Speaking on the Hall of Fame with Booker T & Brad Gilmore, Henry was asked to describe his current role and his title in AEW.

“I never changed titles. You know me. I’ve always been a conduit. I always been a guy that wanted the greater good to happen. I always wanted everybody to get to the top. I always wanted success for everybody. There was a time when I had a role. I helped run the community effort, the educational programming I ran. I don’t do that now. It’s a hard job that requires a lot of time. I’m spending more time working on the psychology side of wrestling with each individual wrestler. I like the fact that I can influence guys into seeing that everything don’t work for them. It’s more of being a psychology coach than a physical coach. We got guys that teach them how to do it. I teach them where to do it, when to do it, and why you’re doing it. Those are the things I feel like is the more important elements in pro wrestling," Henry said.
