Let's be honest the only things Ahmed got right was that Steve stole his spot not by being racist but by working hard while he wasn't Austin just blew right past him . Ahmed was given the keys to the castle Vince was all in but he fumbled the bag and is now incredibly bitter

[@erinmeggik391]

He had the IQ of a Moonpie

[@fjccommish]

Exactly. Ahmed thought he was there. The almost greats like Austin and the greats like Hogan and Flair were always working to get there.

[@pikkon899]

@@fjccommish Ahmed was there. Even the wrestlers that didn't like Ahmed all say that Ahmed was massively over and he really was back then. The question isn't if Ahmed thought he was over, it's the statements about Steve being racist that's the problem. Ahmed blamed everyone for his career faults except for himself. He was unsafe to work with and was injury prone along with having a horrible attitude. Ahmed ruined his career, not Steve Austin.

[@fjccommish]

@@pikkon899 Right. He was there, and he had an ego about it. He was arrived, and he thought he now could coast. The greats are great because they never think they're there - they're always striving for more.

Mark was freakishly massive when he was very young. I doubt if he to hgh, because if be did he would of looked even bigger. From his teens you could see how massive he was growing naturally. Unless your saying he took hgh at 13-16 to get that overly massive look he started getting then.

This story Mark told is mostly bullshit. Ron/Faarooq was never out for 9 months, and it was Ron who hurt Ahmed's kidney and put Ahmed out for months. This was Ron's WWF debut, so this whole revenge story is bullshit.

@@charlesmarcus7864You must have missed the 9 minute story about how he carelessly kicked Fasrooq and lacerated one of his internal organs. Just look at how many guys he injured, how careless he was in the ring, and how unreasonable he was backstage, and call it for what it is: he was a prima Donna who couldn’t work and who demanded to be treated like a superstar.

I love this new platform of wrestling I grew up with characters you get to hear these stories now

[@seanbond6454]

“Somebody gotta answer for this” 😂

[@JoeMACofNAC]

I still have my Mark Henry wrestling figure. I would always pretend he was lifting ridiculous stuff like an entire lego set or a globe lol

[@RetroCrisis]

Wow this was great! The story of the Nation of Domination would make a great 2 hour special. So many stories

[@TurnbuckleTimes]

Hopefully 'The Iron Claw' does well and loads of studios jump on the bandwagon and make more wrestling themed movies/docs!

[@Rjensen2]

​@@TurnbuckleTimesWord is, the movie is complete garbage. They even go with the b.s. story about Kerry training for the '80 Olympics. Chris doesn't even exist. All biopics are almost complete nonsense, and the Iron Claw won't change that at all. And apparently the guy playing Flair is a complete embarrassment.

[@NeonKC]

Mark henry in this clip sounds so like down to earth and smooth with it

[@demariodixon716]

Great interview

[@michaelnovakov7803]

That picture of a young Mark henry. So adorable. 😁

[@imjaylen6461]

I was born in 1997, so I didn't know much about Ron until a lil later but he seems like a real life OG who'll knock you out if you piss him off enough😅

[@joebaumgart1146]

Still not as tough as Meng though. Meng is one of the few men Andre was terrified of. The nicest man in the world, but also the toughest. Andre was in the ring intoxicated and he no sold Meng and Meng proceeded to beat the hell out of the 7'4 Andre The Giant.

[@fatalsniper3413]

Stop being gullible. Ron could fight but being able to beat up lesser fighters doesn’t make you an OG. What makes you an OG is how you stand up when you don’t have the advantage. I want to see how he was when faced with Shamrock or Blackman.

[@jamespalmer7860]

You are correct. All the ilder qrestlers in his era all say one thing. Rin ran that locker room. You dont get that rep unless you did some shit to prove the posistion. "DAMN"

[@Evil-Rod-Farva]

The funniest story is about him going to the gym. Ron would walk in to the gym in jeans and cowboy boots. Proceed to do a 400 lb bench with absolutely no warm up, comb his hair, and leave. As someone that struggles with 250, I couldn’t imagine just walking in like that.

[@Jeff_Pryce]

Look up what he and Bradshaw did to the Public Enemy for no-selling on Heat. That match was absolutely brutal.

[@Blakarot11]

Somebody gonna get their ass kicked 🤣

[@chicagojeff]

Its amazing listening to these interviews the one consistent theme is the dislike for Ahmed Johnson LOL

[@toomuchmarquanes24]

😂😂😂😂 anyone that can sit down in a strip club sober is a very strong human being

[@TurnbuckleTimes]

🤣

[@brianbell3229]

That's some scary stuff right there 😂

[@coolheartsandminds3326]

thats crazy i never knew the crazy issues the wwf or wwe wrestlers back stage would have

[@khoderAhmad-vs1qi]

you’d be silly to piss off Ron Simmons guys a Machine

[@Micheal_Anthony_1996]

There's a lot of tough guys in wrestling. But in the toughest of the tough, you got to put Ron's name in that group.

[@lamotte]

I was laughing when Mark said he would go to strip clubs as his vice cause that’s where I met him at lol Stars in LA off of Rosecrans

[@ericbowers1471]

Ron Simmons and Haku were the 2 guys you didn’t mess with

[@bornfromforeign]

Haku would mop the floor to Ron Simmons

[@Lovekills03]

Fun fact I saw mark Henry at a hole in the wall gentlemen’s club in Birmingham Alabama after he had knee surgery. Sitting by himself with no security. Not that he needed it. My brother asked was it him he said yeah motioned us over and we drank all night. So down to earth and so much fun to hang out with.

[@boombringer4078]

mark henry is a real inspirational guy!!

[@TurnbuckleTimes]

💯

[@billfisher304]

Especially for the Strip Club comment!

[@ChrisShameless]

For those who dont know,Somas are heavy muscle relaxers....they were basically roofies

[@donsmith9194]

I wonder why would he do that?

[@PhoenixDawnX77]

​@@donsmith9194 to get him hooked. Then to be his dealer or hook him up with his dealer and/or watch his career burn out from being hooked. Happens all the time in competitive sports or business.

[@Dnero518]

​@@donsmith9194 lol for real like what was his next move? Did he wanna take his car since he said he left them two after or dic he wanna violate them buns?😂 Not sure what else it could be, maybe Ahmed didn't wanna leave where they were yet but Marc had the vehicle and was ready to go. Idk.

[@rener44]

This is such a great story and the way Mark tells it lol

[@reen4117]

Why i keep hearing bad stories about Ahmed Johnson? That was one of my favorites when i was a kid

[@christianbrown274]

Didn’t Ron Simmons kick Ahmed Johnson in his kidney, and injured him first in his debut?

[@whisperienced]

Yeah and Ahmed said in an interview recently he did this in retaliation.

[@Raven12516]

I think so. It's on record that Johnson thinks Ron did it on purpose out of jealousy.

[@kinglord7707]

​@@whisperiencedOh so it was Ahmed who ruined Ron's debut early 96

[@Imhim336.]

@@kinglord7707 you sound crazy no Ron injured Ahmed on his debut

[@SolidSonicTH]

Ruined his IC title push too.

[@Shauny7488]

I feel like, if Mark Henry doesnt like you, youre the problem

[@56postoffice]

As a black guy in the UK, I watched this period of WWE and I tell you something: I would watch Steve Austin all day long over Ahmed Johnson. Never liked him and after hearing Mark Henry right here, I was spot on then. Mark's a righteous brother, man, always rated him.

[@prestonmccray5743]

As a "black guy" in the US, I disrespectful disagree.

[@LS-bw7jt]

My man 🇬🇧

[@Joey18083]

Ahmed was an impressive looking man. An absolute unit. But, he always seemed angry with the world, and I could never work out if that was just his character or him in real life. It seems to be in real life if we listen to Mark Henry.

[@RobwLPOC]

The rest of the guys who were members of the nation of domination at the same time do not exactly like him either. The only nice thing they say about him is that he look like a million bucks and he did get over.

[@grant1739]

As a white guy in the usa i liked Ahmed thought he was gonna be the next ultimate warrior, liked the big wrestlers when i was younger

Gracious words are like a honeycomb, sweetness to the soul and health to the body.
