Mark Henry Arrested last Week
Mark
Henry was arrested and issued an "adult caution" following an incident
that occurred last weekend at The Hilton in Belfast, Ireland.
"I
was trying to get as many signatures as possible on the card and my
collectors book," WWE fan James McClay told the Derry Journal. "Mark
Henry was abusive and ignorant but I got his signature and walked away.
Suddenly he threw a drink around me from behind."
"I turned
around to see him stand and square up to me, suddenly John Cena and
Randy Orton grabbed his arms and held him back. I honestly thought I was
in one of the plot lines back stage. I felt like I was watching this
happen to someone else. Suddenly Chavo Guerrero piped up egging Mark
Henry on, that really annoyed me as I am a fan of his. I thought this is
going to get really bad as all these wrestlers were on their feet."
According
to McClay, Henry was offering to fight: "He kept saying 'Where I'm from
you do something when someone throws a drink around you.' "He kept
calling me a 'little punk bitch.'"
Here is the full report below:
It
was a case of wrong place - wrong time for one Inishowen man last
weekend as he suddenly found himself in a confrontation with WWE
behemoth Mark Henry, who, he claims, threw a drink over him before
verbally assaulting him.
The Journal has had it confirmed that
the World Wrestling Extreme star was arrested and given an adult caution
following the fracas. Fahan's James McClay found himself staring down
Henry, nicknamed The World's Strongest Man, and his WWE buddies.
James, a life long wrestling devotee, attended the event at The Odyssey on Sunday with his fiancee, Tanya.
They
even booked the same hotel as the stars of the ring. Finding himself
sat at The Hilton Hotel bar among the stars of the WWE rota he asked
several of them to sign a birthday card for his ten year old son Jack.
"I
was trying to get as many signatures as possible on the card and my
collectors book. Mark Henry was abusive and ignorant but I got his
signature and walked away. Suddenly he threw a drink around me from
behind.
"I turned around to see him stand and square up to me, suddenly John Cena and Randy Orton grabbed his arms and held him back.
"I
honestly thought I was in one of the plot lines back stage. I felt like
I was watching this happen to someone else. Suddenly Chavo Guerrero
piped up egging Mark Henry on, that really annoyed me as I am a fan of
his. I thought this is going to get really bad as all these wrestlers
were on their feet."
According to James, Mark was offering to
fight: "He kept saying 'Where I'm from you do something when someone
throws a drink around you.'
"He kept calling me a 'little punk bitch.'"
Suddenly WWE security appeared and escorted youth worker, James out of the bar.
"The
wrestlers were all genuinely nice people Jamie Noble, Randy Orton, John
Cena, Ted DiBiase, Hornswoggle, William Regal, Seamus and even Mark
Henry signed the card but then it all kicked off and I was left in
shock. It ruined the weekend to be honest, I was left humiliated
afterward. He did this soaking me and my fiancee and our friend. The
birthday card is all covered in drink also."
James who travelled
to see Wrestlemania in Texas last year plans to get married in March at
Wrestlemania 27 in Atlanta, Georgia next year.
"I don't mind going there but I don't think I'll go back to Belfast - what if he comes into the hotel bar again?"
The PSNI confirmed that one male was given an adult caution following an incident in the Hotel Bar.
