He blows... hard. Sure he plays his role well, but it's a role that lacks any shred of talent or entertainment value.

He is certainly an effective monster heel for today's WWE. However, he is a relic of the Attitude Era, and I don't think the ten year contract was worth it. That said, he was great with D'Lo Brown.

I didnt like him Until they let him be a monster in 2006. He was wicked green in 96, the sexual choclate stuff was funny at times but it didnt do anything for me, he was too generic as a face in 02 on smackdown, now i truly enjoy his work as a veteran, he is in great shape and his in ring work has greatly improved. I like to think of him as WWE version of vader. I was very happy to see him win the ECW title for all his hard work and dedication of 12 years.

Was happy to see him win the ECW title. Thought he was good in this years MITB too... he obviously can't do much in the ring, but you can't deny that he works hard and is loyal to his job, especially after all he's been put through to keep it...

I like him...especially for what he is and the role he plays.
I view him much like i view Umaga, Kane and Big Show amongst others.

Obviously he's no HBK or Evan Bourne ... and he shouldn't be. My favorite wrestlers are the technical greats, but you need to have other styles ... if everyone was a prototype of Bret Hart and HBK, it'd be TOO commonplace and we wouldn't have variety in wrestling styles ... and that'd be pretty bad.
I dig Henry. He'll never be my favorite wrestler, but I think for a big guy he is very athletic and works much better matches than most big guys do. He is strong, has a cool look and is good in the ring for his size. I wouldn't mind seeing him be a main eventer. He's definitely better than guys like khali, etc.

I like Henry, no he's not a perfect techinical wrestler but he is solid on the mic. But he's a more believable monster than most of the other monsters on the mic and plays his role perfectly. He entertains me as a monster, which is what he's meant to portray.

His theme yes, but that's about where I draw the line.
The thing is that's it's ran it's course. We've seen him bend things and lift things which is all well and good but when you're a big man, your limited to what else you can do without an actual storyline and Mark has a good habit of being forgotten.
ECW Champion Mark was about the last time (and first time oddly enough) that I was a fan of his.

I like him. Always underused though. He so needs to be given a Kimbo Slice gimmick, imo.

I don't like him at all. He's so bland.

Probably because Mark Henry could've complained about racism and Michael Hayes, and the WWE would prefer to avoid that. Plus, maybe he had a good relationship with them overall. Who really knows?
