Mark Henry hasn’t ruled out having an official retirement match at some point.
All Elite Wrestling‘s Mark Henry was a recent guest on INSIGHT with Chris Van Vliet to discuss a wide variety of subjects. When asked about his choice of the salmon-colored jacket for his fake retirement speech on WWE RAW, Henry said he was just feeling the color that day.
“Because I was feeling salmon that day. Like, I saw that jacket and I was like, that is my retirement jacket. There was blues and greens and different colors, but that one like, that’s the one, it chose me when I saw it. I was like chef’s kiss.”
When asked where the jacket is now, Henry said WWE is shipping it back to him after being on loan for some exhibits at WrestleMania.
“That jacket now is being shipped to me,” Mark Henry revealed. “I put it on loan with WWE so they can do the exhibits at WrestleMania and their different things, but now it’s coming back to me. I’m going to set up my own exhibit.”
When asked if he’s thought about having an official retirement match, Henry admits that he has, but he doesn’t know who the person would be right now.
“You know what, I’ve thought about it, and every time I think about it, I think who? Who would be the person,” Mark Henry asked. “And I guess you could put up a poll someday and say, Who would you like to see Mark Henry have his last match against? You better do it fast, because every day I wake up, I’m thinking I might have to just go put that to bed.”
When asked if he would be open to doing a retirement match in All Elite Wrestling, Henry said he would have to think about it, and depending on how his body feels while training, he’d be open to a conversation.
“You know what, I have to think about it, and I have to start training and see how my body feels; I haven’t took a bump in years,” Mark Henry admitted. “I’d be open though, to a conversation.”
