Former SmackDown Tag Team Champions Heath Slater and Rhyno must put their friendship aside and battle it out for the right to keep their position on Monday Night Raw.
Rhyno fired from Monday Night Raw
December 3, 2018
HOUSTON — After losing a one-on-one match to longtime friend and tag team partner Heath Slater during this week’s broadcast, Rhyno was fired from Monday Night Raw, per a stipulation ordered by the red brand’s “General Manager-Elect,” Baron Corbin.
Informing both Superstars that cuts would be needed for the Raw roster, Corbin scheduled a match pitting the former SmackDown Tag Team Champions against one another. Slater, unable to risk losing everything that he’s built for his family in recent years, had no choice but to defeat his friend and force the veteran Man Beast to leave Raw.
Moments later, the “General Manager-Elect” informed Slater that he would remain on Team Red as a referee, not a Superstar.
As Slater prepares for a drastic career shift, what’s next for Rhyno? Stay with all of WWE’s digital platforms for more.
