5 Things we learned from Mark Henry's WWE Network Special

#1 How the documentary sums up Mark Henry in a nutshell

Who is Mark Henry?

A Strongman, Powerlifter, Father, Olympian, Friend, Champion, Hall of Famer, Ambassador, Record Holder, Mentor, Role Model, Inspiration: All of these words are used to describe Mark Henry in a promotional feature for this particular documentary.

It goes without saying that Mark Henry is one of the most genuine superstars to ever wrestle for WWE, and many even believe that he was perfect to represent WWE as an ambassador.

But there was a lot of conflict in between. There was anger. The 'Hall of Pain' persona was created out of frustrations leading up to that particular point in his life.

The documentary starts off by portraying Mark Henry as a small-town boy who only hoped to make his community proud. Between the beginning and the end, we see how Mark Henry went through several ups and downs to achieve that goal. The documentary ends with Henry contemplating about the things he would have left for the community even after he is gone.

In the end, Henry realizes that he has achieved his dream, and from a broader perspective, the documentary does a great job in summarising his life outside WWE too, all of which provides a fresh perspective towards the life and career of the World's Strongest Man, Mark Henry.
