Then during Big Show's revenge-for-revenge return feud against Henry later that year, when Henry started having issues with Money in the Bank winner [[BryanDanielson Daniel Bryan]], Show was the one who prodded Bryan to cash in against Henry and thus [[{{Hypocrite}} break his promise]] to wait for the next ''WrestleMania'' (although Henry's attacks certainly helped that along). Bryan would try twice against Henry, the first not even getting off the ground and the second being a false alarm. [[RuleOfThree Third time would be the charm]]…against Big Show himself.
