16 Things We Learned From Mark Henry On Talk Is Jericho

4. Sexual Chocolate

Chris talks about the days of The Attitude Era and how one of the best things about it was that everyone, no matter their spot on the card, had a character and story that you could follow and be invested in. Henry says that he embraced the role of Sexual Chocolate and went all in, pointing out that he even "tongue-kissed Mae Young." He mentions a lot of the over-the-top stuff he was involved in, such as the transvestite angle, being romantically linked to Chyna and being handcuffed and ball-gagged by Jaqueline and Terri. He recounts that the gimmick was a lot of fun and enjoyed his time with the character. He says that he and Mae Young together were magic, and that the two needed a script or anything, they'd just make it work. He scoffs at the people who says the company was trying to demean him and run him off, since he was the first one offered a guaranteed contract which had him locked up for ten years. He then mentions that 15 years later he still gets remembered for the gimmick, and is happy that he's done something that fans look back on fondly.
