Nic Nemeth is keeping his head high after dropping the TNA World Heavyweight Championship to Joe Hendry at TNA Genesis 2025. A day after the match, the former champion finally addressed the loss.
Taking to Twitter/X on January 20, Nemeth shared his thoughts in a short but meaningful message, writing, “It was an absolute honor.” He attached a photo of himself with the TNA World Title, marking the end of his reign with a moment of reflection.
The match itself was a wild one. Held at the Curtis Culwell Center in Garland, Texas, it had all the makings of a classic, with Hendry stepping up against Nemeth in a fight that had the crowd fired up. From Ryan Nemeth sneaking in with a ringside ticket to Frankie Kazarian trying to interfere, the drama was high. But in the end, Hendry powered through, hitting a fallaway slam and Standing Ovation to score the win and become the new champion.
Nic Nemeth might not be holding the TNA World Title anymore, but he’s not acting like a man who’s done. With just a simple message, he let everyone know that he’s proud of what he did—and that usually means there’s more to come. Whether he sticks around to chase Hendry down for a rematch or has his eyes set on something bigger, one thing’s for sure—this isn’t the last we’ve heard from Nic Nemeth.
