TNA star Joe Hendry is grateful for the opportunities he has been getting in NXT.
Speaking with Matthew Aguilar for ComicBook, Joe Hendry was asked about the collaboration between WWE and TNA. He emphasized that he has been fortunate, and he was grateful to both companies.
“I’m very grateful to TNA and WWE because TNA have allowed me to explore different avenues to build my brand and therefore help lift TNA’s brand as well,” Joe Hendry said. “I think that I’ve had a very good collaborative working relationship with TNA. So when I bring something to them that I’d like to do, or even they’ll bring something to me that they maybe think I could do, I think that myself and TNA have an opportunity to do historic business for the company. This is what I’ve always wanted to do in professional wrestling, is to have a spot like this, a spot that can help build the company, that can sell tickets, that can bring eyeballs to the product, just to make a positive contribution. So I’m very grateful that TNA are putting me in a position to do that.”
