TNA Stars set for multiple NXT episodes leading up to Slammiversary
From Cory Hays, of BodySlam.net:
Sometimes crossovers start quietly — a quick cameo, a run-in that feels out of place until it suddenly doesn’t. This one’s been building for a bit under the radar, but it’s about to become very noticeable across multiple episodes.
TNA talent are set to appear on several upcoming episodes of NXT leading into Slammiversary. Next week, Joe Hendry will face Wes Lee, with interference from The High Ryze setting the stage for Mike Santana to make the save. coming to Hendry’s aid.
As a result, in two weeks’ time, Santana and Hendry will team up to take on Tyson DuPont and Tyriek Igwe. This isn’t a one-off. It’s part of a broader working relationship with key faces from TNA popping up as momentum builds on both sides heading into July.
On Tuesday night, former TNA World Champion Joe Hendry showed up on the LIVE NXT episode to confront TNA World Champion, Trick Williams. A match was also set up for next week between Joe Hendry NXT star Wes Lee.
Now, we have information about further appearances for Joe Hendry, as well as top TNA star Mike Santana, showing up in NXT.
Joe Hendry will kick off TNA iMPACT this week for anybody who didn’t see the episode LIVE last Friday while it was being filmed, but Santino Marella announces that Joe Hendry will challenge for the TNA World Title belt at Slammiversary on July 20th as his contractual rematch.
Mike Santana goes to battle with FIR$T CLA$$ member AJ Francis In a Street Fight on Thursday. Santana intends to have his eyes on the TNA World Title as well.
