Dragon Lee (wrestler)
Dragon Lee's real name is not a matter of public record, as is often the case with masked wrestlers in Mexico where their private lives are kept a secret from the wrestling fans.[9] He would also participate in boxing; but, as Dragon Lee recalls in a 2015 interview, during his first match he performed a suplex (a wrestling throw) on his opponent and was disqualified.[14] On March 23, 2014, Dragon Lee was one of 16 wrestlers in a tornero cibernetico (elimination) match, hoping to qualify for one of eight spots in CMLL's annual En Busca de un Ídolo ("In search of an idol") tournament.Dragon Lee was one of the eight survivors of the match alongside Cachorro, Cavernario, Guerrero Negro Jr., Hechicero, Star Jr., Soberano Jr. and Super Halcón Jr. and thus qualified for the actual tournament.[23] In January 2016, Dragon Lee made his Japanese debut by taking part in the CMLL and New Japan Pro-Wrestling (NJPW) co-produced Fantastica Mania 2016 tour.[32][33] According to Dave Meltzer, CMLL was not happy with Lee, since he participated in Pro Wrestling Guerrilla's Battle of Los Angeles, after they told him to not work in the tournament.[36] On December 13, 2019, at Final Battle, Dragon Lee defeated Shane Taylor to win the ROH World Television Championship.On December 15, Dragon Lee joined his brother Rush, Amy Rose, and Kenny King in forming La Faccion Ingobernable, turning heel.[37] On January 5, 2017, Dragon Lee made a surprise return to NJPW, attacking Hiromu Takahashi (the former Kamaitachi) and Tetsuya Naito during their match against Kushida and Michael Elgin.[41] In his opening match of the tournament on May 17, Dragon Lee handed Takahashi his first singles loss since returning to Japan at the end of 2016.[43] Dragon Lee returned to NJPW the following October, teaming with Titán in the 2017 Super Jr. Tag Tournament, from which they were eliminated in the first round by Bushi and Takahashi.[46] On April 6, 2019, at the G1 Supercard, Dragon Lee defeated Taiji Ishimori and Bandido in a triple threat match to win the Junior Heavyweight Championship for the first time, and in the process, becoming the third Mexican to hold the title (behind Juventud Guerrera and Místico, who were the first and second, respectively).[49] On October 9, 2021, at Héroes Inmortales XIV, Lee returned for AAA accompanied by his brother Dralístico, challenged Los Lucha Bros (Fénix and Pentagón Jr.) for the AAA World Tag Team Championship, after they had retained the title over Jinetes del Aire (Hijo del Vikingo and Laredo Kid).[50] Lee made his All Elite Wrestling (AEW) debut on the August 17 edition of Dynamite, participating in the first round of the AEW World Trios Championship tournament, where he teamed with La Facción Ingobernable members Andrade El Idolo and his brother Rush to take on The Young Bucks and their mystery partner, who was revealed to be Kenny Omega.[63] On the December 12 episode of NXT, Lee successfully defended the North American Championship in his first title defense against Tyler Bate.[68] In November, Lee joined the Speed Championship #1 contender's tournament, defeating NXT's Tavion Heights and Raw's Akira Tozawa in the quarterfinals and semifinals, respectively.[71] In the late summer of 2018, Dragon Lee was one of the participants in the Mexican version of the Exathlon sports reality show, Dragon Lee was part of the "celebrity/athlete" Exathlon team, competing against a team of amateurs that was shown several days a week on the Mexican Azteca Uno television station.His high risk style has led him to often use a Running frankensteiner throw where he leaps over the top rope and executes the leg scissor takedown on an opponent standing on the apron, sending him to the floor.
