Mark Henry used to be a World Heavyweight Champion, a dangerous man who inducted several wrestlers into his Hall of Pain. Were less than four years removed from that gimmick and hes been reduced to jobbing in less than three minutes. No one would take Henry as a serious threat right now. Hes about on par with the Great Khali in terms of beating a big man: it shouldnt be a big deal because everyone can do it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bwCve1NziTE It really is a shame to watch. Henry might be injury-prone and slowing down, but sending him out there to job week after week does nothing but ruin his reputation. Perhaps New Day could recruit him to be some additional muscle. Maybe Bo Dallas could use a tag team partner to help fill out the tag ranks. Anything would be better than this.
