Damn, he faces the Mark Henry RIGHT on, frankly, my opinion of the man did shoot up during that section. I've always been a Freebird mark since way back in the Texas days. However, it wouldn't surprise me, knowing how concerned and PC WWE is with its brand, that this interview was done and scripted so it absolves WWE for honoring Hayes. Or I'm just that flipping jaded. I'm an optimist, so I'd like to think the amount of personal responsibility he takes over it is legit.

Ironically, I found The Road Dogg's personal life to be more interesting than his wrestling career.

I'm just sure that someone in the E thought, "You know, we better get ahead of this before the racial questions start," especially with the Hogan stuff still being fresh in people's minds.

Between this, the Daniel Bryan documentary and just his general demeanour in interviews, Mark Henry seems like the coolest guy ever. He could've easily got Hayes fired (and justifiably so) and he chose not to do that when others might've done so.

I'm just sure that someone in the E thought, "You know, we better get ahead of this before the racial questions start," especially with the Hogan stuff still being fresh in people's minds. Honestly I'm finding the fact they're bringing this up amazing and encouraging. It's their network, they control everything and they're letting these tough subjects come up. If they whitewashed it, like they have done so many times in the past, who'd know and complain? Us on the internet, unless it's a guy on Hogan's level or Benoit kind of bad. Some road agent used the N word years ago? They didn't mention it no one would really care, and with Michael Hayes it's not like there aren't any stories they could use to fill time. Legends with JBL is currently the hard hitting program people wanted the Stone Cold Podcast to be.

Is this worth watching? I saw what Hayes was wearing in the interview and decided to not bother with it.

Hayes is one of the least sincere people I have ever seen talk, and that interview was actually weirdly... Believable.

I hope we get to see the Booker T and Jimmy Hart ones at least (they may have held back on the Booker one due to the fact that it makes reference to Hogan's rant).

How is this man's life not an Academy Award winning Biopic?
The story about his kid after getting released from prison...

As far as later in the interview, his Hogan response was pretty mild. But I can't believe Hogan didn't take his offer to be on his show.

I saw the previews at the end of the Booker one, really looking forward to Outsiders, Madusa, Sting, Jimmy Hart and Bruno
