TNA Star Joe Hendry’s Rise in WWE NXT Sparks Controversy Ahead of Title Match with Ethan Page
Joe Hendry, a TNA star, has been making waves in WWE NXT, catching the attention of Hall of Famer Booker T. Hendry is set to face NXT Champion Ethan Page in an upcoming Pay-Per-View event, with former champion Trick Williams serving as the special referee. Booker T has expressed surprise at Hendry’s rapid rise and questions whether he should be in contention for the title so soon.
The match setup has raised some eyebrows, particularly regarding Trick Williams’ role as referee. Williams recently lost the NXT Title to Page in a Fatal Four Way Match at NXT Heatwave, though he wasn’t directly pinned. Booker T suggests that Williams should focus on his own career instead of officiating. The event is part of a crossover between WWE NXT and TNA Wrestling, which also features TNA X Division Champion Zachary Wentz facing his former tag team partner Wes Lee.
