Dragon Lee signs with WWE, heading to NXT

WWE has signed 27-year-old Mexican pro wrestler Dragon Lee who will report to NXT starting in January 2023.

The announcement was made by Lee himself last night at the AAA Noche de Campeones show after he and his brother Dralistico beat FTR to win the AAA Tag Team titles. As a result of his signing with WWE, the two immediately vacated the titles.

“An unbelievable athlete who has collected accolades and held championships across the globe… and he’s just getting started,” Triple H wrote. “The next chapter of @dragonlee95’s career begins with @WWENXT!”

Lee had one appearance for AEW, teaming with Andrade El Idolo and his brother Rush in the first round match of the AEW World Trios title tournament against The Elite. Lee, who was pinned in that match, was then attacked by his team mates and had his mask ripped.

The Mexican star has also wrestled for CMLL, Ring of Honor, and New Japan Pro-Wrestling.
