#5 Mark Henry

Mark Henry won his first and last World Title in 2011

For someone who was known as ‘Sexual Chocolate’ and who had a hand with the late great Mae Young, Mark Henry had perpetually been given the tag of the ‘World’s Strongest Man’ but all this ever led to was losses and more losses. He was an intimidating figure, but he was never a main event player.

He was an attraction but it never really amounted to a run which involved him doing something great. Until 2011.

Henry gave away his longtime babyface run and turned heel. He frequently made other superstars be a part of the ‘Hall of Pain’. And this led to him winning his first World Title in 15 years by defeating Randy Orton. 

It was 15 years in the making, but this has been arguably the best run Henry’s had in his wrestling career.
