18 WWE Attitude Era Midcarders That Deserve Hall Of Fame
14. Mark Henry
The second of three Superstars destined to enter the Hall of Fame, Mark Henry starred during the Attitude Era as the sex-addicted heavyweight notorious for having knocked up Mae Young. Few could have ever imagined that he would become one of the company's longest-tenured stars ever, with 20 years of loyalty to Vince McMahon's promotion and a World Heavyweight Championship on his resume. A former Olympic power lifter, Henry failed to live up to his sizable contract during his first two years with the company. A heel turn and run with The Nation, though, helped him gain momentum.
A friendship with D'Lo Brown resulted in a moderately successful tag team that ended prematurely when injury struck Henry. It was around this time, beginning late in 1998, that Henry underwent a character change. There was significantly less emphasis put on his status as the World's Strongest Man. Instead, he became the Superstar with the world's largest sexual appetite. From Chyna to Terri Runnels to the aforementioned Mae Young, no woman could resist a taste of Sexual Chocolate.
Henry's charisma and fun-loving personality shined through and the result was a beloved character whose nickname is still chanted in arenas wherever the big Texan competes.
