Wardlow has been on a roll for the past few months, as he has managed to gain a huge fan following. Mr. Mayhem worked hard to make himself one of the best things about the company. Mark Henry also believes Wardlow has potential similar to what Brock Lesnar had.
Ward-Dog won the TNT title from Scorpio Sky on AEW Dynamite last month. Since then, he has been a fighting champion. He has been booked well for most fans and it stems back to his feud with MJF.
While speaking to Bill Apter, Mark Henry gave massive props to Wardlow. Mark Henry claimed that Wardlow has the same potential as past stars such as Brock Lesnar.
“I think Wardlow is an unbelievable competitor. And he’s going to be even better. The Wardlow we see right now, in a best of three, I think a Mark Henry might beat that guy. But in the next two years, Wardlow is going to be the most dominant force in pro wrestling since Brock Lesnar…”
Wardlow said his top priority is to restore the title’s prestige by issuing open challenges. It remains to be seen how AEW will be booking Wardlow in the coming weeks.
