The WWE Universe can expect to see much more of TNA Wrestling’s Joe Hendry in NXT after his surprise appearance on the July 16, episode.
During the show, Hendry appeared after his name was said by Vic Joseph. The popular wrestler served as the special guest commentator for Gallus’ bout against The Rascalz (Wes Lee, Zachary Wentz, & Trey Miguel). The reunited Rascalz were victorious in an exciting six-man tag-team match.
In a backstage segment, a frustrated Gallus brought up Hendry and said his name. Just as his song suggests, Hendry appeared and said he’s become the most talked-about superstar in NXT. He went on to say that he will be sticking around because he likes it in NXT.
