TNA Star Extends Invitation To WWE Legend Steve Austin

Joe Hendry wants Steve Austin in his corner at TNA Bound For Glory.

At Bound For Glory, Joe Hendry will challenge Nic Nemeth for the TNA World Championship. However, Nemeth might not be the only obstacle to overcome at the event, as Frankie Kazarian will be the Special Guest Referee for the bout.

Recently, Hendry asked Mick Foley for advice on how he could overcome the odds to capture his first World Title. Foley suggested one trick that worked for him more than once, having ‘Stone Cold’ Steve Austin standing by to help out with a steel chair.

Speaking to TheOneMona, Hendry revealed that he had taken the suggestion to heart, and as well as inviting Eminem to be in his corner, asked The Texas Rattlesnake if he would join him at the event.

“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.”
