Rhino Praises Jordynne Grace, JBL Reveals 3 Stars He Wishes He Could've Wrestled
Today at 07:37 PM
During a recent appearance on “Sportzwire Radio,” Rhino revealed why Jordynne Grace is his favorite tag team partner besides former WWE Superstar Heath Slater.
You can check out some highlights from the interview below:
On Jordynne Grace being his best tag team partner besides Heath Slater: "I still really wrestle a lot of independent shows, and I like working with the independent wrestlers, whether it's men, I sometimes I've been in a mixed tag and that's been interesting. I'll tell you my best tag team partner, other than Heath Slater, I think I have to say that has been Jordynne Grace. We're in Tennessee, and I booked us in a mixed-tag match. Holy s***, and this is right, right when she was starting to hit too."
On the ideas Grace came to him with: "I went out there, and she came to me and she's like, 'Hey, Rhino, why don't we do this, and this?' I didn't think she was as big a fan as she said she was, and that showed me. I'm like, 'She's everything she says she claims to be.' She was bringing up stuff. She's like, 'Hey, what about this you've done in this match?' I'm like, 'I forgot all about that.’"
On how well they worked together: "It's great, because I remember as a kid watching guys, and then going up to them and remembering their stuff, talking to them. But we weren't actually working. But, Jordynne and I were working, and it was great. My respect level went from here to there for her and her knowledge of wrestling and knowledge of wrestlers too. She deserves everything she's accomplished and then some."
John Bradshaw Layfield has named Cody Rhodes and Nic Nemeth as two names he wishes he could have faced off against during his in-ring career.
While speaking on a recent edition of the “Something to Wrestle” podcast, the former Bradshaw named-dropped Cody Rhodes, Jacob Fatu, and Nic Nemeth as names he wishes he could have competed against. He said,
“Cody Rhodes, no doubt about it. He’s the guy. He’s the face of the company. But also the size difference, I worked really well with guys that I had a size advantage on. I understood that very well. I also worked, I felt pretty well with guys that I had a size advantage with, where they were much bigger, you had Big Show, you had Undertaker and Kane, you had some guys like that that I really enjoyed working with. But Cody Rhodes, I mean, that would be so fun. I think so much of Cody. Loved Cody since the JBL and Cole show and I think it’d be a lot of fun to work with Cody. I tell you, the other guys I work with, I would love to work with Jacob Fatu. He’s awesome. My God. That’d be so much fun to work with a guy like that, who could do so much stuff. I mean, that would be a blast. I mean, that would be so much fun to do.”
He added, “The other guy, you mentioned three people, the other guy, Dolph, Nic. I mean, I’ve never seen Dolph have a bad match, and I saw him have matches with Del Rio. My style and Del Rio’s are similar. Del Rio is better than me, but the style is similar, and I see how that style works. There’s just an old, simple style when a heel is bigger and can beat up the babyface, and that babyface works from underneath. Dolph has such incredible fire and is so talented, I think we could really have some good matches.”
