Mark Henry, former WWE star and Hall of Famer, has been making headlines in 2024. After leaving AEW in April, he’s been speaking out on various wrestling-related topics, some of which have stirred up controversy. Recently, Henry shared his thoughts on a less contentious subject during an appearance on the new “Huge Pop!” podcast.

During the podcast, Henry discussed the idea of a hypothetical match between himself and former AEW World Champion MJF. He expressed confidence that such a match would be the best of the year, highlighting the importance of wrestling psychology. Henry emphasized his ability to make his opponent look impressive while also explaining how he would guide the match to ensure realism and proper storytelling. He pointed out the need for logical actions in the ring, using his size as an example of why certain moves wouldn’t make sense.

Henry’s comments reflect his belief that there’s a lack of understanding of wrestling psychology in modern matches. He stressed the importance of making in-ring actions believable and consistent with the wrestlers’ physical attributes, suggesting that this aspect of performance is often overlooked in today’s wrestling landscape.
