Newly crowned WWE champion breaks silence after huge title change

A WWE star has been crowned champion after defeating a dangerous opponent. This comes after the star went on a huge run in a tournament.

Triple H introduced the Speed Championship earlier this year, and Ricochet won the title for the first time, defeating everyone else in the inaugural tournament. The star then lost the title to Andrade before he left the company. Since that time, Andrade has held the title and defended it against numerous opponents. The star had been champion since June, but things have now changed once again. After a very impressive run, Dragon Lee won the recent tournament and claimed the title.

Lee is seen as one of the fastest and most athletic stars in the company at this time, and as part of the LWO, he has a lot of potential as well. Before SmackDown came on the air, the star was crowned the new champion as the match was taped. He defeated Andrade, and the video of his victory aired earlier today.

He has now broken his silence. Dragon Lee put out his behind-the-scenes message on X and said that this was just the beginning. Breaking his silence after the win, the star had a lot to say.

"Speed Champion. I've fulfilled another dream. I just want to say thank you all, who love me and support me. Thank you so much. This is for all you. Thank you."

After Dragon Lee's WWE Speed title win, the star will have a target on his back

As is the case with every WWE star who becomes champion, Dragon Lee will have to look out for rivals who will challenge him for the title soon enough. With another tournament about to begin soon, he will have a target on his back.

In WWE, this is his second title win. Dragon Lee is also a former NXT North American Champion. He was defeated for the title by Oba Femi in January of this year, and he's been on the hunt for more gold ever since.

Dragon Lee has a mountain of opponents ready to face him. Whether the masked star will be able to hold onto his WWE Speed Championship remains to be seen.
