WWE: NXT's Arrival Will Lead To 7 Major Departures

6. Mark Henry

It's hard to believe how long Mark Henry has been in the WWE. He was a member of the Nation of Domination heel faction during the start of the Attitude Era, transformed himself into a comedic Sexual Chocolate character, and reverted back to the World's Strongest Man gimmick. In recent years, Henry became most successful as the dominant monster heel who inducted his victims into the Hall of Pain. He's had a long and successful run, but unfortunately age and injuries have caught up to him. He reportedly signed a new 3 year deal last year, but it will be hard for him to physically fulfill that deal. Alexander Rusev is an NXT star who had an impressive debut at the Royal Rumble match this year, and is someone who can step into the role that Henry has had the last couple of years. Rusev's size and athletic ability were on display during his RAW in ring debut this past Monday. Look for him to go through many WWE superstars in the weeks to come, developing into a main event level heel by the end of the year.
