In an interview with Busted Open Radio (via Wrestling Inc), Joe Hendry spoke about getting his start in TNA Wrestling and how crowd reactions led to a long-term deal. Hendry challenges Nic Nemeth for the TNA World title tonight at Bound for Glory. Here are highlights:
On what gave him the confidence to contact TNA: “I was wrestling for a company called North Wrestling, and there was maybe 2-250 people in the crowd, and I did an entrance on Scotty 2 Hotty and the crowd loved it.”
On getting a three-month deal in TNA: “I said ‘I know I can do this; I know I can get over, give me three months to get over. And if I don’t, you can effing fire me.”
On the fan reaction to his return: “I came back through the curtain on the second night and there was a member of [Impact] management who was standing there. But they said ‘We are gonna present you with a long-term deal.'”
