Hall Of Pain

By Scott Keith on September 12, 2019


Reading the reheating topic from earlier today got me thinking. Assume that Mark Henry had his Hall of Pain gimmick in the Attitude Era instead of lingering as Sexual Chocolate. Would it have worked then and left him as a legit main eventer for the next decade, or was 2011 just the right place and time for him?

I think he could have been a credible challenger for Austin with that gimmick had the foundation been laid beforehand, but really his 96-97 rookie years were so bad for him that it would have backfired anyway. He was better off as comic relief.
