Just had emergency surgery on my colon cancer coming out the surgery there is only one way to start my day is that I had to put your interview want to stay strong and positive that I got a Be!
Can you imagine if more people strived to be like Mark Henry? Held themselves to the standards he holds himself to and taught his children to hold themselves to. Absolutely an amazing man. Put all his accolades in wrestling and strength competition aside and the amount of respect I have for him is still almost immeasurable. He is the epitome of dignity and I can't compliment him enough.
Mark Henry will never be retired in my eyes lol. When he won the World Heavyweight Championship, I felt like it was long overdue. He's one person who could come back to the ring and business would pick up like he never left.
I loved Mark Henry as a wrestler, and I also love hearing him as a storyteller. I'm so glad that another company was able to recognize his talents. Also, best of luck to his son and reaching his dreams!
Mark was a rare breed of a big man wrestler. He had the aura of being a menacing, cold blooded beast that most wrestlers didn't want to mess around with. It's shameful that guys like John Cena overshadowed the main bulk of mark's WWE career BC his hall of pain gimmick should have result with him being the WWE champion instead of the world heavyweight champion.
🏮for me , Not really hate him , I thought the entrance and theme was quite strong, so I wanted to know his mindset, and what type of dude he is, and wrestling was definitely interesting, whenever he came out‼️ Glad he is one of the, greatest respected, Wrestlers in Wrestling‼️ yea he looks mean and is definition of hell-strong
When he said about kids “you’d step in front of a train,” I also got teary-eyed thinking about my kids. Then I thought, “If Mark Henry did that, he might STOP the train!”
I've been deep into wrestling most of my life, and I can honestly say that Chris is one of the most respectable interviewers that's ever been in the business. I put him in the class of Bill Apter. It's refreshing to see someone who respects the business, understands the business, and goes into the heart of the business to learn from.....sometimes literally. He's a good listener too, and he doesn't interrupt, and that means a lot. Sometimes people just need someone to listen to them, and wrestlers are no different. Watch any of his interviews and you can see how comfortable and at ease the guys/gals are when they're talking to him, and that's what makes the best and most in depth shoot interviews. Some of these guys have been interviewed a zillion times, so as an interviewer you have to do your homework and focus on areas that maybe haven't been discussed or discussed very little in their previous shoots with other interviewers, and Chris is good at that. You can tell the guys enjoy talking to Chris as much as he enjoys talking to them. Another great interview as usual!👍
I've always loved Mark. A strong, powerful, humble and inspiration to so many people. He started as a power lifter in the Olympics and went on to be a great wrestler and human being. God bless him.
The itnerviews I love the most, is the ones where you can tell that Chris can just relax with the guest and just be himself 100% . This is one of those interviews. Mark henry is so funny and smart.
Mark is by far my favorite person in Pro Wrestling. The man exudes passion, respect and love. He really makes you feel. Whenever he's on busted open, I'm there.
The fact that Mark Henry didn't have a Brock Lesnar-like domination run throught the Ruthless Agression and PG era is so unreal to me. His Hall of Pain run showed us that he can be one of the most terrifying characters in pro wrestling and they only used that side of him properly for a year. He could have been THE greatest monster heel of all time.
I try telling people Mark Henry is arguably the strongest man to ever live. He dominated tested powerlifting and his lifts still rank in the top 5-10 almost 30 years later. He won the first Arnold Strongman Classic like he said. And of course went to the Olympics in weightlifting. Nobody can dominate all 3 strength sports like he did. Incredible strength athlete.
Mark Henry is a genuine great and humble man, you can see it just by listening to him speak for a few minutes. I'm glad Tony Khan treats him the way he deserves, especially after everything he's done for the business. And I got to thank him for discovering Jade Cargill because she's been my favourite woman to watch ever since she debuted in AEW. A real badass and a hard worker
the fact that I believe in 03 or 04 he became only the second man in HISTORY to lift the thomas inch dumbbell over his head speaks volumes to how otherworldly strong this man is
Chris is great at listening to his guests. So many interviewers make it it about themselves or their list of questions. Others are too loose and irreverent. This guy has the perfect balance.
Hi Mark thank you for just being you. I've been a 40+ year wrestling fan and you always made me love wrestling when I kind of was getting a lack of interest then boom Mark pops up and you'd bring me back. Thank you! God bless you sir.
Mark Henry is literally Earths Mightiest Hero. I dont think anyone on earth can argue otherwise, and if they do, theyll just have to take it up with the History Books. Its all been documented. If Lex Luthor cant argue it, what makes anyone else think they can? Its a good job hes around otherwise it might be anarchy on this small little backwater planet of ours. Three cheers for the Big Guy!!!
