5 best swerves in professional wrestling

#4 The Mark Henry retirement speech

When in the midst of his Hall of Pain gimmick, Mark Henry came out to the ring dressed in a garish peach suit and started talking about retirement, people really got behind him. He spoke from the heart and invoked a great sense of passion from the WWE Universe. He was saying goodbye.

Even John Cena -- who was at ringside -- was moved by the speech that "The World's Strongest Man" delivered. Big Match John proceeded to hug the big man but then, it happened. In one of the best swerves of all-time, Henry proceeded to deliver The World's Strongest Slam.

He played everyone like puppets on a string and instantly created a moment that will be forever remembered in the world of professional wrestling.
