Mark Henry didn't reach his peak until late on in his WWE career. However, his final matches on a WWE pay-per-view largely missed the mark but The World's Strongest Man was still a marquee name.
The World's Strongest Man is one of the strongest men to grace a WWE ring. Henry was plagued with injuries throughout his career, which is why he did not reach his potential until later on. However, Mr. McMahon was fond of Henry which is why he got many chances to prove his worth with an unlikely World Heavyweight Title run in 2011.
