The former WWE Heavyweight Champion last competed at the promotion's Greatest Royal Rumble show on April 27th, 2018. Since then, he has joined AEW in 2021 and assumed the role of commentator and coach. During the most recent episode of Busted Open Radio, Mark Henry revealed that he has nerve damage. He compared his situation to WWE legend Lex Luger, who has recently relied on a wheelchair for movement. "To be honest, to be completely transparent, I got nerve damage is why I don’t wrestle," Henry said. “It will just go out, and I’ll be on the ground, and there have been times where I do too much at AEW, and I have to take a wheelchair through the airport, and it sucks because I’m prideful, and I hate it when I can’t walk through the airport."

"Feels like my leg is on fire. I’m not saying for a pity party for me; I’m saying that Darren Droszdov is in a wheelchair for the rest of his life, paralyzed from the chest down.” (H/T: WrestlingINC) News of Henry's nerve damage potentially rules out a return to the ring in the near future.
