And it wasn't like there was an argument or fussing or fighting. We ended on good terms, and I thought that was a lesson a lot of people need to learn. Everything has seasons.” “I want to have the producers on to talk about this…..”: Mark Henry opens up to co-panelist Bully Ray

I want to have the producers on to talk about this down the road. Like, the stuff that ended up on the cutting room floor, it was a year and a half, and there was a lot of stuff that we didn't use, and I want to ask them some questions.”Henry said he had a detailed discussion with the directors about additional stories from his life which should make it to the final cut.
