Even though he played baseball and football at a young age, as a late bloomer with only a 93-pound body weight frame, he followed his brother and started wrestling during his freshman year in high school.[5] Rinaldi attended the University of North Carolina at Charlotte after high school[5] and worked at a car wash station part-time. His coworker at the car wash, who was a BJJ practitioner, introduced him to BJJ and since then he has transitioned from wrestling to MMA.[2][6]

He held a 5 fight winning streak prior to signing with the UFC.[3] Rinaldi competed for the featherweight title for Resurrection Fighting Alliance (now known as Legacy Fighting Alliance) in 2012[7] and lost the fight to Jared Downing.[8] He was the former Welterweight champion for Complete Devastation promotion where he submitted Tenyeh Dixon who missed the welterweight upper limit of 22 lbs on that fight.[4][2]
