Mark henry showed us that even the strongest men with the thickest skin often times have the softest heart. Mark deserved so much more from WWE than shitty storylines that went nowhere especially him getting may young pregnant and her having a baby at 87 years old.
Bro I started bawling as soon as I saw the tears rolling down his face on that episode of raw and then the beautiful poem he wrote for Owen. OMG I didn't think I would cry that much while watching wrestling.
I remember the night Owen died. They made a brief announcement & I didn't believe it. I became really sad when I found out that it was actually true. I'm just glad no footage of it ever surfaced, at least none that I'm aware of. R.I.P. Owen
@melvinhhcp3615 it got shown once. I've seen it. The whole fall and all. It was real messed up they'd show it nut than again, mofos is heartless nowadays.
@@gowthamtechy94He won the World Heavyweight Championship and ECW Championship. Also got to work Undertaker at Mania. Those are great accolades that many in the business would have been happy to achieve
@@ShaneTumminelloRight he's a 2 time world heavyweight champion even though the ECW championship was a mid card world championship in the WWE lol but a lot of legends never won 1 world title in the WWE so Mark had an above average career until the end where he put others over
It reminded me of Ken Griffey Jr. told Jay Buhner, in front of their former teammates and a sold-out Safeco Field in Seattle, that there wouldn't be anyone other than his parents that if something happened to him...that he would want him (Jay) to raise his kids.
I was a bouncer in Austin. And Mark worked 3 bars down from me, and he had Zero problem following guys he threw out and letting me know “Hey man, these guys might give you some problems!”. One straight up dude, hands down!
Find the interview when Mark is talking about his son. He’s talking about his accomplishments in football, lifting, and being a simultaneous all-state wrestler and choir. That interview shows just how big that man’s heart is. You can feel the love and the pride he has for his son in his voice.
That Austin interview with Henry is a classic!! Much respect on how they vibes and how Henry stood up for Austin in that interview. It was a real as it gets!!
Yeah that bitchass Ahmed Johnson said Stone Cold was racist. Mark Henry shot that down. I remember Stone Cold standing up for a black guy when a white guy was ridiculing him, no cameras around.
@@melvinhhcp3615 He made some terrible mistakes during one of the lowest points of his life. He accepted the fact, took his punishmemt and there has been no incidents since many years later. The whole point of the system is rehabilitation and Steve Austin was rehabilitated. Still terrible he did it but at least he, and Debra, moved on from it.
@brianezell5790 for about a minute and it was just the once. But you are correct....I meant a real one but I guess if I don't type my meaning people wouldn't get it
I felt that same power in his interview, when he starts crying when they ask him about the mark henry spot holy crap never seen that man got so emotional, I was having goosebumps and shit all over my body
Mark does have the personality, real life character, and vibe that if not for wrestling I could see him being a preacher, life coach, maybe even therapist
Stone Cold was my favorite wrestler when I was a kid, back in the mid to late 90’s, and I am SO glad that he is doing his podcast. Hearing his stories from his years on the road is just classic.
I love when a great story teller, tells a great story about a great story teller, telling them a great story and their in awe as they tell some one else a great story about a great story teller telling them a great story. I guess thsts why they're great story teller.😅😅
The fact that Mark Henry got as far as he did after being buried by being booked in ridiculous storylines (I.E. banging Mae Young) is indeed legendary. Those storylines were embarrassing enough to sabotage a career. Not only did that not happen to Mark Henry, but he rose from them to become a main eventer and a world champion.
God bless you Austin thank you for doing everything you've done as an entertainer broken skull ranch and so forth I like your interview with Mark Henry Mark Henry's a badass son of a b**** and so is his son's and everybody else that are coming up I love it I can't wait to see the future
He really should have been afforded more than 1 WWE championship. Not just because of his size and power. Because to me ( only an opinion ), he sold the storylines * most shitty* I really think if the marketed him and gave him better storylines. That he could have accomplished more in the ring, and more fans would truly have accepted him. My now ex-wife waited on him and scotty to Hottie at Applebee's one night. They were her last table, and i was there early to pick her up. After she took their orders, i walked over and asked if it were possible if i may get an autograph. They both agreed and signed two napkins. I said thank you and shook their hands when Henery asked if i wanted to sit down and talk with them. I'm telling y'all he is one of the nicest and most humble person I've ever had the pleasure of meeting. After meeting him, I've tried to be one the nicest person ppl have met. I would love to meet him again one day, just to tell him it's because of how he treated me, is how i try and treat everyone. With kindness and respect.
I love Steve man beside eminem steve gota be the 2nd white celebrity thst can pass for being a brotha/ black person bec steve has always been a lone wolf in the wwe but all his closest friends in the business an even passing the torch to the rock as all been black wrestlers that steve hang wit and respected alot that why steve will always be a brother in the black community from another mother him and Eminem 4sure i heard brock Lesnar was the same way to his best friend was black shelton and he respect the hell out of black athletes and never been on any racist shyt u respect the hell out of those 3 white boys 4sure
Mark can have all the flowers he wants from me, but I’ll never forget watching his “retirement” speech and knowing something was up because of how watered down it was 😂 I don’t think anybody was convinced.
That VladTV interview with Mark Henry is hands down the best ever on that awful RU-vid channel. I had no idea Mark was that intelligent and he articulated his point of view so well. Classy stuff.
Man, I really slept on Mark and stopped watching back in 2001, but that first podcast he did with Mark was amazing. Lol when Mark talked about being pissed at someone and he said “I feel like I could rip the skin off your body right now” I believe him
Stone Cold was my guy growing up! You know how many helpless kids and young siblings got the stunner from me? I was lil menace in the hood. We actually had wrestling gangs in our school. We had D-Genration X, The Domination, The Dudely Brothers were these 2 7th graders. We had the Hardy Kids not boys. These were the kids that wasnt afraid to flip of the jungle gym. 😂
People will probably get mad about this but oh well. 1 to 10 as a wrestler Steve was probably a 5 but as a promo he was 9000! And he had a top 5 finisher! As far as Mark I feel like for a 20-25 yr career he deserved more than one title run. I don't even really remember him have a secondary belt like the IC or US championships. Bret Hart being my favorite wrestler when he cried for Owen Man than hit deep and when he gave that OUTSTANDING retirement speech and destroyed John Cena... Chef's kiss!
I know he’s talking about the audio only podcast but the Broken Skull interview on the network was very good as well. You can see the emotion in Mark Henrys face when he talks about certain things. A friend of mine lives in Austin, TX and one his coworkers is friends with Mark Henry. He got to meet Mark Henry and said how he was such a nice guy. I’m glad WWE finally figured out how to book him properly with the Hall of Pain gimmick. To me that was the run that put Henry in the Hall of Fame. That fake retirement promo was the best acting I’ve ever seen in a wrestling promo. At first I was like it’s a work and he’s about attack Cena. When Henry started to cry I thought oh wow this is for real. Then when he slammed Cena I was like damn he got me 😂😂😂
