Mark Henry responds to Curt Hawkins calling him an idiot: I know where you live; an apology is due

Curt Hawkins was fired by WWE yesterday and while he was immediately booked by Pro Wrestling Syndicate and has drawn great interest on the independent scene, it's still undoubtedly a difficult time for him. WWE is the big stage, after all, and he was just kicked off it.

That's why he reacted so negatively when longtime WWE employee and former champion Mark Henry sent out a seemingly insensitive tweet, as you can see below:

"@TheMarkHenry: Here we stand. Still here!!! pic.twitter.com/V20Wu0v0Tx" Your colleagues lose their jobs & you tweet that? You're an idiot Mark.

Considering the circumstances, one can understand the reaction, even if it's a bit strong with the lack of context surrounding Henry's words.

Well, he cleared that up in his response to Hawkins.

@TheCurtHawkins First I don't often explain my self to no one!But I had no idea anyone got let go,it's sad.I was asked to post about bday.

Clearing up the situation? Good.

Publicly making remarks that could easily be construed as threats? Not so much.

Here's to hoping no one gets their wig split and these two can work out their issues amicably.
