• “F**k you. I’m bigger than AEW. You can’t disrespect me” – Mark Henry Slams AEW For Renaming His Finisher
Mark Henry signed with All Elite Wrestling in 2021, a time when a lot of names who used to work for WWE were making the jump to Tony Khan’s promotion. After spending three years there, he eventually parted ways.
Speaking on Busted Open Radio, Henry expressed frustration about AEW renaming his “World’s Strongest Slam” finishing move to the “Most Dangerous Slam.” The move is used by Powerhouse Hobbs of The Opps.
Here’s what the WWE Hall of Famer said:
“They called it the Most Dangerous Slam. They don’t call it the World’s Strongest Slam. They’re like, ‘F**k Mark Henry.’ F**k 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.
(Fans said that) AEW is mad that he (Henry) didn’t do what they wanted him to do, and they’re gonna punish him. Let me tell you this, AEW cannot punish me. There is nothing – I am bigger than AEW. There is nothing that they’ve done in the existence of their company that’s gonna make me feel like, ‘Oh, I need to bow down to that.’
I respect the talents, but when a mandate comes that (says) ‘screw Mark Henry, we’re gonna do this,’ then that takes it out of the talent’s hands. You do what your boss tells you to do. You don’t control my mouth. You don’t control my heart, my spirit.”
Mark Henry signed a Legends Contract with WWE earlier this year.

Dominik Mysterio has been on an extraordinary run, taking his championship reigns global with a grueling stretch of title defenses that has showcased his evolution into one of WWE’s hardest-working stars.
In just 13 days, Dominik has defended both the WWE Intercontinental Championship and the AAA Mega Championship a total of 6 times, competing in 4 countries across 3 different hemispheres!
His whirlwind schedule began in Perth, Australia, where he successfully defended his Intercontinental Title against Penta on RAW. From there, he stayed in Australia for another high-profile match, retaining the IC Title against CM Punk in Melbourne before traveling to Tokyo, Japan for back-to-back defenses: once again facing CM Punk, followed by a rematch against Penta in a fierce encounter that thrilled Japanese fans.
Dominik then returned to the United States, where he defended his IC Title against Rusev on RAW in Sacramento, California, before wrapping up the run with a cross-promotional clash in Mexico City, defeating Dragon Lee to retain the AAA Mega Championship at AAA Heroes Inmortales 2025 on October 25th.
The 28-year-old champion’s relentless travel schedule and willingness to defend his gold internationally have drawn praise from fans and insiders alike, with many noting how Dirty Dom has seamlessly blended his WWE schedule with his commitments to AAA.
