The Austin Chronicle just ran an interview with ECW champion and Austin resident Mark Henry. I had the chance to talk to both Mark and Terry Todd, the man who helped get him into competitive lifting and from there into wrestling. You can find the interview at http://www.austinchronicle.com/gyrobase/Issue/story?oid=oid:645907. It was part of a larger feature about professional wrestling in Austin, which you can read at http://www.austinchronicle.com/gyrobase/Issue/story?oid=oid:645906. (Thanks to Richard Whittaker)

If you take a look at WWE Alumni page, they have placed his bio page there and not on the Smackdown! roster page to further sell the story of him being retired. Not sure if anybody has caught this. (Thanks to Brian D. Wozniak)

Local commercials are advertising Triple H vs. Edge for the WWE Championship on this week's WWE SmackDown. The match will most likely be a dark match main event. (Thanks to everyone who informed me)