Tony Chimel: "His Opponent Coming Down The Aisle From Silsbee,Tx Standing At 6'4 At A Combine Weight Of 439lbs The Worlds Strongest Man Mark Henry." Mark is Undoubtedly 1 of the Most Memorable BIG Men in the History of Professional Wrestling.. Great Interview Chris!
These are the sorts of guys I feel bad for thinking were a bit of a joke when I was a 13 year old during the Attitude era and obsessed with Hogan, Austin, Rock, Goldberg, DX, NWO etc. Even a guy like Triple H. You realise later maybe after a long break from watching pro wrestling (I stopped from 2008-2022) that not only were they actually great but the names above that I just listed wouldn't have be as big and as great as they were without guys like Mark, Triple H, Goldust and Vader. It took me a while but much respect Mark! Enjoy your success and after AEW reigniting my interest in the sport I hope I get to see you compete one last time so I can show the respect you deserve by applauding after your last match!
Great interview! Could listen to this hours and hours. Someone, maybe Mox or Danielson to hype up Blood & Guts or something, needs to use that line in a promo. Talking about the BCC: "We don't need weapons, we are the weapons"
Hi ya Chris Van Vliet, love this show ,you make everything gold and ofcourse Mr Henry. I am sure myself and many other would love to see the end of Mark Henry and Paul White match. Love and respect 💜💜🇨🇦🇨🇦💜💜
I ran into Mark at Waffle House in Huntsville, AL in 2003. He rolled up in a freaking limo lol. I had to say hello and shake his hand (his hand was 14x the size of mine lol). He was incredibly generous and very kind.
no doubt mark henry was one if not the strongest man in wrestling,,,dude is 100% scary legit......had an awesome wrestling career and i enjoyed watching his career,...hes a legend and a humble man.
You was my moms favorite wrestler in the attitude era sadly she passed away so everytime I see you I think of her so for that alone I appriciate you as well as what you have done god bless my large brother
Mark Henry seems like such a beautiful human being. Thanks to him for the appearance, and thank you Chris for doing this videos. And congrats on the birth of your child 🥳
I love Mark Henry this guy is a true gentleman and what the click did to him mark could have destroyed all of them with little effort but he was the bigger man and turned the other cheek we need more men like him
as a kid growing up & wanting to be a wrestler, I wished & prayed Mark Henry wasnt still wrestling when I grew up, so I wouldn’t have to get my ass kicked by him. 😭
I think when big show was talking about John’s strength he was more so talking about the ability to stabilize not just raw strength cause not many people on earth compare to marks totals in lifting
It's funny that mark talks about giving that advice.....since he knows what he's doing, yet 90% of that aew roster "doesn't need his or others advice" to me, that's a massive slap in the face.
Steve Austin was the top of the chain. No one did it like him. Yeah hogan was really popular but still the most people watching wrestling was when stone cold was cutting promos and stone cold stunnering everyone an there mommas lol. I’m saying when they were on the subject.

Mark Henry deserves everything what a legend
Ryback and his suppoters are trying to bring Henry down…
@@TheUsherrrr Ryback is such a weird guy 😂
@@reallysmallguy3871 true… but I don’t get why Ryback is trying to make Mark Henry look bad. Henry seems like a very nice guy tbh
I loved Mark Henry as a wrestler, and I also love hearing him as a storyteller. I'm so glad that another company was able to recognize his talents. Also, best of luck to his son and reaching his dreams!
Mark Henry is a national treasure.
My favorite sports entertainer in wrestling….”that’s what I do!” Always turned me up! Love you Mark!
Always! 💪🏾
No he isnt
Hell yeah he is
what's up with everyone saying everybody is a national treasure?
The ICONIC Mark Henry. He made you hate him. And he was scary.
Mark was a rare breed of a big man wrestler. He had the aura of being a menacing, cold blooded beast that most wrestlers didn't want to mess around with. It's shameful that guys like John Cena overshadowed the main bulk of mark's WWE career BC his hall of pain gimmick should have result with him being the WWE champion instead of the world heavyweight champion.
@@gunnyo50 yeah big men like him and kane lost more matches than they won sadly.
There is a risk in making them win too much, if Kane won too much I would never believe anyone could ever beat him even if they did.
🏮for me , Not really hate him , I thought the entrance and theme was quite strong, so I wanted to know his mindset, and what type of dude he is, and wrestling was definitely interesting, whenever he came out‼️ Glad he is one of the, greatest respected, Wrestlers in Wrestling‼️ yea he looks mean and is definition of hell-strong
Mable was better 😂
When he said about kids “you’d step in front of a train,” I also got teary-eyed thinking about my kids. Then I thought, “If Mark Henry did that, he might STOP the train!”
