As the TNA and WWE working relationship looks ahead to the future, one TNA star NXT talent is hopeful of working with is Joe Hendy.

This comes from Fightful Select, who noted that Hendry is a name who's been spoken of behind the scenes by NXT grapplers as someone they'd like to lock horns with.

Elsewhere, this past weekend saw Josh Alexander and Leon Slater amongst names NXT had "significant interest" in doing something with, while Steve Maclin was described as a "natural crossover fit" due to how he spent seven years with WWE, six of which were spent in NXT. Of course, Jordynne Grace also continues to impress, with the Juggernaut ultimately coming up short against NXT Women's Champion Roxanne Perez at NXT Battleground last night - although that defeat could be attributed to mild distraction from Tatum Paxley and Ash by Elegance, fka Dana Brooke.

Where Joe Hendry is concerned, the ever-charismatic Scot has put himself in the spotlight in a major way in recent weeks and months, with his I Believe in Joe Hendry theme song getting to #4 in the UK Singles Download Chart back in April.

Speaking of Joe, our own Adam Wilbourn was able to grab some time with the former WCPW Champion last week - which you can find below.
