Former NXT and TNA World Champion Joe Hendry has officially been called as much as “WWE Raw,” in accordance with Michael Cole on commentary on the episode of the red brand following WWE WrestleMania 42, and his first appearance is coming next week. Hendry is ready to perform in concert on the April 27 episode of “Raw.”
While details of Hendry’s performance weren’t made known, he’s used his concert events in a really Rock-like fashion to deal with his rivals through the years. Hendry officially signed with WWE from TNA in November 2025, after working with the developmental brand through the businesses’ partnership.
He became NXT Champion in February after winning the title vacated by Oba Femi in a ladder match. He lost the title after a 60-day reign at Stand & Deliver, during a four-way match involving Ethan Page, Ricky Saints, and the person who would go on to win the gold, Tony D’Angelo.
Hendry is the third star recently called as much as the red brand. On the “Raw” after ‘Mania, Sol Ruca and Ethan Page each officially debuted with matches against Women’s World Champion Liv Morgan and Je’Von Evans, respectively.
