Fans weren't the only ones who were fooled by Mark's tears during that "retirement" promo.

In an amusing moment, Big Show says he was typing out a text to his longtime friend whilst he was still talking in the ring. Show cried like a baby on his couch at home and wanted to personally thank Mark for his hard work and friendship over the years. He must've felt like a chump when Henry battered Cena.

With a smile, Show admits that he quickly sent another text to Mark. It said, "F*CK YOU" in capital letters; his pal had pulled the wool over his eyes. The same went for D'Lo, who couldn't believe that he'd been duped by one of his closest buddies. That Mark Henry, what a hell of a worker.

If you haven't seen it in years, fire up YouTube or the Network and enjoy Henry's masterful performance all over again. It's still an absolute corker nearly six years on.
