Joe Hendry Confronts Ethan Page for Shot at NXT Title on Tuesday’s NXT Show

Tuesday’s NXT show featured Joe Hendry confronting Ethan Page and wanting a shot at his NXT Championship.

During the show, Page came out to the ring and grabbed a microphone. Page talked about his victory over Oro Mensah last week and how Wes Lee grew a spine and got rid of some dead weight, in reference to Lee turning heel on The Rascalz. Page stated that he is going to address the audience. Page stated that the NXT Universe wanted Oro to beat him so badly but Oro found out that when Ethan Page says it, it happens. Page stated that he had the skills to back it up and he has every right to call himself All Ego. Page then stated that no one is taking this title from him and he heard Lee chirping and he is not getting the title. Page stated that if Trick can figure out Pete Dunne, he won’t be taking the title from him either. Page then stated that Dunne can break every one of his fingers and it will not loosen his grip on the title. Page stated that the “Era of Ego” will roll on and this is not NXT, its NX-Me.

This led to Hendry’s music playing to interrupt and came out to the ring. Hendry stated that Page didn’t have to say his name and he would just appear. Hendry stated that Page may think you are the talk of NXT because you are the champion. Hendry then talked about Page’s NXT title victory at Heatwave being quickly overshadowed by his face showing up to close the show.

After some more words by Hendry, Page responded stating that he does not have to listen to Hendry and his opinions or rambles. Page told Joe to take his victory from last week and take his ass back to TNA. Page then stated that he does not know why Joe is hanging around in NXT. Hendry responded stating he is here for the same reason everyone else is … to win the NXT Championship. Page responded stating it makes sense. Page stated that everyone believes in Joe Hendry, TNA believes in Joe Hendry, NXT believes in Joe Hendry, the entire world believes in Joe Hendry. Page stated that the only problem is that he doesn’t. After some insults, Page stated that he believes that if Joe is silly enough to come after him for his title, he will expose Joe for the flash in the pan that he is. Hendry responded back talking about how he has not been an overnight success and how he makes believers out of everyone. Joe stated that he will make a believer out of Ethan when he wins the championship and he will take it to London, Paris, Tokyo that was said in rythm to his entrance song. This led to an upset Page leaving the ring and Hendry looking on only for Lee to run out from the crowd and laid out Hendry as Page smiled on.
