Joe Hendry Says Wrestling Roman Reigns and Randy Orton Proves His Top-Level Status

After winning the TNA World Championship, entering the WWE Royal Rumble, squaring off with Roman Reigns, and facing Randy Orton at WrestleMania 41, Hendry has every reason to feel unstoppable. Speaking with John Powell of SLAM Wrestling, Hendry didnt hold back about how he views his year so far.

You do not get selected to wrestle Roman Reigns if youre not the top level. You do not get hand-selected to wrestle Randy Orton at his 20th WrestleMania unless you know what youre doing, Hendry said. Joe Hendry does not need to pivot. This is full-steam ahead! Were going to do phenomenal business for TNA wrestling. Thats all weve got to worry about. No pivot required. Full-steam ahead for TNA Wrestling and Rebellion is gonna be incredible.

Hendry also made it clear that the respect of legends like John Cena backs up his momentum. Look, if John Cena tells me I did a good job then Im going to go ahead and say that I did a good job. Im going to use Cenas advice as well, he added.

For Hendry, the numbers dont lie. You must pay attention to the metrics and the immediate metric that we have is unless theyve restocked while Ive been on this call, you cannot buy a Joe Hendry T-shirt on WWE.com. Thats a metric that I pay attention to. I look at the amount of video clips that are going out of that moment of me and Randy. If that wasnt an iconic moment, WWE and TNA wouldnt be putting it out multiple times a day, Hendry pointed out.

Joe Hendrys next move is defending the TNA World Title against Ethan Page and Frankie Kazarian at TNA Rebellion, and hes entering that match with serious momentum.

Joe Hendry is proving he belongs at the very top, mixing it up with Roman Reigns, Randy Orton, and John Cenas approvalall while keeping TNA in the spotlight. His year has already been packed with career-defining moments, and hes showing no signs of backing down.
