Before Henry established himself as a menacing force in the ring, he took on several gimmicks during his early career. One of his most talked-about gimmicks was called s**ual chocolate. The band inspired the character in the movie "Coming to America." As part of his gimmick, Henry portrayed the role of a ladies' man who would get distracted during his matches. This gimmick turned out to be a hit, providing several iconic moments that are still talked about to this day.

The WWE legend recently took to social media to announce the anniversary of this gimmick. To celebrate the occasion, special merchandise would be available for purchase. He followed up with another message saying they also have white chocolate merch available, since he doesn't want to be prejudiced against one particular color of chocolate.

"We also have white chocolate. 🍫 that’s so all the racist don’t say that I’m prejudice against chocolate. Hahahaha!"

Mark Henry recently lashed out at AEW for disrespecting him

After leaving WWE, Mark Henry joined AEW, where he took on several roles, including color commentator, analyst, and talent scout. During this time, he influenced several wrestlers like Powerhouse Hobbs, who has started using a variant of Henry's finisher, the World's Strongest Slam. However, the Jacksonville-based promotion changed the finisher's name to Most Dangerous Slam.

Speaking on Busted Open Radio, Henry said he felt disrespected by AEW when they changed his finisher's name.

"They called it the Most Dangerous Slam (...) They don't call it the World's Strongest Slam. They're like, 'F*** Mark Henry.' F*** 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," Henry said. [H/T - Wrestling Inc.]

It will be interesting to see when Mark Henry will make his next appearance on WWE TV.
