7 Incidents of racial insensitivity in the WWE

4. Michael Hayes – Mark Henry

Hayes is notorious for making racist slurs backstage

The WWE Hall Of Famer is notorious for being a loose cannon and a wildchild. This wasn’t the first time he courted disaster and we have a feeling it won’t be the last, even if we never hear about it.

The former Freebird allegedly threw around the n-word a lot backstage, with Booker T even talking about it once, though he laughed it off. And of all the people to say it to, he chose ‘The World’s Strongest Man’ Mark Henry!

Hayes reportedly said ”I’m more of a n*gger than you are” to Henry, who apparently let him live! Hayes can consider himself lucky that all he got was a 60-day suspension.
