Henry was also inducted in the WWE Hall of Fame during last year's ceremony. He was joined by Goldberg, Ivory and Jeff Jarrett in the WWE Hall of Fame class of 2018.

The heart of the matter

Mark Henry revealed that his new role in WWE is a backstage position of working with the talent and helping them "reprogram".

The World's Strongest Man also talked about today's generation of talent not wanting to do "jobs" and not being able to understand it.

Here is an excerpt of what he said:

"Like nobody wants to do jobs [anymore], They feel like it's beneath them somehow. And I would be, Hall Of Famer or not, I would go back in a heartbeat if my body would allow it, do jobs and show people the way to get it done. But it's unfortunate for me, my body gave up."

He also stated that positive changes are on the way in WWE and we have already seen somewhat of a change in the philosophy of finishes.
