Lee was set up as Roderick Strong’s next challenger by defeating Dominik Dijakovic, Damian Priest, and Cameron Grimes in last night’s fatal four-way number one contender’s match. Lee will get his title shot against Strong on the January 22 episode of NXT.
The finish of the number one contender’s match was Lee pinning Grimes after hitting the Spirit Bomb.
