"I am enjoying it. The people have been very accepting and friendly and it is has been fun. I have been kept busy and made a few meet and greets, and I was at the tryouts over the weekend, and we have been out in the desert so there has been a lot of stuff and I have enjoyed it," said Henry. 

On Friday, Henry will take part in the 50-man Royal Rumble match which will also feature Rey Mysterio Jr, Great Khali, Big Show, and Chris Jericho. The Undertaker will also be in a casket match on the event. Henry said WWE hopes to put on a great show. 

"I always try to enjoy the moment. The one common denominator is seeing whether people are happy that you are coming and then how happy they are afterwards that you came. We are hoping to put on a great show for the audience so they will look forward to us coming back," said Henry.
