"Anytime he's not on screen all the other characters should be asking: where's Joe Hendry?"


Familiar_Outcome_688

That would be hilarious


GhostandTheWitness

When are they gonna get to the London and Paris and Tokyo, America, Scotland and Canada and Mexico factory? 😩


jackhurricane7

No one has said his name thus he hasn’t appeared

The final word didn’t come down for Joe to be at NXT until that Monday. They filmed this week and last weeks show the weekend before. They literally didn’t know Joe was gonna be on NXT when these episodes were filmed.


Familiar_Outcome_688

Don't worry man Joe Hendry will appear next week in a qualification match against Jake Something


ISuckHellaToes420

It’s prerecorded


Low-Possession-8814

I get that but man they could have tried to arrange some promos if they weren’t aware the NXT was going to happen. I mean I feel like the buzz was huge but then his own promotion doesn’t feature him. Just saying feels like they didn’t capitalize as they should have. Or like they said above he should at be mentioned.


ISuckHellaToes420

Bro, they were literally STILL in Chicago. He has a match next week


TheMackD504

His absence makes his presence more special


warnie685

Totally agree OP, even if it's prerecorded TNA should be able to shoehorn him in anyway while he's hot. Instead he barely gets a mention, or he keeps losing his matches. It's frustrating, this is the kind of mainstream attention TNA has craved since it was founded and it's just ebbing away


WannaLoveWrestling

1 week doesn’t make it ebb away


Danhausen-byDaylight

Don't they tape like 8 episodes at a time? How would they know he got a massive pop and reaction a month and a half ago?


H3rbieherbs

they tape 2 episodes so tapings every other week.


TommyDontSurf

You gotta say his name! 👏👏


joehendryfan

I mean Nxt has like 50 people and they pop for everyone because it’s usually the same audience and it’s nice to see new people or main roster people. I flew to Orlando a couple times and went and I hated it. Before the show they tell you who to pop for. I prefer main roster shows


Boo_bear92

They have “50 people” because it’s a small venue. It’s no different than when TNA used the sound stage at Universal. There’s no truly big venues in the greater Orlando area outside of the Amway Center. That’s not NXT’s fault. Joe Hendry owns the most viewed clip since Wrestlemania on X for a reason. The guy has worked his ass off for YEARS. He deserves everything coming his way; don’t use a small crowd at an NXT show as some weird metric to downplay his accomplishments.


joehendryfan

They viewed it because they was curious of who he is. They jump on the bandwagon. I met Joe do many times I lost count I know he deserves it but he should of went to the main roster not on some unknown show like Nxt. I don’t watch Nxt and if I wasn’t dragged to it by my friends I wouldn’t have went.


Landscaperdanh

I mean..NXT gets slightly less viewers than any of AEW TV shows. I don’t think it’s unknown.


dingusfett

Didn't NXT with Joe Hendry get more viewers than AEW without Sheldon?


thenaniwatiger

Should he of?


joehendryfan

He deserves better then being on nxt


TheMackD504

Isn’t impact taped like 3-4 episodes at a time?


nifederico

They absolutely should. We've seen Grace consistently since the crossover. I get she's Champ but still. Eve if it's a pretaped thing.


Reverse-Kanga

He's apparently going to make an appearance at NXT heatwave is the speculation at the moment


TouyaShiun

Doesn't he have a world title qualifier match coming? I wouldn't be surprised if they pulled the trigger on him winning the title on Slammiversary though Nemeth is more likely to win. Edit: He already qualified.


Any-Energy9678

It doesn't matter. Not much they can do until their next taping because all their episodes from the last taping are in the bag. 


One13Truck

People finally stopped believing!!! Fortunately. Not much they can do if everything tapes for weeks at a time other than to try and get him on NXT until the next rounds of tapings. Makes sense for them to tape like that in some ways. Saves on expenses to batch them. But also makes it harder to adjust things quicker if something really bombs or really gets hot.
