Hendry had quite an explosive return and targeted Trick Williams, but Lee got himself involved, and this is Hendry&#8217;s chance to showcase himself as an anchor for NXT and TNA.<\/p>\n<p>Lee will have the rest of High Ryze and maybe even Williams&#8217; assistance. Quite a task ahead for Hendry, but the former TNA World Champion is up for it. This will be quite the match, and it could intrigue both NXT and TNA audiences.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">.<a  href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/joehendry?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">@joehendry<\/a> returns to action in an NXT ring when he takes on The High Ryze&#39;s <a  href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/WesLee_WWE?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">@WesLee_WWE<\/a> NEXT WEEK on <a  href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/WWENXT?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">#WWENXT<\/a>!<\/p>\n<p>\ud83d\udcfa 8ET\/7CT on <a  href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/TheCW?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">@TheCW<\/a> <a  href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/fJ1tVxi4Iq\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">pic.twitter.com\/fJ1tVxi4Iq<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; WWE NXT (@WWENXT) <a  href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/WWENXT\/status\/1938673737999753324?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">June 27, 2025<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h2>Jasper Troy vs. Yoshiki Inamura<\/h2>\n<p>Jasper Troy and Yoshiki Inamura are set to meet in a number one contender match this week.
