Mark Henry reveals he used to exchange Christmas cards with a surprising legend

Mark Henry has been around the wrestling industry for a very long time. He recently revealed he used to exchange Christmas cards with a surprising legend.

Before Mark Henry invented the Hall of Pain and went on a rampage in WWE, he was known for being a comedic wrestler. He was involved in many funny and memorable skits with several stars like Mae Young. This also brought out Henry's personality and prepared him for his role as a main event player. During this time, he was also involved in a few funny segments with Paul Reubens, the actor who was known for portraying the iconic character Pee Wee Herman.

The WWE Hall of Famer recently took to social media to reveal that he used to exchange Christmas cards with Paul Reubens until the latter got too sick to send them back.

"I wasn’t always just Hall of Pain. I could do comedy with the best of them and Pee Wee Herman was very cool. We would send Christmas cards until he got too sick to send them back!"

Mark Henry feels disrespected by AEW

After leaving WWE, Mark Henry joined AEW, where he took on many roles such as a coach, talent scout, mentor, commentator, and many more. He remained with Tony Khan's promotion until last year. During his tenure with the Jacksonville-based promotion, he was a great influence on many of the wrestlers, including Powerhouse Hobbs, who has been using a version of Henry's finisher, the World's Strongest Slam. However, the move has been renamed to Most Dangerous Slam.

Speaking on Busted Open Radio, the WWE legend made it clear that he was not happy about AEW renaming his finisher and felt disrespected by the move.

"They called it the Most Dangerous Slam (...) They don't call it the World's Strongest Slam. They're like, 'F*** Mark Henry.' F*** you, how about that? That's to whose decision that is [to rename the slam]. You cannot disrespect me and expect me to kiss your a** about it. I'm not gonna do it. I'd rather be fired or kicked off the air before I let somebody feel like they all got power over me," Henry said. [H/T - Wrestling Inc.]

It remains to be seen what the future holds for the World's Strongest Man.
