WWE Star Demands Investigation Into Match Result

WWE

A WWE star has taken to social media to demand an investigation into a recent match result, claiming the referee counted too fast.

On the May 21 episode of WWE NXT, Lexis King lost to a man who is seemingly the new client of Mr. Stone in the form of Dante Chen.

Chen was able to put away King in just under five minutes thanks to help from Mr. Stone and, according to King, a fast-counting referee.

The perceived injustice is something that King has commented upon through the power of Twitter, calling upon NXT GM Ava to intervene.

In King’s tweet, which can be seen below this news story, he states:

“That ref counted WAY too fast!!!

“By way of royal decree, I demand this decision be challenged immediately 👑

“Review the footage @avawwe_”

Ava has, at the time of writing, not responded to King’s request, although she has been busy speaking to the Raw and SmackDown GMs as she secures an opponent for Roxanne Perez at NXT Battleground.

She also came between Lola Vice and Shayna Baszler, setting them against each other at the upcoming NXT PLE in an Underground match.

Vice has revealed the reason why she attacked her tag team partner on last night’s WWE NXT.

With Mr. Stone without a client since the release of Von Wagner, the manager has recently commented on his relationship with Chen.

This comes after Stone teased the possibility of reuniting with Chelsea Green, with it also being noted that “there have been pitches” to bring the pair back together.

Chen first reported to the WWE Performance Center in April 2021 following a successful tryout in 2019 with his arrival being delayed by COVID-19.

He made his NXT debut in September 2021 and has featured on 205 Live, NXT Level Up and made his main roster debut in a losing effort against Bron Breakker on the February 16, 2024 episode of WWE SmackDown.

That ref counted WAY too fast!!!

By way of royal decree I demand this decision be challenged immediately 👑
