Watching that episode still shakes me up. As much as I wanted to hate Jeff Jarrett, seeing him bawl like a baby on that show shook me up and still does. That guy has lost far more friends and family members who were close to him than I can really comprehend.
If I ever meet Mark Henry, I want to legit give him a hug. He lost a close friend, he suffered through years of Wrestlecrap gimmicks, and still manages to stay employed by WWE and draw a paycheck. Tremendous.

I just saw him Tuesday night at a chinese resturant after teh Smackdown taping. He posed for pictures with anyone who asked, and didnt miss anyone.
I also had great seats at the taping and I really appreciated how much he worked the crowd. He got right in my section's face at one point yelling at us.
I'm a new Mark Henry fan. I kind of liked him before, but I appreciate him much more now.

His in ring gimmick sucks and he's a sloppy wrestler, but I wouldn't be surprised if he were a really cool guy in "reality".

i think storm's story of mark paying for his hotel room/dinner and always apologizing is enough to show me how good a guy he is He even offered to carry Lance to his car.

in the book "Are we there yet" Mark Henry talks about how great Owen was to be on the road with n stuff, so this isn't a suprise

I've given Mark Henry a lot of grief for his in ring ability, but I've said it before, the man is a very classy gentleman. Only met him once, but he was polite, professional, and very friendly. I may not like his work in the ring, but it's hard not to smile seeing a good person succeeding.

He should go back being a sexual love machine poet He was very entertaining during that period with D-Lo. I've never understood why WWE insists on pushing him as a killer heel, when it should be obvious by now that it simply isn't going to work.

I've never understood why WWE insists on pushing him as a killer heel, when it should be obvious by now that it simply isn't going to work. He was pretty over when he destroyed Rey, Taker, Angle, and Batista. He's still over as a killer, his team with Big Daddy V just comes off as natural. Plus he's good on the mic, but Striker is better. Mountains of Ebony flesh not withstanding

As a big fan of Mizark's since his run as a heel on Raw, I'm always glad when story's like this come out and people see that humanity>work rate.

I hate mark henry as a wrestler/character/face/heel/mae young lover. hes awful.
but as a person he truely seems like a stand up fellow. ive heard sooo much good stuff about him in the past that i cant look at him and go "hes a shit wrestler" because im too distracted by how great a person he is
