Why Mark Henry is valuable to WWE

[Airfixx]

@ '...Gates

You've gone from saying you don't watch his matches close enough to comment on his selling ability, to in the the next post, saying he can't sell...

Please stop with this reactionary drivvle.


Also, there's more to wrestling than an expansive moveset... If someone the size and strength of Henry did a legit bearhug or 'worlds strongest slam' I'd be EXTREEEEEEMELY impressed to see anyone able to get up and continue wrestling afterwards.

You don't have to be quick, flashy, and tone to be a good wrestler.

High-flying is extremely overrated tbh. Seems like anybody who does some pretty flips is an awesome wrestler nowadays.

On-topic, Henry is valuable. He can get a new guy like Evan over losing hardly any credibility, because, well, look at the guy. He's built like a fucking house. Not to mention he plays the part of the big indestructible monster much better than anyone on the roster (looking at you 'Tista!)

Hell yeah, Henry waaaaay > Batista!

I've watched plenty of his matches, but i refuse to anymore because he just loafs around the ring, not able to do much besides a splash

Well the main part of that post was actually 're-read'. I suggest you go back and actually view some of the posts that have completely shut down your argument.

Get The Fuck Out if this is too hard for you by the way...

I've watched Mark Henry wrestle since 98' and like Kane, he bores me to tears. I can't deny his awesome power though. I always try to evaluate a wrestler's strength and talent on how badly they could kick my ass if I ever got in a fight with them. In the case of Mark Henry, If I ever thought of punching him, he would probably catch my fist in mid air, crush every bone with his mighty hand. Meanwhile, while I'm sitting there crying about it, he would have me in position for the worlds strongest slam when suddenly everything would go black. Do me favor WWE and lose Tony Atlas. Get him in the hall of fame and then cut him loose. By no means would this cure Henry's boringness...but it certainly would be start

While Mark Henry may be strong? He in no way is valuable to World Wrestling Entertainment. I've watched him since I started watching WWE back in April 1999.. None of his matches have impressed me. And quite frankly, They never will!

He has value to push the newcomers of ECW over, I'll give him credit for that.

Currently, I hate him with a passion as a competing wrestler. He is defeated when the shillelagh appears, or he misses a splash and the beat-down begins whilst he is spread out on the canvas.

I have rarely seen Henry taken out from a dynamic finisher - only that insane F-5 from Brock Lesnar which sold as an annihilating move a few years back. And because he is not as "sleek" as Khali, I can't see Henry submitting either, or being realistically whipped into a turnbuckle with the current ECW line-up.

You need big guys in the roster and he is worthy in that regard, but IMO very limited.

I guess I am missing the point of supersized wrestlers. Anyone free to explain how they are assets to the WWE can earn some of that green rep you oh-so crave about

I think Mark Henry put on good matches with Matt Hardy.
