Mark Henry & Lio Rush Continue To Trade Jabs, Henry Threatens Lawsuit

The drama between Mark Henry and Lio Rush does not seem to be slowing down anytime soon.

Mark Henry is threatening to sue Lio Rush for defamation, sparking from a series of tweets published by Lio last week. Lio said Mark Henry destroys the chances African American wrestlers have for success and ‘tears his own people’ down. Lio has also publicly called Mark Henry a liar and demanded an apology.

Now it is Henry demanding the apologies. Speaking with TMZ Sports, Mark said, “If you go down to the performance center at NXT, probably 25 I think, people of color in the facility, probably about 80 plus percent of them I helped get them there. I mean, it’s completely opposite.”

Henry thinks Lio is doing this for publicity. He said, “He knew that I get a lot of attention. I have a lot of followers and he released the album, or song, or something, and he wanted to use that to get some attention. Get some buzz. If he would’ve called me, I would’ve done it anyway. We would’ve just worked it. I would of really talked it up, we would of made world news, but now he said something slanderous.”

Mark ended the interview by saying he is seriously considering a lawsuit and has been in contact with his lawyers. “My lawyer went to Harvard. I don’t know what kinda lawyers he’s dealing with, but I got those Ivy League people around me, and they’re pissed! He needs to apologize.”

You can see the full interview below. Since then, the two have continued to trade jabs on Twitter and you can take a look at all of the tweets below. What do you think about this situation? Let us know in the comments below.
