Mark Henry has revealed that he is planning to come out of retirement for one more big match, and by the sounds of it, Randy Orton could be the name on the cards. Such a match would favour Randy, but with chances for regular competition being fairly slim for Mark, this would be an opportunity not to miss.
Mark Henry Planning To Come Out Of Retirement To Face Randy Orton
During an interview with Busted Open Radio, he spoke on how he would rather take the risk of being knocked out than staying on the sidelines. He said: “I’d rather get punked out then get my a** whooped…Randy (Orton) is not someone to mess around with if you’re not 100 percent. Now I’m walking on two feet, and I’m 325 pounds.
“I’m lighter and trimmer than I’ve ever been, and I’m planning on having a match sometime in the next six months. I just want to have one match, and if Randy is the guy, so be it. Believe me, I’ll be ready, and I won’t be on one foot on a push scooter.”
So what is the motivation for another match? After all, Mark has achieved what most wrestlers could only dream of. Well, by the sounds of it, he has a record in sight that only a few in the wrestling scene hold. He added: “I got to wrestle in this decade, I got to.
“Big Show has wrestled in four, and I wrestled in three. I can’t let him have that over me. That’s my brother, as close to one as I got in wrestling. I love him, I’m glad that he landed somewhere he feels appreciated. I glad we can see him get his just due.”
This announcement should come as no surprise, given that Mark made similar statements in the past. Last year, he entertained the idea of coming out of retirement to face The Rock. Such a match up would have generated a big payday and given Mark the chance to face an all-time great.
Speaking at the time, he said: “I’m 2-0 against The Rock. I think I should give him the opportunity to get one to get a ‘chip against me.” Let us know what you think in the comment section down below.
