Joe Hendry surprised wrestling fans worldwide when he made his WWE NXT debut. His appearance received a vociferous response from the audience in attendance and those watching at home. Hendry entered a battle royal upon his debut match and although the man did not stay in the match for long, he made a solid first impression.

His appearance in the WWE made a splash on media platforms as the video of his NXT debut became the second most liked video of WWE after WrestleMania 40. Now, a blast from the past indicates that Hendry did not undergo his WWE debut. Rather, he made his WWE return.

Recently, a tweet from Wrestlelamia became popular on the internet since it mentions the instance when Joe Hendry first appeared in WWE. This tweet featured a snapshot of the precious one, with his NXT debut on one side and a segment he performed with Rusev all the way back in 2014 on the other side.

Although Joe Hendry is now in NXT, no one knows if this match will take place, and if so, when. It will take Hendry a long time to establish himself in the main roaster and then start a feud.

Only time will tell what Hendry will do in WWE. Nevertheless, we can rest assured that his next appearance would make more of an impact than his first ones. What do you make of the resurfaced picture involving the TNA talent? Let us know in the comments section below.
