His build as a monster too with the Sheamus feud and their match at SummerSlam was pretty genius as well. It pissed me off that after Henry lost the title they just used him to put Sheamus over in a squash on Raw as he was going for the title. If they had waited til after Sheamus won the title and used the feud almost a year earlier where Sheamus thought he was gonna be the one to stop Henry's dominance and ultimately lost, Henry being Sheamus' first challenger could have been incredible. They set it up so well before Henry won the title and there was no good resolution.
