WWE star Wes Lee surprised NXT fans by turning heel for the first time in his career a few months ago. This week, the former NXT North American Champion dropped another big surprise by showcasing a new look and giving up his signature appearance.
Wes Lee entered the developmental brand’s arena when Ethan Page was doing an in-ring promo with Nathan Frazer and Axiom. While All Ego was doing a good job of dividing Fraxiom, Lee came to double down on his efforts. Along with his words, his new look also made a statement.
The 30-year-old star got a new hairdo and had cut his dreadlocks. The look showed him with very short hair as he donned a stylized printed shirt.
The former MSK member has qualified for the next Iron Survivor round and will look forward to a shot at the NXT Championship. However, Wes Lee will have to go through the former gold holder, Ethan Page, his temporary ally Ridge Holland, and Nathan Frazer.
With each wrestler bringing their own pace and fighting style to the match, it would be interesting to see if Lee can get his chance to complement his new look with a new championship.
