Braun Strowman wound up signing with WWE after Mark Henry scouted him, and the “Monster Among Men” recently appeared on “The Ranveer Show” to discuss Henry scouting him at the Arnold Classic, the best lesson Henry ever taught him, and more.
You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:
On Mark Henry scouting him for WWE at the Arnold Classic: “He saw something in me. I was imagining I was Hulk Hogan when I was a kid ripping my shirt off again, throwing it into the crowd, having 20,000 people go crazy at the Arnold Classic. Mark Henry saw something and called Vince McMahon and said, ‘You need to look at this kid’… He put his name on the line, bought my plane ticket, flew me down to Florida. Mark Henry personally picked me up from the airport, took me all around, showed me a good time, was there for my tryout and I owe so much to that man.”
On the best lesson Henry taught him: “‘God gave you two ears and one mouth for a reason. Shut up, listen.’ That’s my advice that I pass on now to the younger athletes that ask me.”
