Timeline
Rheingans was inducted into the George Tragos/Lou Thesz Professional Wrestling Hall of Fame in 2004.
Rheingans retired in 1995 after undergoing major reconstructive surgery on both knees. After recovering, he began working as a trainer and as the American booker for NJPW, hiring wrestlers to tour Japan with the promotion. In the early 1990s, Rhenigans helped broker a working agreement between NJPW and World Championship Wrestling.
In 1989, Rheingans began touring Japan with New Japan Pro Wrestling (NJPW), allying himself with his former trainee Leon White, now known as Big Van Vader, and Buzz Sawyer in battling Antonio Inoki, Tatsumi Fujinami, Riki Choshu and Kengo Kimura, but later, he would aid New Japan in their battle against URSS amateur wrestlers such as Salman Hashimikov, Victor Zangiev, Vladimir Berkovich, Timur Zalasov and Wahka Evloev for the remainder of the year. On 1990, he started to help training young wrestlers on the NJPW Dojo, most notably Koji Kitao and Osamu Nishimura. On that time his most notable match was against another decorated amateur wrestler in Victor Zangiev from the Soviet Union on February 10 at the Tokyo Dome, in a winning effort. Later on, he would only engage against young lions such as Michiyoshi Ohara, Hiroyoshi Yamamoto, Manabu Nakanishi, Yuji Nagata and many others. His last match on New Japan saw Rheingans defeat El Samurai on December 11, 1993.
He also wrestled briefly for the WWF as an enhancement talent in 1986, occasionally for World Championship Wrestling from 1989 to 1990, and for various independent promotions in the Minnesota area during the early half of the 1990s.
Rheingans entered professional wrestling in 1980, training under Verne Gagne and Billy Robinson. He debuted in Gagne's American Wrestling Association.
From 1976 to 1977, Rhenigans served as assistant wrestling coach for the University of Minnesota. He went on to serve as a coach for the Minnesota Wrestling Club, where he trained Jeff Blatnick for the 1980 Summer Olympics.
Originally from Appleton, Rheingans was an NCAA Division II champion in 1975 for North Dakota State University and wrestled in the 1976 Olympics, placing fourth. He qualified for the Olympic team in 1980, but did not compete due to the United States boycott. Between Olympics, he placed third for a bronze medal at the 1979 World Wrestling Championships. He was later inducted into the Tribune Hall of Fame. Rhenigans also won gold medals in the 1975 and 1979 Pan American Games.
