WWE Hall of Famer Mark Henry recently joined Teddy Long and Mac Davis on their “Road Trip After Hours” YouTube channel. Henry is no longer with AEW and he appeared alongside his son Jacob on WWE Raw this past Monday.
Henry talked about the difference in the locker rooms between AEW and WWE:
“In some capacity, the newer companies have people that don’t want to be overshadowed by people that came in and that’s just backwards thinking,” Henry said. “Hopefully, they’ll get that rectified, but that starts at the top. If they don’t get it together, I feel like they’re not going to do as good as they can. I wish them well. I don’t want them to go away because it will hurt the boys. I want the boys to have leverage, so I pray for AEW’s success for the simple fact that I want all these guys to realize that we’re all working for each other and the companies are just who pays us. Your loyalty should be to the person that life is in your hand, so every step I take in the ring, that’s who I work for. I work for the guy. That mentality needs to come back.”
Henry never got a retirement match but it’s unlikely to happen because of injuries that have slowed him down. When asked about wrestling again, Henry said “No.”
