The world's strongest man has put many of today's stars over
Look who just shut down all of Tony Khan's critics! More HERE.
This is someone some of you may think is not over with the fans. Not so fast, my friends. Right before and right after that epic heel swerve, Henry was very much over. His entrance alone would bring the house down, with that slow, subtle camera panning over his massive frame, as all the fans bounced to his music.
Everyone loved the Hall of Pain era. Plus, in Marks early years, he was a heavy fan favourite, especially when he was billed as an Olympic icon.

Henry has had a pretty good career, in terms of overall length of tenure and accomplishments. However, when you take a look at how many matches he's lost, it may surprise you. While only winning roughly 47% of his televised matches, Mark has been involved in 72 pay-per-view matches of which he has won only 25.
Mark Henry is undoubtedly reaching the later stages of his career and while he's lost more than his fair share, he has had a good run and has truly played a vital role in helping put over a lot of today's top stars. Henry is a dead-lock for a Hall of Fame bid when his time comes.

Jonathan Carpenter is a pro wrestling journalist at Sportskeeda. After obtaining a degree in political science from the University of Arkansas at Little Rock, he started writing WWE articles in 2016. Jonathan believes integrity is vital in journalism and ensures his work is high on accuracy. He conducts in-depth research and verifies information from various sources before curating a feature.
Jonathan has engaged in many meaningful conversations with prominent pro wrestling personalities like Drew McIntyre and DDP. He grew up in Memphis, admiring Hall of Famer Hulk Hogan during WWE’s Golden Era in the ‘80s. He has attended many pro wrestling events and credits The Hulkster for making his childhood memorable.
Jonathan, a big fan of Bray Wyatt, would like to see the latter's brother, Bo Dallas, continue his legacy as Uncle Howdy. If he were to work on the storyline, Jonathan would book the return of Erick Rowan as Howdy’s muscle. He thinks it would be a great way to honor the former Universal Champion.
When not writing pro wrestling features, Jonathan likes to collect sports memorabilia and has amassed a large collection of event-used and autographed relics over the years.
