Say his name and he appears! So we did, and now Joe Hendry makes his TIJ debut! He shares the story (and pitch to Jimmy Jacobs) behind his initial vignettes and gimmick, and explains how a short-lived telesales job, a few words from Eric Young, and a lesson in songwriting from Queen solidified his act. He talks about the text exchange with TNA that changed his life, how a couple of very well-placed billboards outside the Hydro in Glasgow may have led to his recent NXT appearance, and why being forced to sit home for 2 years during the pandemic ultimately saved his wrestling career. Joe has tales about wrestling Kurt Angle, cutting promos with Shawn Michaels, having a hit song on the charts thanks to Matt Cardona, how he’s come to main event the TNA Slammiversary PPV with Moose, and why he is convinced that he will find himself in the ring with John Cena next year.
