This is the most recent one of the bunch.

On this past Monday's episode of Raw, Heath Slater beat Rhyno and saved his own skin (in storyline). The reality of the situation is that Rhyno, who cut his teeth in Canada and Germany before making a name for himself in the original ECW, is ready to retire.

During the commercial break on Raw, he informed the live crowd that he was finishing up. It seems Rhyno isn't too interested in working on the independent loop beyond this current WWE run, and so he's decided to hang up his boots aged 43. Come to think of it, 43 is pretty young for someone who has been around as long as he has.
