During an interview with Josh Nason of the Wrestling Observer, All Elite Wrestling's own JD Drake reflected on his conversation with Anthony Henry, after Henry received his release from WWE. Check out the highlights below.
On Anthony's release from WWE in 2021:
“He was ready to quit. He had made it and he was doing well, and then all the sudden it got pulled out from under him. Man, the conversations I had with him. I was like, ‘Look man, you’re too good. There’s no way. I’m not going to allow you to just quit. Whatever I’ve got to do to get your ass back in a professional wrestling ring.’ ”
On the "unreal" abilites of Henry:
“He is unreal. There’s nobody on the planet he can’t keep up with. You put him in the ring with Brian Danielson for 15 minutes and I promise you he will blow your mind. I promise. He’s a special type of human, man.”
