(4) Ryback and Mark Henry score the same on the strong man weight-lifting competition to smash the NFL record set in 1999, in a controversial finish WWE.com hypes as follows:
"Mark Henry and Ryback broke the NFL Combine record for the 225-pound bench press with a stunning 53 repetitions each during a sold out television taping of SmackDown in Hershey, Penn., on Tuesday night."The World's Strongest Man crushed the record of 51 reps, set by Justin Ernest at the 1999 NFL Combine. His count nearly stood at 54, but WWE referee Scott Armstrong elected not to count the final lift."
Booker T and Teddy Long of course remind the manbeasts of their no-contact policy, as Henry promptly drops the weight bar across Ryback's neck, who rolls around choking, unable to complete his last rep.
