During a conversation with Inside the Ropes,, Henry didn’t hold back about the hell he went through in his early WWE days. After breaking his ankle, he says other wrestlers hid his crutches, leaving him helpless. That’s when The Kliq—Shawn Michaels, Scott Hall, Kevin Nash, and Sid Vicious—rolled in and started mocking him. Henry warned Shawn to back off. But Michaels kept on and Henry finally snapped.
>“I said, ‘Hey man, I don’t feel like playing. Enough is enough. I’ve been doing this all day. I’m done.’”
>“You’re too little to be talking to me, man. I’ll kill you. There ain’t enough people standing behind you right now to stop me from taking your life… If you don’t kill me, I’mma kill every last one of you when I get back.”
Shawn panicked and told the locker room, “Y’all need to do something with this dude. He is nuts.” But Henry fired back.
>“He gonna be the first one to run like a coward when he sees what I do to one of y’all.”
>“I wasn’t nuts. I was real.”
The incident forced Vince McMahon to step in. And while most people would’ve been fired on the spot, Vince sent Henry to Canada to train with Bret Hart.
>“Vince was like, ‘Damn it. You can’t threaten the top guys.’ I said, ‘He wasn’t acting like a top guy.’”
Bret—who wasn’t exactly on great terms with Shawn either—took Henry under his wing and had him train in the Hart Dungeon under Stu Hart. That year in Calgary turned Henry into what he calls a “weapon” and saved his career.
>“If I wouldn’t have went to Canada, I wouldn’t have been in wrestling. I would have quit because I was tired of them.”
