Welcome to Crossbody of Work, a show where we break down a wrestler’s career through five of their biggest matches.

Hoss month continues, and somebody’s gonna get their wig split. This week we dive into the career of Mark Henry. One of the longest-tenured WWE stars has had a ton of roles in the company. We look at his career from his run in the Nation of Domination to his Sexual Chocolate days, all the way to his time as a world champion and inducting folks into the Hall of Pain. On top of all of these matches, Evan & Javier also talk about:
