36-year-old star comments on "insane" viral WWE moment: "I think I can top it"

WWE is no short of talent, but a 36-year-old star recently proved that popularity can be built anywhere. NXT had a few surprises in store for fans earlier this week, and Joe Hendry appeared to give fans an “insane” moment.

The Scottish star has been extremely popular, courtesy of his catchy entrance theme. NXT fans hoped for him to arrive following WWE's recent collaboration with TNA Wrestling, and Joe Hendry did not disappoint fans.

His appearance, which saw him get eliminated from the 25-man Battle Royal almost immediately on the white and gold brand, has gone viral on the internet. It is now the Stamford-based promotion’s most-liked video on X/Twitter since WrestleMania XL.

While talking about his popularity, Hendry said on the Busted Open Radio podcast that the WWE’s collaboration with TNA Wrestling was great for everyone. He added that it was unreal for him to get so many likes on X/Twitter but stated that he could top that moment soon.

"Everybody is winning. The fans are winning. For me to have WWE's most liked video on Twitter since WrestleMania is insane, but I think I can top it. I’m excited for what’s next," Joe Hendry said. [19:44 - 19:59]
