Mark Henry

I've made no bones about the fact that I love how WWE are using Mark Henry. Quite frankly, this is how WWE should always use Mark Henry. Look at the man. If you saw him in the street, you wouldn't want a fight with the guy. He legitimately looks like a beast who can kick people's asses.

Yet, WWE have missed the boat with Henry over the years. They've flirted with the idea of “Monster Mark”. But that's all they've done - flirted. They've never really gone the whole hog and made him World Champion. But, believe it or not, I think 2011 is as good a time as any to pull the trigger on that.



I believe WWE should put the World Title on Mark Henry.



Yes, Mark Henry. Yes, THAT Mark Henry. In Mark Henry, WWE have the potential to create a monster. A beast. An absolute domination machine. If it were me, I'd put the belt on Henry at SummerSlam. Or Survivor Series, it doesn't matter.



And I'd have him run through everybody as World Champion. I mean EVERYONE. Well, everyone except the guy WWE is looking at as the next World Champion. That guy is built up during Henry's reign. Then, at WrestleMania, that guy topples Mark Henry. This domination machine taken down by (fill in the blank). That guy is now a hero.

The Rock returns to WWE

 The crowd at "WWE Monday Night Raw" got a big surprise in addition to the usual array of body slams and chair shots: the return of The Rock.

 The Rock -- better known these days as Dwayne Johnson, star of "The Other Guys" and the upcoming "Fast Five" -- was announced as the host of WrestleMania XXVII on April 3. He took the ring in Anaheim, Calif., and showed that seven years away from the ring haven't diminished his ability to command a live crowd.

 Rolling through his stock of catchphrases -- "Finally, The Rock has come back to ...," "It doesn't matter what you think!" and, of course, "If you smeeeeellll what The Rock [dramatic pause] is cookin'," Johnson had the crowd pretty much eating out of his hand.

 Whether The Rock actually climbs into the ring remains to be seen, although it's not necessarily a bad bet.
