In general the past couple of years have done a lot to destroy the whole, "Mark Henry is such a nice guy!" aura. He consistently comes off like a real asshole.

I just wish it wasn't so hard for some people to understand that just because someone treats YOU well doesn't make them a good person. Like, I’ve made a lot of jokes about Jordan Devlin but my only experience with him (even though he was drunk so couldn’t commit to a word he said properly) was positive. That doesn’t take away from what he’s been accused of doing for me along with other people I either met or were involved with who were accused during SpeakingOut. The reason I feel that way is because I understand not just that people act differently for various reasons but because it just feels wrong to disregard that stuff because I and others had positive experiences.

This may rival Kevin Nash for worst statement about Janel Grant.

This may rival Kevin Nash for worst statement about Janel Grant. Oh, it's worse. Nash at least admitted that Vince had a pattern of behaviour that made Grant's claims credible after he floated the possibility that it might have been consensual. Henry just dismissing the idea that Vince did anything wrong and asserting Grant was gold digging all along is just flat out insulting to anybody with a shred of decency.

I always thought Mark Henry was an ass**** ever since he used his hall of fame speech to try and emotional blackmail Martha Hart into allowing the company who killed her husband via negligence to use his image to promote themselves so this is just the latest in a series of “This f***** guy” comments

Hey remember when Lio Rush called out how bad the optics of expecting a young black employee to carry all your bags looked and Henry told him to shut up?

Between this and the out of nowhere rage at Kairi Sane about basically ****ing nothing, I do find Mark Henry’s attitude to women quite concerning.

Beginning to see why AEW cut ties with this dude as easily as they did, turns out he made it very f***ing easy for them, yeesh.

If you asked almost any fan about Mark Henry and Kane like seven years ago I think guaranteed you'd get "They seem like some of the nicest most well respected guys in the business" Amazing how hard wrestlers will tank their reputations and standing with fans by simply opening their f***ing mouths, over and over... and boy do a lot of them just love digging up.

Whatever you wanna say about the complicated feelings people who respect Vince have in reckoning with that, the line between a self-centered view of a guy you feel indebted to and just actually saying sexist bile is so f***ing thick and I'm glad we have guys like Henry and Nash to express as much. Truly horrible statement, callous monster shit. Where's the BMW, Mark? Show me the BMW, you horrific, cruel dickhead.

I remember multiple people on this very board saying Henry was right and that was just how things are done. Anyways, sometimes it's better just to say nothing Mark.

Yeah, not a great look from Mark. Yes, money makes things complicated, but I just don't understand how these guys can't understand that the money is part of the manipulation and abuse. Buying a victim's silence doesn't mean the victim is suddenly OK.
Also, your son just signed a NIL deal and you're trying to get back in the company's good graces, maybe you don't need to go on record about the former owner's sexual abuse? Sheesh.

Not to mention how stopping those contractually obligated payments is itself another form of abuse. Vince agreed to pay her this money after what he did to her; him withholding it is absolutely a way of exerting control, believing he can get away at least sometimes with just f***ing over his victim again and leaving the only option as having to chase after him in court and reopen herself to the trauma. It's all calculated.

Hey now let's be totally fair to Mark. He also implied he would have knocked her out if it was his entrance.

Says a lot about someone when a 360 lb man says that he would physically assault a 115 lb woman if she had stood around in the ring for too long during his entrance.