True
So much love for Mark Henry…. Loved the Hall of Pain run, I wish it lasted longer…you could tell he’s a genuinely good human being on top of it all
I was so hyped when this man won the WHC. I love, Mark. Good dude.
Outstanding interview. Get Mark on more often if you can. Well done, Chris!
I've been deep into wrestling most of my life, and I can honestly say that Chris is one of the most respectable interviewers that's ever been in the business.

I’m a simple man. I see Mark Henry, I click
Mark Henry 2007 was scary as hell.
Nobody to love, and nobody to love me..felt that one to the core today. I hope everyone finds someone they can share their love with. Great stuff ❤️
Let be all the way honest here Mark Henry got one of the top best/hardest theme song of all time..
Facts
Somebody's gonna get it
That's my go to song when I'm doing my max reps😂
Three six Mafia
Mark is by far my favorite person in Pro Wrestling. The man exudes passion, respect and love. He really makes you feel. Whenever he's on busted open, I'm there.

“It’s time! For the main event!” Worth every penny TK gives this Legend. Thanks to the Worlds Strongest and Poppa CVV.
Mark Henry one of the most underrated wrestlers ever.. how can you not like this man?! What an absolute gent
I try telling people Mark Henry is arguably the strongest man to ever live. He dominated tested powerlifting and his lifts still rank in the top 5-10 almost 30 years later. He won the first Arnold Strongman Classic like he said. And of course went to the Olympics in weightlifting. Nobody can dominate all 3 strength sports like he did. Incredible strength athlete.
"Hall of Pain" Mark Henry was what he should have been all along: an ass kicking monster heel. He should have had multiple world title reigns.
I love that his son casually squats and deadlifts 700 pounds.
Right?!
The kids seventeen! I slept on my left side too long last night and my whole day is thrown off!!
Mark Henry is a genuine great and humble man, you can see it just by listening to him speak for a few minutes. I'm glad Tony Khan treats him the way he deserves, especially after everything he's done for the business.
And I got to thank him for discovering Jade Cargill because she's been my favourite woman to watch ever since she debuted in AEW. A real badass and a hard worker
That salmon colored suit is iconic, Hall of Pain Mark 🔥 absolute legend
I loved his Hall of Pain run. Can’t believe that was over a decade ago now
It's a shame as long as he's been with wwe that he only got one title run. He deserved everything he got. He's awesome in interviews. He's so humble
💨 🎯
the fact that I believe in 03 or 04 he became only the second man in HISTORY to lift the thomas inch dumbbell over his head speaks volumes to how otherworldly strong this man is
It was 02 and he was the FIRST man to ever lift it.
U r an inspiration to me Mark Henry, the world’s strongest man.
Mark Henry is such a sweet human being you forget how strong he is
Chris is great at listening to his guests. So many interviewers make it it about themselves or their list of questions. Others are too loose and irreverent. This guy has the perfect balance.
Didn’t even watch the video and it’s already been liked
Great interview with Mark Henry CVV! And Hope your Parenthood continues being a dream come true 😎👍🔥
🙏❤️
Love Mark, such a down to Earth guy.
One minute in and I'm already enjoying this interview. Mark seems like a genuinely good guy and has been in the business for a longgggg time. #Legend
Chris thank you so much for having Mark. He is such a wonderful human. Please invite Tommy Dreamer
The hall of pain is part of the brickwork that built professional wrestling, no one can deny that and everyone best recognise.
Lol fool
@@rubberchixude youre a 30 something interested in KSI don't get to call people fool mate lmao
@@WhatwouldRoddyPiperdo lol and you're a virgin
I'm always impressed with his ability to articulate complex concepts in a clear simple way.
Hi Mark thank you for just being you. I've been a 40+ year wrestling fan and you always made me love wrestling when I kind of was getting a lack of interest then boom Mark pops up and you'd bring me back. Thank you! God bless you sir.
Mark Henry's Accolades Outside WWE Made him more vicious in the ring and always have a massive respect for the legend ❤
💨 He's an 💣lympic 3x medalist 🖐🏽
4 months with my son has gone by so fast, so enjoy that baby girl.🎉❤
Wow, that was a strong ending. He's absolutely right that family gives your life purpose.
Mark Henry is pure charisma. He was made for pro wrestling
Mark Henry is literally Earths Mightiest Hero. I dont think anyone on earth can argue otherwise, and if they do, theyll just have to take it up with the History Books. Its all been documented. If Lex Luthor cant argue it, what makes anyone else think they can?
