TNA Wrestling star Joe Hendry had invited WWE Hall of Famer Stone Cold Steve Austin to be in his corner for Bound For Glory.
Hendry is set to challenge for Nic Nemeth’s TNA World Championship at Saturday’s (October 26) pay-per-view, with Frankie Kazarian acting as the special referee.
With the popular star previously inviting Eminem to the show, Hendry has now called for Steve Austin to make his TNA Wrestling debut this weekend.
Noting that this invitation was inspired by Mick Foley, Hendry told TheOneMona:
“So for context, I asked Mick Foley, ‘Have you got any advice for becoming TNA World Champion?’ He says, ‘All you have to do is just make sure you’ve got Steve Austin standing by to crack someone with a chair. I was like, Mick, that’s all I had to do?! Why did no one tell me?
“So, you know, I’ve already invited Eminem down to the show. I’ve been calling out John Cena for about a year. I’ve said I want a confrontation with The Rock. We might as well add Steve Austin.
“Steve, if you’re watching and you have some way to get to Detroit to help me out here. Hopefully, Eminem is going to be in my corner. But if you’ve got Eminem on one side and ‘Stone Cold’ Steve Austin on the other, then I don’t think we need to worry about Frankie Kazarian too much.”
Hendry has wrestled for WWE several times as part of the TNA-WWE crossover, most recently challenging for Ethan Page’s NXT Championship at the September 1 No Mercy premium live event.
