Joe Hendry Wins Chaotic ‘Miracle on 34th Street Fight’ Over The Miz in SmackDown Debut

His blue-brand appearance is being treated as a debut, with his full-time move from NXT unconfirmed.

Overview

  • Hendry opened the broadcast in the ring with a Jingle Bells parody that taunted The Miz.
  • General Manager Nick Aldis converted the matchup into a no-disqualification Miracle on 34th Street Fight.
  • Holiday props fueled the action throughout, including a Christmas tree, wrapped gifts and candy-cane kendo sticks.
  • Otis, Akira Tozawa and a costumed Easter Bunny—revealed as R-Truth—joined the fray to overwhelm The Miz.
  • Hendry sealed the win after a guitar shot and a chokeslam through a table, as The Miz asserted his locker-room leader role following John Cena’s retirement.
