Former World Heavyweight Champion Mark Henry could be the next name to join the WWE Hall Of Fame's class of 2018, according to PWInsider.

'The World's Strongest Man' retired from in-ring competition in mid-January, freeing him to enter the HOF. He'd join Goldberg and The Dudley Boyz as confirmed inductees, with former Women's Champion Ivory, the late Bam Bam Bigelow, and musician Kid Rock expected to follow.

There's no word on who may have the honours of inducting Henry into the HOF, but Paul Heyman is scheduled to introduce Goldberg at the ceremony.


Mark's induction is well deserved. A former Olympian, he was famously handed a huge 10-year contract in 1996, but took a long time to develop into a full-formed performer.

His early days were characterised by green ring work and lengthy injuries, with the former 'Sexual Chocolate' sent back to developmental on multiple occasions. By the early-2010s, however, Henry had developed into a tremendous all-rounder, with his 'Hall Of Pain' particularly successful. He held the World Heavyweight Championship for 91 days between September and December 2011, but also retired as a former ECW and European Champion, and a three-time Slammy Award winner.
