TNA World Champion Joe Hendry comments on potentially competing in the Royal Rumble match.
Hendry was a key part of the crossover between WWE and TNA in 2024. WWE and TNA announced a multi-year partnership on January 16th, shortly before Hendry won the TNA World Championship at TNA Genesis.
Speaking on Behind The Turnbuckle, Joe Hendry was asked whether fans would see him in the Royal Rumble match.
“This what I’ll say. I had a wonderful experience at WWE, I have only good things to say about this. Could you imagine getting to work with Terry Taylor every day, getting to learn from Shawn Michaels on a daily basis, and now, TNA and WWE are working together,” Hendry said. “This is an amazing thing for the professional wrestling business, and we’re in an era where anything is possible in the world of professional wrestling.
“Anything is possible. But ultimately, here’s the difference. Before, I was a wrestler, but now I’m the TNA Champion, so I have a duty to do what’s best for TNA Wrestling. So hey, if TNA pick up the phone and they tell me, ‘You’ve gotta go,’ it doesn’t matter where they tell me to go, I’m gonna go, and wherever it is, I’ll represent the company well. “
WrestleZone will have coverage of WWE Royal Rumble as it airs on February 1st.
