Former WWE writer Vince Russo thinks Joe Hendry is the perfect opponent for Logan Paul

Joe Hendry is a massive babyface, which means fans love him. He was always well-received by the crowd when he appeared on NXT. The Maverick, on the other hand, always gets booed by fans.

Speaking on The Wrestling Outlaws, Vince Russo said he'd like to see a feud between Logan and Joe Hendry.

"Bro, you know who the perfect guy is to bring in?" Russo said. "You know who that match is against? Who they doing business with now? TNA. Who's the perfect guy to bring in for that? Freaking Joe Hendry. That would be the perfect guy to bring in because the people are behind that guy, they hate Logan Paul, they'll hate him more with Hogan. That would be the perfect guy."

Logan currently has a big task ahead of him, as he's set to compete in the Elimination Chamber. It'll be interesting to see when Joe Hendry will make another WWE appearance.
