Joe Hendry Praises Kenny King as the Most Underrated Wrestler in the World Today
– During a recent interview with The Miami Herald’s Jim Varsallone, Impact Wrestling Digital Media Champion Joe Hendry discussed his upcoming title defense against Kenny King this weekend at Slammiversary 2023. Below are some highlights (via Fightful):
Joe Hendry on Slammiversary being a showcase for Impact: “It’s a show for us. This is gonna be a showcase for what we do. The card is absolutely stacked from top to bottom. The fact that you have myself and Kenny King on the Countdown to Slammiversary shows you how stacked this show is gonna be. So you’re gonna have to tune in before Slammiversary to see what happens when Joe Hendry faces Stripper Kenny. It’s a huge honor and privilege to be the IMPACT Wrestling Digital Media Champion going into this event. It’s quite surreal for me, actually. I’ve been watching IMPACT Wrestling since 2002, 2003, so to be a part of this event is a huge deal for me.”
On Kenny King: “We gotta be honest, Kenny King is, in my opinion, one of the most underrated professional wrestlers in the world today. His professionalism and consistency over such a long period of time is very overlooked and underrated in my view. I think Kenny King is one of the best wrestlers in the world, and I am one of the best entertainers in the world, so this is gonna be a very exciting contest.”
Joe Hendry faces Kenny King at Slammiversary 2023 on Saturday, July 15. The event will be broadcast live on pay-per-view.
