Henry was billed as the "World's Strongest Man" after he qualified for the 1992 Barcelona Olympics Weightlifting Competition, where he finished tenth in the super heavyweight class. After the WWF sponsored Henry in the 1996 Olympic Games in Atlanta, he was signed to a ten-year contract, an anomaly in pro wrestling.

He won a competition where the title was "the worlds strongest man" and held a world record in weight lifting that has since been shattered. The WWE will take a title and a gimmick and run it into the ground (*see Golddust).

Well, he may be the strongest wrestler in the wwe. But, not the world's strongest man.

I actually remember seeing him winning a Silver Medal in the 1996 Olympics, before he became a wrestler. He is legit.
Logically, you can always find at least one other person in the whole wide world that is stronger than he is. When you do find that person, there is another person stronger than he, and so on, and so on.

yea, just like Batista is an Animal, Undertaker is really a deadman and can't be killed, Kane is really a monster, Umaga is really a bulldozer, Booker T is really a king, Mick Foley is really indestructible, Kurt Angle is really a wrestling machine, and the Big Show is really an athlete, and the spirit squad are really cheerleaders

He was at one time. The title changes quite a bit, but usually sticks to strongmen after they win it.
