Mark Henry & Bully Ray Praise Ron Simmons As A Locker Room Leader

Mark Henry and Bully Ray have heaped praise on Ron Simmons for being a locker-room leader over the course of his career.

Speaking on a recent edition of “Busted Open Radio,” the two WWE Hall of Famers opined on Simmons’ locker-room leader status, what it was like working with Ron, and more.

You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:

Mark Henry on Simmons’ locker room leader status: “He was a father to all of us… He was like, ‘Look, this is not how it’s supposed to be. You’re gonna brick yourselves.’ He was like, ‘It’s about longevity,’ I always try to imitate him but he’s impossible to imitate, ‘You understand me? When I tell you what I told you, you need to pay attention…’ To be a historical influence on not just me but on hundreds and maybe even thousands of wrestlers I appreciate that.”

Bully Ray on his experiences with Simmons: “I don’t even know if me and Mark can put into words how much Ron Simmons meant to the locker room, meant to the industry, what kind of a friend he is, what kind of a mentor. I can’t say enough good things about him.”
