Joe Hendry admits he is in a tough spot in WWE.
The 38-year-old was one of the most exciting prospects when he officially joined the company in late 2025. The officials also seemed eager to capitalize on his popularity as Hendry had a run with the NXT title and he also made his SmackDown debut only a couple of months after signing a contract with the promotion.
Things have not gone his way in the last few months, however, as the Scottish star has suffered a number of losses on TV recently. This includes losing to Bron Breakker in a 1 minute 32 seconds during a Raw in August and then getting squashed by Bronson Reed in just 32 seconds during a Main Event episode last month.
My Goal Is To Be a Champion: Joe Hendry

Joe Hendry opened up about his recent predicament during an interview with Michael Fairman Channel. In the interview done before his loss to Reed, Hendry admitted that he is in a tough spot right now. Though the former TNA World Champion reiterated his belief that he can become a top draw for WWE:
I’m in a tough spot right now. So, I was in a feud with Logan Paul. He got injured, so I couldn’t take that where I needed to go… My goal is to be a champion in WWE. When I got to NXT and became NXT Champion, I knew I could do it. I know that I can be a top star in WWE. I have the tools to do it, so that’s what I’m trying to do.
Joe Hendry had been feuding with Logan Paul in May, but they never had a singles match as the YouTube star ended up suffering a torn triceps during a SNME match that has kept him out of action since then.
According to a recent report from WrestleVotes, Hendry’s name has been brought up internally while discussing potential tag team pairings in WWE. So it’s possible we can see Hendry getting a career refresh in the tag division in the coming times.
