Watch: Dragon Lee Makes First WWE Appearance

ROH

WWE announced the signing of AAA Tag Team Champion Dragon Lee last month.

Lee had just captured the AAA Tag Team titles from FTR alongside Dralistico at the AAA Noche De Campeones event last month, before taking to the microphone and annoucing that he had signed with WWE.

Lee is set to report to NXT in February, and has yet to appear on-screen for WWE in any capacity since announcing his signing.

Lee made his first WWE appearance today on La Previa de WWE, where he spoke about his signing with the company.

He said:

“I feel very happy and excited. I can not believe this. This is something that surprised me a lot. I’m going to do my best like I always have. Representing my country, representing my people, showing all that I have achieved by working hard by being every day in the ring training, going to the gym every single day.

“The time has come, some may not believe this, but every Sunday I bought DVDs of WWE shows. Some of my favorite superstars were Shawn Michaels, Triple H, and Batista. They inspired me to become a WWE superstar. Now my dream comes true.

“I’m going to be in the number one sports entertainment company and I’m happy about it. I’ll give my best. I am going to stand out, as I have done in all the places I’ve been. WWE see you very soon,”

Dragon Lee’s contract is set to be for ‘high tier’ NXT money, but less than the average WWE main roster contract.
