Mark Henry Says Vince McMahon “Wouldn’t Have Released R-Truth in a Million Years”

R-Truth’s WWE departure caught everyone off guard—but according to him, it never would’ve happened if Vince McMahon were still in charge.

During a segment on Busted Open Radio, WWE Hall of Famer Mark Henry recalled speaking directly with R-Truth after the news broke. When co-host Bully Ray asked whether Vince McMahon would have ever released Truth, Henry said the response was immediate.

“Not in a million years,” Mark said.

Henry and the hosts pointed out how close Vince was to R-Truth, explaining that the former WWE Chairman “liked R-Truth more than a lot of others.” Truth had an unmatched ability to make Vince laugh, which kept him in good standing no matter what was happening in the company.

The moment makes it clear that this was not just another routine contract ending—it was a decision made in a post-Vince WWE where loyalty and locker room love might not mean as much as they used to.

Was Vince McMahon the only reason R-Truth stayed employed for so long? And now that he’s gone, is WWE losing part of its heart and humor? Share your thoughts in the comments—we want to hear from you.
