Maybe Mark Henry was just lonely and needed a friend.

I thought he was there to monitor Punk's wrist-taping antics.

Who's watching the Big Show then? Probably Undertaker. They're real close buddies, with Undertaker taking him on as protege, kinda like that weird storyline they used to have.

So they thought Tony was George Foreman "With my patented design, the fat drains directly into my mouth!" They could have gotten Richard Simmons to do out of charity what they're paying Tony Atlas to do! Could you imagine the hilarity as Henry talks about cake as Richard struts up and yells , "Noooo, you're doing so well Markie!" "Come on, Mark! Farewell to fa--" (WORLD'S STRONGEST SLAM)

He should teach him how to hunt down wild animals using spears.

Honestly, I perceived it as a combination of different things. First off, Atlas was one of Vince's first stars, he worked for his dad, I think he and Vince have always had a decent relationship whenever Atlas was clean. Then the thing about Henry's diet could be true. If he respects Atlas, in which for someone in the industry, knowing that Atlas pioneered a lot for African Americans in the industry as he was over like crazy, it may do good to have him helping Henry on the diet. I would take it personal if someone my age or younger kept telling me what I needed to eat, but if it was someone a little older than me that I looked up to and respected, I'd come a lot closer to listening. And finally, say what you will about Atlas, even though his interview skills aren't amazing, he was always able to get a crowd going in his prime whether he was a face or a heel. He's been all around the world wrestling and his experience, the good and the bad, can do nothing but help Henry. I think Henry has improved a ton over the past couple of years, and become a believable monster, something I never thought could happen after the Sexual Chocolate facade during the Attitude Era. He's obviously dedicated, and has been there to do (from what I can see on TV and what I've read of the years) anything that was asked of him in the ring. So quit knockin on Mark Henry, and Tony Atlas...before they SPLIT YO WIG!

And yet Simon Dean sits alone somewhere, waiting for the phone to ring.

Atlas looks like Mr. Potato Head after you lose most of the pieces.

The main reason WWE brought in Tony Atlas is not because he is mentoring Mark Henry but to travel with Henry.The reason of this is because Henry travels alone and eat's a lot of fatty foods.So Tony's main job is to keep Henry in good condition and keep him in good weight by using diets and other techniques. Source:http://www.ewrestlingnews.com Poor Mark Henry. To have that marble mouthed yutz as a dietary aide, with his "hip" ( : sleeveless shirt combos? I'd be going insane.

Atlas looks like Mr. Potato Head after you lose most of the pieces. I haven't laughed so hard in a while. And the poster before you stole my thunder by asking if that was D'Lo's job. (I think D'Lo's in the same boat...again.) Mark's not really fat, just stocky, kind of a lot like me. Some guys are just born that way. If you have a big, barrel-chest and love handles, people assume you're a lard-ass. Just because he doesn't have a ripped Triple H-body doesn't mean he does nothing but eat. The guy has legs as big around as some people. Mark must work out a lot to get his legs to look like that; you can tell it's not from a daily 10,000 calorie diet.

Boo to ewrestlingnews, who stole this story from the Figure Four this week and claimed it as their own. I realize I shouldn't expect much from sites like this but it's not very cool.

STEWIE: Okay, so these two black guys walk into a bar, and the bartender looks–
A BLACK GUY rises up out of the potted plant behind Stewie with the plant on top of his head.
BLACK GUY: Hey, what are you guys talking about?
STEWIE: Oh, I was just telling a joke. Um, so, uh, the bartender looks around and says, uh, “What’ll you two fine gentlemen have?” And, uh, they paid their tab and, and couldn’t have been more courteous.

They could've saved money by having Morrison tell him "Eating makes you fat".
