10 Wrestlers Who Had No Business Competing In Money In The Bank
5. Mark Henry (WrestleMania XXV/Money In The Bank 2010)
Similar to The Big Show, Mark Henry does have a tremendous presence, but isn't exactly the kind of wrestler fans want to see when tuning into a Money In The Bank ladder spectacle. Nonetheless, the 'World's Strongest Man' has found himself booked in no less than two of the bouts, the first coming at WrestleMania XXV. Later throwing his name into the hat for the first every proper Money In The Bank Pay-Per-View, Henry tried his best at 'Mania, but couldn't really shine in a ladder match when the likes of CM Punk, Christian and Shelton Benjamin were involved, all capable of producing stand out moments which live long in the memory for those who attended the show. For Henry, being involved in one of these showcases means stumbling around hitting the occasional big power move and rarely attempting to scale the rungs of the ladder, rendering his inclusion ultimately pointless in the long run. Money In The Bank matches are all about speed and bumps, not big boots and a slow pace, making Mark Henry a waste of a participant.
