Mark Henry (Spoiler, maybe, if you didn't watch SD)

[Afterlife]

Ah, Sexual Chocolate, how we've missed you.

Just kidding.

But wait--what's this? Apparently, the World's Strongest Man was out of action for the past year, not due to an injury at all, but to find time to download a moveset! All mockery aside, when seeing that SmackDown! match on Friday, I thot it would be boring and useless to see him beat three cruisers. But much to my surprise, he made my brain shut it's mouth and bite it's tongue. The craziness he was doing was awe-inspiring--I don't even remember how he finished the first one. But that reverse chokeslam was pretty damn sweet on guy #2. And poor Ecko, receiving the World's Strongest Slam.

My point is, we all know he's got no personality to speak of, but he's not complete crap on the mic and, really...it looks like he may be entertaining in the ring now! I know it sounds crazy, but...well....what do you think?

Smackdown is in desperate need of competition for the WHC,and since they've split the rosters in half they've been having trouble getting any so now this is why you are seeing Mark Henry challenging Batista.Atleast he is a believable challenger but he just hasn't been booked well enough in the past to make anyone give a shit.If he was a new guy though, that would be a bit more shocking and make people care more.

[Skippord]

He sucks,however that reverse chokeslam was the shit

[Favre4Ever]

I hate this thing they do where they just bring in a random guy and immediatly elevate him to Main event status. It just goes to show how unwilling they are to progress any of the up and coming stars they've been creating for years.

Mark Henry? What?

[Londoner]

If they turned Lashley heel and had him challenge Batista, that would've been better.

[Just John]

I thought lashley was heel, shows how much I dont watch WWE

IT works though. I mean, it's made TNA viable competition....

[Just John]

its like WWE are deliberatley doing crap stuff so TNA thinks it has hope, then they suddenly leave TNA in the dust, (see ECW ONS)

Lashley's been beating on people like Dean. Hardly heelish.

[Just John]

Ah, the squash treatment?

[Kane Knight]

Yeah, it's mostly been "look how big and strong I am!"

By the way, is it me, or does he even SOUND like Wayne Brady if Brady was his size?

[Londoner]

Lashley's promo was a laugh, I was expecting him to sound a bit more intense, he didn't sound like his heart was in it at all.

[Y3J]

It's all a cunning plan by WWE. Lower our expectations and then

BAM!

Something amazing happens and we all go crazy.

Who am I kidding?

[Kane Knight]

It's all a cunning plan by WWE. Lower our expectations and then

BAM!

Something marginal happens and we all go crazy.

[TerranRich]

I still maintain that Henry is in the WHC title scene simply because Eddie was supposed to win back the WHC belt right now. Since they plan things out months in advance, they needed to do something in his place.

[Disturbed316]

I'm actually quite enjoying seeing Henry back. Yeah he is a douche and has very limited appeal, but seeing him squash the crap out of those 3 guys made him seem like a big bastard bully and when Batista beats him, it will be no loss, but will help him gain more momentum as some unstoppable spinebuster machine. Especially if he gets Henry up for the Batista Bomb.
