How did Scottish wrestler Joe Hendry become a chart topper?

Do you believe in Joe Hendry? From a wrestler’s entrance music to beating artists like Taylor Swift, Sabrina Carpenter and Dasha, it seems yes, the public do believe in Joe Hendry.

The Scottish professional wrestler saw his song ‘I Believe in Joe Hendry’ reach number four in the official charts, in what he describes as a “series of fortunate random events”.

Now the 36-year-old from Edinburgh is considering his next move - whether projecting his face on the Las Vegas Sphere or writing a song for the first minister of Scotland.

Hendry, who is signed to Total Nonstop Action Wrestling (TNA), was a musician for a decade before becoming a wrestler.

…

Hendry not only has the support of the wrestling community, his family have his back too.

Drew Hendry, the SNP MP for Inverness, Nairn, Badenoch and Strathspey, is his uncle.

He said: "It’s been cracking to see the wrestling community and the wider public get behind Joe, he’s absolutely deserving of the top spot.

“I’ve always believed in him.”

Joe has even offered his musical services to the new first minister.

“If John Swinney had given me enough notice, we could have done ‘I Believe in John Swinney’ for him, that would have been no problem,” he said.

The song.
