Retirement match against Randy Orton, female star’s manager - 3 Things that could happen if Mark Henry returns to WWE
Mark Henry is a very well-respected name in the world of wrestling. He has carved a niche for himself, especially in the WWE. He made his name there and became the feared wrestler he later became.
He is now part of AEW, but that could not be for much longer. Recently, reports emerged from Fightful Select that his contract was nearing its end. In fact, it is due to end at the end of this month, which raises questions about his next move.
Henry has transitioned from a wrestler to a backstage personality with ease. His wealth of experience would do WWE a world of good if he moved back. This article will look at three things that could happen if Mark Henry returned to his old stomping ground this year.
#3. Manage Jade Cargill and Odyssey Jones
Mark Henry is known to hone the talent of talented wrestlers, and Jade Cargill and Odyssey Jones fall into that category. They are still young and very raw and could use some mentorship.
There is clearly a lot of talent there, and working with Henry will elevate them to greater heights.
Jade Cargill has made her mark in the company and had a great match at WrestleMania 40 alongside Bianca Belair and Naomi.
Odyssey Jones's in-ring moves and attire resemble those of the WWE Hall of Famer a lot. It would be great for them to work with the wrestling legend.
#2. Retirement match with Randy Orton
Randy Orton has a checkered history with the World’s Strongest Man.
During his Hall of Pain days, Henry punished Randy heavily and did not forget that.
In 2021, Randy Orton taunted Mark so severely that it would have no doubt stayed with him. Returning to WWE to potentially have a retirement match with The Viper will be an exciting proposition for the AEW star.
With Orton also getting older, the timing could not have been better for Henry to finally return to his old stomping ground.
#1. Backstage role for Mark Henry
A backstage role for Mark Henry, be it as a producer or a coach, will be one of the best things to do, and it will undoubtedly have a lot of weight when it comes to making his decision.
He regularly appears on Busted Open Radio, and his love for WWE is evident. As a producer, he could make great matches happen, and as a coach, he would work with stars with a lot of potential, mainly in NXT, and push them onto the main roster, where they can become big stars.
