WWE Hall of Famer Mark Henry spoke with SHAK Wrestling about several topics, including how Ron “R-Truth” Killings has become a made man since his return to the company. This change came about because the fans played a significant role in bringing him back.
Henry said, “I don’t go by what is feudal. I want the life comment. And the life comment is that the fans chose Truth. They love him, they respect him, they’re entertained by him. And when he said that he was gone, people were like, ‘No, that’s the world of pro wrestling. We want what we want. We love what we love. And if you’re not going to give us what we want, we’re going to go somewhere else and get it.’ The WWE did not want that smoke. They didn’t want they didn’t want the fans to be like, ‘This is a guy that was number one in t-shirt sales. You gonna get rid of him?’ This is a guy that just the week before had a match against your champion and got as much of a reaction as the champion did walk into the ring. This is a guy that had three matches in the year prior, but he was still able to go to the ring and have everybody in the building cheer him. I dare you to name another wrestler that happened to this year. When the fans choose you, you’re a made man. You’re a made woman.”
