Nic Nemeth doesn’t have animosity toward Joe Hendry, but he’s not going to just let Hendry take his TNA World Championship at Genesis. The two are set to compete for Nemeth’s title at next month’s PPV, and Nemeth previewed the match on Busted Open Radio.
“I don’t hate him but I’m not just gonna roll over, and if I have to take away [Joe Hendry’s big moment] to solidify a legacy of the show and the company and myself [I’m gonna do it],” Nemeth said (per Wrestling Inc). “This is his shot and if it doesn’t happen here… he’s never gonna be world champion. Or does he get that win, pull it out, hold the title high, and have that moment where everyone’s talking and everyone’s cheering and it’s just a little bit more real than it usually is?”
TNA Genesis takes place on January 19th and airs live on PPV.
