WWE Hall of Famer Mark Henry hasn't always been seen as a serious character. Many fans know him as "The World's Strongest Man." But when the former world champion first came to WWE, he was handed a comedic gimmick, as he was called "Sexual Chocolate." During this time period, Henry had a storyline romance with WWE legend Mae Young.

At the time, Young was 77 years old while Henry was only 29. The storyline took quite a turn when Viscera splashed Young while she was carrying the couple's child. Young later famously gave birth to a hand.

Just 12 years later, the hand showed up on an episode of WWE RAW to prove that he had grown up. Sadly, Young passed away in 2014 when she was 90 years old.

On the other hand, Henry has since retired from his career as an in-ring competitor in WWE. He now works a producer for the company, and he recently appeared during WWE RAW Legends Night.
