10 Wrestling Facts We Didn't Know Last Week (Aug 18)
4. Sean Waltman Regrets His Mark Henry Parody

WWE just wouldn't get away with putting anyone out there in 'black face' make-up in 2017. The world has changed, so much so that Sean Waltman is ashamed of a segment long considered one of D-Generation X's most entertaining. That parody of the Nation Of Domination from 1998 must be seen to be believed.
Triple H was The Rock, Billy Gunn played The Godfather, Road Dogg hilariously mimicked D'Lo Brown and Jason Sensation (remember him?) produced a wonderful performance as the late Owen Hart. That left X-Pac to play Mark Henry, something Waltman told Uproxx he wishes hadn't happened in retrospect.
At the time, Waltman didn't know what minstrels were, so he (armed with Henry's blessing) did his best with the 'Mizark' part on camera. All these years on, Sean knows how offensive 'blacking up' is to a lot of people, so he hates the fact he painted his face for a light-hearted jab at Mark's race.
