TNA World Champion Joe Hendry addressed the possibility of facing 16-time World Champion John Cena during a recent appearance on the Respect the Craft podcast. The discussion centered on potential dream matches for the upcoming Slammiversary pay-per-view.
When asked about the rumored match with Cena, Hendry acknowledged fan interest while placing emphasis on the power of social media in modern wrestling booking decisions.
I mean, look, people know what my dream matches are, and I think that the wonderful thing about wrestling is the fans can use social media to express what they want to see. So I feel like I’ve put it out there. People know what I would like, and it’s up to the fans really, if they want to talk about it. I’ve put that out there.
Hendry’s comments come as speculation about potential Slammiversary opponents continues to grow. The champion’s careful wording neither confirms nor denies ongoing discussions, instead positioning fans as a driving force in potentially making the match happen.
