Joe Hendry to Challenge NXT Champion Ethan Page at No Mercy
This week on WWE NXT, Joe Hendry competed in a Triple Threat #1 Contenders match to determine the next challenger to Ethan Page and the NXT Championship. Opposing him were NXT’s Pete Dunne and Wes Lee.
Hendry put his athleticism on display in the early going, leaping over the top rope to take out both of his opponents on the floor. The action continued, which saw several near falls for all three competitors. Hendry had the match won following a Standing Ovation to Dunne but Ethan Page would leave the commentary table to prevent the referee from counting to three. An enraged Hendry then turned his attention to Lee, taking him out of the equation with a Standing Ovation through the table.
As Page continued to pull the referee’s attention away from the match, Dunne blindsided Hendry with the Bitter End. But before he could capitalize, Dunne was taken out by Trick Williams, which allowed Hendry to score the three count on Dunne. Now, Joe Hendry will head to NXT No Mercy on September 1st to challenge Ethan Page for the NXT Championship. Will Hendry become NXT Champion for the very first time? Anything is possible when you BELIEVE.
But the action didn’t stop there. While Joe Hendry celebrated his victory, Wes Lee was attacked by Zachary Wentz, as he sought revenge on his former friend and ally in the Rascalz.
