Mark Henry has officially retired from in-ring action, after a lengthy and successful career as a WWE Superstar.
Mark Henry hasn’t been a full-time wrestler for the WWE in over a year, and last appeared at WrestleMania 33 in the Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal. There was confusion as to whether or not Henry was retired for good, until recently.
Hey, remenber that Mark Henry also famously faked his retirement in order to trick John Cena, the current WWE Title holder into dropping his guard so he could administer a 'World's Strongest Slam'. However this time his retirement seems legitimate and has been a thing since after Wrestlemania 33 when Henry himself announced his retirement.
Henry joined the WWE when he was just 24 years of age. He worked his way up from a mid-card performer, and joined the Nation of Domination faction with The Rock, Farooq and others. Henry then joined the OVW to enhance his talents, then returned in 2002 as a top-notch wrestler.
The World’s Strongest Man had an excellent run with the WWE, but with his tremendous size, age (46), and part-time status, retirement was the best option.
Can't wait to find out what the future next holds for Henry.
