10 WWE Superstars That Should Consider Retirement In 2018

As it turns out, Mark Henry may have already called it a day.

Listed on various sources as an 'Agent', 'The World's Strongest Man' may have already commenced his second second life in WWE constructing matches for the superstars of today, but it's legitimately a shame he may potentially not get the opportunity to formally retire. Especially after his fake one was so good.

Infamously donning a salmon suit jacket to feign a fond farewell in 2013, Henry's acting display fooled an entire audience as well as John Cena before he flattened 'The Champ' with a World's Strongest Slam.

Like The Big Show, he took his lumps from Braun Strowman in a noble effort to help 'The Monster Among Men' become Raw's newest giant threat in early-2017, but wasn't ever definitively destroyed as a character in the process.

Other than finally becoming skilled enough to hold a World Title after 15 years of practice in 2011, Henry's lengthy tenure didn't particularly offer up many other rewards. A goodbye programme with just about anybody would be better than nothing, if only to make use of his talents one last time.