Its a good job hes around otherwise it might be anarchy on this small little backwater planet of ours.
Three cheers for the Big Guy!!!

Mark is Undoubtedly 1 of the Most Memorable BIG Men in the History of Professional Wrestling.. Great Interview Chris!
That ending when he started talking about his family 😭 I'm not crying you're crying 😭😭 59:20

*Love Mark Henry such a humble guy! I've always enjoyed his work as a monster heel! WWE dropped the ball with him!*
Met Mark at a comic con a few years ago. Very nice man, absolute legend
Love Mark, great charismatic, emotional man
So much respect for Mark Henry and now Tony Khan as well!
Beautiful interview! Got me in the feels when Mark got emotional in the end
no doubt mark henry was one if not the strongest man in wrestling,,,dude is 100% scary legit......had an awesome wrestling career and i enjoyed watching his career,...hes a legend and a humble man.
Mark Henry definitely discovered some amazing talent 🔥🔥🔥🔥
I’ve met Mark Henry in person. Such a humble guy in person.
Growing up in the 90s.
Never has anyone been more loveable and more feared.
I knew I was going to enjoy this interview but I didn’t think I was going to enjoy it this much
Love these interviews keep them up !!!
I have to admit that I was never a big Mark Henry fan, if we talk about the WWE-Wrestler. But I can totaly see why you would like him as a person.
You was my moms favorite wrestler in the attitude era sadly she passed away so everytime I see you I think of her so for that alone I appriciate you as well as what you have done god bless my large brother
I'm from South Africa, and hearing Mark mention Cape Town as one of the cities where it would be great to showcase pro wrestling, I marked out
Trinidad thanks you for the shoutout.
In a world full of fake tough guys Mark Henry is about as authentic as there is in the world of being a p real tough guy.
What a gentleman. He's looking great and seems happy with life. Excellent interview
I get he doesn’t wrestle anymore, but man WWE really misses having this guy around, I love mark!
He is the strongest man alive
Huge Respect
Dope Interview Chris Salute To The World's Strongest Man👨 Mark Henry 💯👍
Mark Henry seems like such a beautiful human being.
Thanks to him for the appearance, and thank you Chris for doing this videos. And congrats on the birth of your child 🥳
Happy about Mark helping Hobbs and Cassidy. Orange is doing well recently, hopefully hobbs gets a monster push soon too.
I love Mark Henry this guy is a true gentleman and what the click did to him mark could have destroyed all of them with little effort but he was the bigger man and turned the other cheek we need more men like him
Mark Henry for President!
You can’t help but love Mark more listening to his interviews.
Such a good interview once again! especially that Iron Sheik story 😱
43:50 Mark Henry On Feeling Disrespected By Vince McMahon
Thanks a lot you guys made me cry at the end God bless you guys
Literally one of the most amazing people! I love mark Henry
I have heard other wrestlers not give it up to Mark for being the strongest and we all know the reason why,
Great podcast Henry is a true great and a gentleman
Congrats CVV.Happy for you,now the real work begins with ur daughter
Mark and mick are two of the all time nicest humans
Mark is an amazing guy met him once so genuine!
I hope to see him wear that Salmon Pink suit in AEW 😁🙏
as a kid growing up & wanting to be a wrestler, I wished & prayed Mark Henry wasnt still wrestling when I grew up, so I wouldn’t have to get my ass kicked by him. 😭
I think when big show was talking about John’s strength he was more so talking about the ability to stabilize not just raw strength cause not many people on earth compare to marks totals in lifting
I would love to see Mark sit down with Brian Shaw for a podcast. That would be a lot of fun.
I always knew Henry discovered Bianca & Cargil, didn't know about the other guys. He has a great eye.
It's funny that mark talks about giving that advice.....since he knows what he's doing, yet 90% of that aew roster "doesn't need his or others advice" to me, that's a massive slap in the face.
It's time for the main event!!!
These facts are facts. Mark was an absolute Monster!
I think Hobbs would be dope for a retirement match with the relationship they have
Mark you don't have to prove anything. Wwe knows what they lost. I love you big man
I was just thinking yesterday what does mark Henry do backstage
Steve Austin was the top of the chain. No one did it like him. Yeah hogan was really popular but still the most people watching wrestling was when stone cold was cutting promos and stone cold stunnering everyone an there mommas lol. I’m saying when they were on the subject.
wow I wasn't expecting to get a little emotional at the end of the interview 😂
Seeing this man with this full grown white beard really got me emotional & nostalgic. Mark Henry is really the GOAT.
