"When you look good, you feel good".

That's something current AEW announcer Mark Henry told reporters before helping out at a hygiene drive for homeless people in Austin, Texas. The former Olympian and WWE Hall Of Famer was there to talk to people about their problems, and help out as best he could with the barbers on hand dishing out free haircuts.

This wasn't a one-off for Mark either. He's very charitable, and that kind heart extends to helping those within the pro wrestling business too. For example, Henry's work as a talent scout for WWE helped recruit and encourage top talents like Bianca Belair. The 'EST' is just one of many who benefitted from knowing the 'World's Strongest Man'.

Anyone who listens to Mark on Busted Open Radio will know he's a passionate soul. There's a depth to Henry that goes far beyond what fans see on shows like AEW Rampage, and he should be proud of that. Charity is close to Mark's heart.
