RAW Superstar Mark Henry recently spoke with The West Australian to promote WrestleMania 27. It was noted that Henry is planning on retiring in the next 18 months, despite him feeling that he has another 3 good years left in him. After retiring from Action, Henry will be working with WWE's next generation of wrestlers, presumably in an agent or trainer's role.

Sad to hear, but hopefully he can teach bigs how to work a crowd

2006 Mark Henry is still one of my favorite heel runs that I feel that is underrated. Doesn't surprise me that he is going to retire soon but it has been cool to see that he hasn't been getting as injured as much lately as he has in the past.

I remember that run. He was very good, but I also remember Dave returning and beating the living shit out of him on TV.

I likes his ECW work with Atlas more than anything else he has done

Shame that feud got cut short as they did a great job building it and that beat down was kind of epic.

:( @ this news as he's personally been one of my favorites since the Sexual Chocolate days.

His Heel run in ECW w/Atlas ranks up there as one of his best. I'm wondering if he's gonna turn Heel once more before leaving.

This is sad news but not shocking in the least. Dude has been wrestling since 96 and has had the worst luck ever with injuries to mostly his knees. It was bound to come to an end sooner rather than later at this point.

Good. Unless he was going to change his character and actually do something interesting, he's better off not wrestling anymore.

I could see him as a trainer though. He'd be good in that role.
