Mark Henry recently departed AEW after a three-year stint, and he's had plenty to say about his time there. Unfortunately, some of his comments have been taken out of context, and the WWE Hall of Famer struck back at one such incident today.

The World's Strongest Man is a co-host on Busted Open Radio and often gives his thoughts on WWE, AEW, and the wider wrestling world on the program. On a recent episode, Henry discussed the coaches and producers in All Elite Wrestling, noting that they sometimes received information late, resulting in unneeded pressure.

A fan jokingly took the 53-year-old's comment out of context on X (fka Twitter). Mark Henry lashed out in response and clarified what he meant.

"Bull sh*t! Not what I said. I said they are late getting information to coaches and then you’re pressing to get things done. Agents/Coaches they go in with ideas, but sometimes your ideas don’t matter so people shut up and just do what they asked to do. Weather it’s right or wrong," Henry wrote.

Mark Henry was recently spotted at WWE RAW

Mark Henry surprised fans when he signed with AEW in May 2021. He found success as an interviewer and commentator for the company and was especially popular on Friday Night Rampage.

The World's Strongest Man departed the young promotion earlier this year in order to spend more time with his Strong Kids Program and his son, OU collegiate wrestler, Jacob Henry.

Jacob recently signed with WWE, although he remains an amateur wrestler in college for now. However, he was spotted at last week's Monday Night RAW, which he attended with his father.

Jacob Henry only recently committed to the University of Oklahoma, so it could be a while before he makes his WWE debut. The young star has been highly successful in wrestling thus far, so a transition to the squared circle could come naturally for him in the future.
