Wait... JBL was picking on Mark Henry? A guy who is built like a mountain.

He's a moron.

He picked a fight with Steve Blackman in an airport and got Roundhouse Kicked unconscious 

Of course he's a moron.

Didn't happen that way, but it sure is fun to pretend that it did.

Yeah, the version I heard had Steve get caught on the luggage and getting the raw end of the fight.

Not that it matters, anyway. Winning fights doesn't make anyone less of a piece of shit. Buzz Sawyer and Dick Slater won a lot of fights, but were also pieces of shit that are of no value to anyone.

Well, the point still stands that JBL is a moron for messing with Steve Blackman, because Blackman is dangerous.

Blackman did punch JBL in the face several times. He just didn't kick JBL or knock him out. Here's Steve Austin and Bob Holly talking about the incident, also with excerpts from Holly's book:

Ah, that makes sense, then. I'd seen at least like 2-3 versions of the account, but none first-hand, so this is good.

In any case, yeah, JBL's a dick. Glad Owen was able to give Mark Henry the veteran perspective on how to deal with someone who wants to make a big show of shit like this.

"Ah'm sorry Ah upset you Mark. It was wrong of me to drop trash on the floor."


"..."



"What if I buy you a trash picker?"



"..."



"And a hoagie."

I’ll at least give JBL some credit. It’s not like he just picks onguys he could beat the crap out of.

No, he picks on guys he knows can't or won't retaliate either due to being nice guys or out of fear of losing their job.


When Brock came to the main roster, Bradshaw all but carried his bags as he knew the WWE had invested a lot in Lesnar and he'd be canned if he did anything, while with Henry, management soured on him quick and it became open season for bullying.

I always recall how heartbroken Mark looked on Raw is Owen (more so than most I mean) and getting the impression they were pretty close.

That and him talking about Owen in his Hall of Fame speech. Swear to God, him asking the camera to focus on him and saying straight to camera “Martha, he needs to be here.” is right up there with Heenan’s “I wish Monsoon was here.” as the most emotional moment of any Hall speech.
