Will Brodus Clay Take Over the Hall of Pain?

On the December 26 ^th , 2011 episode of Monday Night Raw, John Laurinaitis announced that Brodus Clay would be in action on the second day of 2012. Clay's return can go smooth, if the WWE allows Clay to take over 'The Hall Of Pain'. 'The Hall Of Pain' was started by Mark Henry, but the idea originated as 'The House Of Pain'. When Clay was ready to return to action the WWE Creative Team did not have anything planned for him. Clay took it upon himself to come up with his own idea, 'The House Of Pain'. The WWE Creative Team liked Clay's idea, that they decided to use it for Mark Henry instead. Now the WWE Creative Team has the opportunity to do the right thing by giving Henry's 'Hall Of Pain' to Clay. Some members of the WWE Universe may not know that Henry is currently injured; However, the WWE has not written him off television. Henry's injury caused him to lose the World Heavyweight Championship at Tables, Ladders, and Chairs to The Big Show. On the following episode of SmackDown the two were scheduled to have a Match. The Match never took place as Henry was not medically cleared to compete.

On the following episode of Raw, Henry was booked in a Gauntlet Match. CM Punk would have to run the gauntlet against Jack Swagger, Dolph Ziggler, Mark Henry, and John Laurinaitis. If Punk defeated Swagger he would move onto Ziggler, if he defeated Ziggler he would move onto Henry, and so on. Punk was unable to defeat Ziggler which means Henry did not have to compete.

On the following SmackDown, Henry was scheduled to be in a Tag Team Match with David Otunga. The Match never took place, instead David Otunga faced The Big Show.

Since Henry has been unable to compete for quite some time, the WWE should write him off television. The best way for the WWE to write Henry off television is to have Clay take over 'The Hall Of Pain' by placing Henry in it. This scenario works out for both Superstars. Henry gets the time off he needs to recover and Clay has a successful return. Clay's return will be successful because Henry has put the WWE's biggest Superstars in 'The Hall Of Pain'. Those Superstars included The Big Show, Kane, and The Great Khali. If Clay puts Henry in 'The Hall Of Pain', Clay looks like a force to be reckoned with. Will the WWE do the right thing by giving Clay credit for his idea or will the Superstar returning on the second day of 2012 cause Clay to be overlooked?
