan. And Legend absolutely hated that gimmick. He also was buried by Jeff Jarrett in TNA as well. When he clearly showed his wrestling aptitude.

The only real affiliation Legend has with Rhyno is when he Rhyno, Edge, Christian and Bloody Bill Skullion were apart of the THUG Life faction.

What gimmick did Legend have in WWE?

[canadianpittbull]

He was unfortunately Just Joe. The guy who walked around in the red shirt and would let wrestlers in on the locker room politics. The gimmick quickly buried him.

I have never enjoyed Joe E Legends wrestling or character. I have not liked any of the matches that I have seen him in. I never saw him back when he was in THUG life though. Maybe he was better back then.

Well he is a solid wrestler he just doesn't get the ability to display his talents on a televised scale. I think that is why he is not seen as being very good. He didn't get a fair shake in the WWE or TNA either so that can hurt a wrestler especially from the viewing of casual wrestling fans who may only watch the televised and pay per view shows and even then doesn't mean that the wrestler will get a fair shake at displaying his/her talents.

It is mostly on the independant circuit you will see wrestlers display their abilities. There are moves and things wrestlers can do that may never be seen by a television audience because it may not fit with whatever the gimmick of the week is so these wrestlers suffer from not being able to show off their full ability and talent.

Thus some wrestlers never really get the respect they deserve unless they pull off highspot after highspot then they get acknowledged. Whatever happened to just appreciating a wrestlers overall abilites and being allowed to put those said abilites on display? Not every wrestler fits this but there are many that do.

I saw a house show in Sudbury where Randy Orton and Brock Lesnar put on one heckuva show, before they hit tv and all I can say is WoW! Brock was pulling off some very impressive moves and Orton well Orton was doing stuff he never does on tv. Then someone yelled something at Hebner and he almost got into a fight with a fan as did The Fink! It was pretty hilarious!

Not venting or getting upset just posing a question or an observation.

I am by no means a casual wrestling fan. I have tons of tapes from all over the world and all over the indy scene.
Joe E Legend is a good wrestler but I just get kinda bored by his matches. To me he just seems average. I just don't feel like he has what it takes to get ahead of the pack. You see where I am coming from, canadianpittbull? You can certainly disagree, especially since I think you have seen more Legend matches than I have but I have seen quite a few so I believe I have seen enough to form an honest opinion.

[canadianpittbull]

I will agree with you that yes some of his matches are lack lustre at best but he is by no means a horrible wrestler.

[pikemojo]

Nope, and I never said that in any way. Just said that I personally don't enjoy his matches that I have seen.
