10 WWE Wrestlers That Bumped The Best For Braun Strowman

Even the 'World's Strongest Man' himself would admit that it took him quite a while to lock down some of the intangibles that could actually make the most of his remarkable strength, but he didn't have somebody like the 2017 version of himself to absolutely crush in order to get him there quicker.

With his mass and experience, Henry was able to give Braun Strowman something to think about in their series fairly early in 'The Monster Among Men's rise to prominence, but not that much. A couple of hope spots were all the former World Champion could muster in between taking total batterings from his mammoth opponent.

Henry getting up (and being thrust down) so well for Strowman's power gam wasn't just an act of sensational selflessness from the soon-to-be-Hall Of Famer. They were athletic feats in their own right for a guy of his size and advancing age. "I got a lot left in the tank!" were the immortal words he screamed in John Cena's face ahead of their 2013 feud, but he was clearly just as well-fuelled four years later.
