Teddy Long explains the reason why WWE legend Mark Henry left AEW

Mark Henry's sudden exit from AEW came as a bit of a surprise. Many critics and legends have given their thoughts on this, and former SmackDown General Manager Teddy Long is the latest to join this list.

Speaking on Sportskeeda's The Wrestling Time Machine podcast, Teddy Long speculated that Henry left AEW because he wanted to be there for his son.

Now there's two people that really certainly love each other. I have watched Jacob grow right up with him, man, and Mark has always been a great dad, been right there for him and all, every one of his appearances, games or whatever. When Mark could make it, he was always there if he wasn't on the road. But right now, he has really got good time where he is able to be with him." [0:58 onwards]
