Popular star Joe Hendry has sent a message to the WWE Universe following his surprise debut this past Tuesday night on NXT. The veteran competed in the Battle Royal to determine the number one contender for Trick Williams' NXT Championship.

Je'Von Evans won the Battle Royal this past Tuesday night and will be facing Trick Williams at NXT Heatwave. Joe Hendry was eliminated right away after Frankie Kazarian and others teamed up to throw him over the top rope. Ahead of tonight's edition of WWE SmackDown in Chicago, Hendry thanked the fans for making his debut the most viewed video on the promotion's official X (formerly Twitter) account since the beginning of the year.

"Joe Hendry debut is now @WWE’s most viewed X post of the year so far. Thank you for wrestling fans 👏 👏," he wrote.

Ace Steel is currently serving as Joe Hendry's manager in TNA Wrestling. The 36-year-old's popularity skyrocketed after his theme song went viral as a singles track.
