Joe Hendry has thrown a tantrum backstage on WWE NXT after he lost a major match. He even confronted Shawn Michaels.

Joe Hendry is quickly becoming one of the most popular acts in professional wrestling in TNA. Given his rise, it should come as no surprise that Hendry also caught the attention of WWE.

Tonight on NXT, a battle royal was set to take place to determine the number one contender for Trick Williams' NXT Championship. One of the surprise participants in the match was Hendry. He came out to a massive pop from the crowd. However, his time in the battle royal didn't last long as all 24 men ganged up on him before eliminating him.

A visibly frustrated Hendry confronted Shawn Michaels backstage after the loss, and he had some choice words for NXT's head booker.

"Oh, and if it isn't Shawn Michaels. Was that your idea out there? 24 men against me. Joe Hendry vs. NXT. Well, you know what, Shawn, I can show up anywhere, anytime, on any show. All you gotta do is say this name," said Hendry.

The Hall of Famer responded, "I believe," hinting at Joe's viral theme song.

It remains to be seen if this is a tease that Hendry will make more appearances for NXT.
