Couple Names Newborn Baby After Popular TNA Wrestling Star Joe Hendry

A young couple has proven that they believe in Joe Hendry by naming their child after the popular star from TNA Wrestling. 

The baby boy, Micah Gene Hendry Roberts, was welcomed into the world by Micalah and Lucas Roberts. Speaking to the Daily Star, Lucas shared that the couple split the naming duties with Micalah choosing the first name and Lucas choosing the middle name of the child. The pair, who are fans of the TNA star would quickly grow to love the Hendry name for their child. 

“The name Hendry quickly grew on us and we decided to include it when naming our son. When we found out Micah would be sharing the same birthday as Joe, we knew we made the right choice.”

The ‘Gene’ part of Micah’s name was also a choice that was made by Lucas. Rather than coming from Gene Snitsky or WWE Hall of Famer ‘Mean’ Gene Okerlund though, this name was in tribute to Lucas’ father. 

I Believe In Joe Hendry

It’s hard to ignore the popularity of Joe Hendry in recent months as the Scottish wrestler continues to win over fans both new (in this case VERY new) and old. Hendry’s theme song I Believe in Joe Hendry made it to #1 in the iTunes charts in several countries, even beating the likes of music sensation Taylor Swift. Hendry’s other songs in which he pokes fun at his opponents have also proven popular. 

Hendry’s success with his songs can’t be denied, with non-wrestling fans growing increasingly aware of him. This will no doubt bode well for Hendry’s prospects in the ring, with TNA Hall of Famer Bully Ray even stating that TNA would be wise to consider a title run given Hendry’s popularity.
