TNA Wrestling Hall of Famer Rhino spoke with Covalent TV on a number of topics, including helping the younger talent succeed and find their characters.
Rhino said, โWell, I usually try to give them the basics, you know, as far as you know, take out your personality, try to highlight that you know, certain things youโre you know, just take it from here to there and just like what theyโre comfortable with and let things organically happen.โ
On the importance of being able to adjust based on the crowd:
โOh, itโs very important, especially with the wrestling fans, because theyโll let you know. Thatโs why I like to tell a lot of people, โItโs not as scripted as people think.โ Because youโre out there, they might want to see something different and they tell you by cheering or booing or this or that, you got to give it to them So, and thatโs where the real talent lies. As you mature as a talent, you have the ability to do that out there.โ
