Basically in the past they were able to tame/control elephants and us them in battle but why not a rhino or a hippo?

We also get to take into account the natural disposition of animals. Horses, for example, run away when scared or threatened. Zebras kick the shit out of everything. Horses run because they can outrun their predators on an open field. Zebras get ambushed by crocodill, so they try and kick the attacker away.
If humans attempt to tame a zebra, they will likely end up kicking you to death before you make much progress. Horses will run away, we can work with that.
Apply that same thing to rhinos and hippos, their first instinct is to trample/bite/impale you to death. We may eventually get to taming them, but i sure as heck wont be the one to try.
