Why Did Natalya Just Endorse TNA Star Joe Hendry Amid Rumors of Joining Tony Khan?

Ricochet has left the building. Will Natalya follow suit the next? The Queen of Harts has been standing in the long queue of the superstars whose contracts are up for renewal, but there’s still no step taken toward resigning to date. Consequently, speculations have run rampant that the 42-year-old could jump ship to Tony Khan’s promotion. The prospect looked enticing and would have followed a similar pattern that have emerged in recent times. However, Natalya herself steered our thoughts into a whole new direction, voicing her appreciation for TNA sensation, Zoe Hendry.

The former SmackDown Women’s Champion also expressed her desire to face off against another NXT bigwig, Gail Kim. Does that mean she’s up for a fruitful TNA run?

Does Natalya’s latest TNA indicate her interest in a TNA run?

In the ‘Paul Levesque era’ of evolved WWE, a lot of changes have taken place, marking a clear distinction from the rigid Vince McMahon era. From bringing back released talents to signing a host of lucrative partnerships, the company has adapted well to the dynamic landscape global of content creation. The latest step taken toward that path includes a first-ever WWE-TNA working relationship, leading to a series of crossovers. The collaboration is expected to bring more eyeballs to both promotions. TNA superstars like Joe Hendry, Josh Alexander, and Leon Slater also stand in the center space of WWE’s interest. Igniting that spark even more, Natalya wrote, ‘‘The thing about The Dungeon… you just never know who’s gonna show up. I believe in @joehendry! Very proud of your hard work tonight, Joe—”

So, it legibly indicated more of Hendry’s rumored WWE arrival rather than Natalya’s TNA move. Recently, Hendry, 36, has also been name-dropped in the WWE programming, and here’s how.

WWE is cooking up to bring Zoe Hendry into the fold

After Jordynne Grace’s NXT involvement, another potential wrestling crossover sparked the attention when TNA’s Zoe Hendry was referenced during the 6/10 episode of Monday Night Raw. When the Scotsman addressed his rival Damian Priest, Pat McAfee from the commentary table uttered the famous Hendry catchphrase, ‘Say his name and he appears.” Acknowledging the nod from WWE, Hendry took to his Twitter to post a photo resembling his famous theme song and tagged McAfee as a sign of counter-approval.

It will be interesting to see when Hendry makes his highly hyped-up NXT debut. Coming to Natalya, her future with WWE still hangs in balance with the officials, deciding to take ‘sometime’ before locking things up.
